Abolish Human Abortion #fundie facebook.com

"I recently sat in on a hearing with a referee of the Oklahoma Supreme Court. The subject of the hearing was the ACLU protesting an Abolitionist petition to treat abortion as murder. Now, being the Godless and humanistic group that they are, the ACLU fully relied upon case law and judicial precedence. They did not make any appeal to a moral standard or any sort of objective truth. But rather, as you would expect from the pagans at the ACLU, they relied only upon the whims of man. The twisted, subjective, ever changing, wisdom of man.

Now, keep that in mind while reading this article from Joe Carter of The Gospel Coalition. Being on a website called so boldly "The Gospel Coalition", and knowing that the writers and pastors who form the said coalition claim to be subservient to the Word of God, as opposed to the wisdom of man, one would think that this article would be saturated with proof texts and an exegetical examination of the question. One would think that the Gospel Coalition would not be looking to the same institutions and principles that the depraved ACLU so fully relied upon. The sad truth is that while reading this article I was continuesly reminded of the hollow, subjective, and cowardly arguments the ACLU made against Abolition.

Whenever any judicial/ethical question like this is raised, we as Christians must first ask this foundational question, "by whose standard?" I believe we all know how The Gospel Coalition has answered this question. Clearly not God's standard. They are plainly relying upon the same standard as the ACLU. The same standard as any humanistic institution. This is a mockery of justice, logic, and God."
Abolitionist John Andrew Reasnor

"Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. For the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written, 'He catches the wise in their craftiness,'"
1 Corinthians 3:18-19
