One who does not confuse religious doctrine with spirituality.

Perhaps he believes he is doing the right thing.

Please explain. It says that he attended the Reformed Lutheran church. Presumably, it follows the teaching of the Bible. Christ specifically said that "He who does unto the least of these, does unto me." How can a late-term abortion doctor follow the teachings of Christ, and do the "job" that he does? They are in direct conflict with each other.

So did Hitler, Eichmann, Mengele. This is another Holocaust, were we are sacrificing the unborn on the alter of humanism. I disagree with the killing of the abortion doctor, but you reap what you sow.

I don't see what all the moralizing here is all about.

Some of the most cold blooded Mafia hit men and hit men in general who would kill you or I for a price are the most loving fathers and devout churchgoers and seemingly nicest people you would ever meet. It all depends on your perspective.

To them its just a job, nothing personal at all. As a matter of fact I knew one who just as he was about to pump a few rounds of a 22 into his victims head would tap him on the shoulder and say "excuse me sir this is nothing personal".

In this case its just murder plain and simple like all the others. If you agree with his politics you publicly condemn him and privately cheer him and if you don't approve of his politics you just condemn him period.

If you want to stop that, stop science and all the monitoring of pregnancies and - most importantly stop scientific interest in malformations.
Basically a woman only has the choice to keep her legs together but that wouldn't please you guys either, would it?

Great answer.

One murderer dead, lets hope they catch and fully prosecute the other.

Absolutely, but there are many people in many professions who you could say the same of. Any one who has killed, including soldiers, for example.

I think my answer was pretty apt.

I imagine you do lots of things other people don't agree with, but that doesn't stop you doing them. An abortionist is not breaking the law, if he feels what he is doing is morally justified and can be married to his religious beliefs - then it is not my place or yours to judge him.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

This seems like a very simple, legal issue to me. Roe vs. Wade clearly states that abortion is legal. Killing someone because they do something you do not agree with is not. When you do this, you should be caught, given a fair trial and judged by a group of your peers, and, if found guilty, punished to the fullest extent that the law allows. The beauty of living in a free and democratic society is that if we do not agree with the laws of the land, we can vote for individuals who believe in kind and work to have those laws changed, we do not randomly execute people because their beliefs differ from our own. Throughout history people have committed various hideous acts and justified them through religon, in fact one need only turn on the television to find several cases on a daily basis. Our laws allow for freedom of speech, religon, political affiliations, etc...including ending a pregnancy prior to term. I find it very funny that many, present company excluded, would twist these laws to fit their own being. The most interesting thing I find is when a man tells a women what she can and cannot do with her own body, as I believe to date no man has ever carried a pregnancy to term.

I mean no disrespect towards anyone in this post and apologize if this or anything I've ever written has offended anyone on this board. I truely enjoy the ideas and information shared within.
