No we use the common sense God gave us to know right from wrong, and it was VERY wrong for the Dr to destroy innocent lives on a daily bases,, you can't keep murdering and shedding innocent blood without justice coming back to you.... and if you will read history it is our wonderful Government who oppressed blacks and women and many other people ....
Do you really think Jesus would approve of the Dr killing babies daily??? Jesus says
“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 15 I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” 16 And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them
This doesn't sound like God or Jesus would be okay with killing children on a daily bases
Some Christians Praise Dr. Tiller's Death: Do certain Christians use religion to justify violence?

Christians have used the Bible as justification for violence and bigotry. Christians have oppressed women and blacks before their respective movements and now smut efforts to have gay marriage legalized.
Ever more, the death of "Tiller the Killer," the infamous abortion doctor from Kansas, has received praise from the Christian community, claiming that it is better that Dr. Tiller was killed, compared to how many "babies" would otherwise have died at his hands through abortions.
Despite the teachings of Jesus, do Christians use the Bible to justify their own bigotry and/or violence?

an individual "spiritual walk" however is quite different...that's the journey we should strive for, not listening/following Big fundamental, far right Religious Corp Gods.....who suck in all those churchgoers...
Many are sheep (I used to be one) who cannot believe anyone, or a pastor would teach or preach a lie.
But innocent following of interpretation and fear of people policies ("God is not where fear is") generates hate and violence, often seeming like "the way to go" ...
Others are just greedy sons of guns who know exactly who they are taking advange of for personal rewards.
Both these have played roles in the bloodiest wars and murder of the innocents throughout history.
Faith built on hope will take you a long, long way - my point we really don't know why people do what they do. Just for the record, I was not questioning your motives, just stating a fact.
"The road to destruction is wide and MOST people travel it, but the path to righteousness is narrow, and FEW it be that find it."
If we just worked on our own life and path, relationship with God, rather than pointing to the sin of others (or what we might THINK ONLY in our HEADS is the sin of others) anf trying to CONVERT the world - perhaps the world would be a better place today.
I believe it is the difference between organized religion and policies and true "spirituality."
I believe we are physical/sexual, emotional, intellectual, SPIRITUAL beings, the human race.....and God asks us to walk a spiritual life with God, which the scriptures definition of "God" is "God is love" and "God is a spirit."
Jesus was a human, with the Spirit of God born in him: "God robed him/herself in flesh and was born and dwealt among men" - So Jesus was fully man and fully God.
Then, believers received the opportunity by faith to accept that spirit, the Holy Spirit (which IS the spirit of Christ) - and THAT act transforms us to understand love in new ways and boundaries as we walk, striving to live an ever growing "spiritual" life path ("The holy spirit WILL teach you all things" we read), present tense, as we humans generation after generation learn more about the heights and depths of love.
You ain't saying nothing but a word (which is the truth.) Except I just like to call both groups religious folk.
This is not a argument anyone should have.
Everyone has a right to life.
Frankly if all the pro-abortion people had any sympathy for the one million plus babies aborted in the US and tossed into a bin every year, maybe I could understand your outrage. But you pro abortion people have iron hearts to begin with. You feel no compassion for the murdered babies. Why should I care what you think of me for not caring about the death of this one slime bag? May this slime bag's soul burn in hell for eternity.
But Tiller himself was a man whose very livelihood was based in one of the most violent legal acts imaginable. This man held wiggling babies down with his own hands while punching shears into the base of their skulls and sucking their brains out. He cut infants apart limb from limb. It's kinda difficult to have sympathy for someone like that.
Meanwhile all fingers are pointing at the all pro-life people who were not involved and Tiller's former friends and business partners avoid scrutiny. Tiller had close ties to Kathleen Sebelius who has politcal stardom in her eyes and Tiller was not the brightest bulb in the box.
I wonder if good of Kathy didn't arrange to have Dr. Tiller done away with. Better to leave a body trail than a trail of evidence that might surface later when it's inconvenient.
Does a bear shit in the woods?
Why do you ask?
Yes I know what it is
