Why are most Christians so pro-life when it comes to abortion?

Why are most Christians (ie. not those on this site) so pro-life when it comes to abortion...but also such huge warmongers (ie. anti-life) ?
It's like they can't reason for themselves and notice this huge glaring contradiction...

Because.. We love life.......... Nuff said........

The Bible and Life
Life is in the blood. Until there is blood there is no life.
My 2 cents.
Speaking only from my little corner of the world, Christians that I know are Pro-Life, because they believe life begins at conception. The Spirit of a human is alive at the point of conception.
On the WAR part of the question: In the Old Testament, G-d many times told His People to go to war against certain enemies, usually for worshiping false gods. King David was a warrior before he was king.
Also in the Old Testament, there are rules for certain sins that G-d demands the offender to be killed. (This is why many Christians believe in capital punishment for murderers and pedophiles etc.) Governments had a G-d given right to fight enemies and punish sin.
As we take each issue and "pass it thru the cross" we learn of forgiveness of sins thru our Lord Jesus Christ. The adulterer is not stoned, she is forgiven and told SIN NO MORE.
Good Answer Debbie! But there's more to it...
Also, realize that the "peoples" that The LORD had Moses, Joshua, and Israel, go after, that were in the Land, were Nephilim. Read close you will see it...So it was, at times, way more than they just worshiped other gods...
Nephilim: Genesis 6 (of course, these destroyed by the Flood), Numbers 13:33
Emim: Deuteronomy 2:10
Rephaim: Deuteronomy 3:11
Anakim: Joshua 11:21
All of these were to be totally destroyed because they were the offspring of fallen angels and human women.

I'll
take that as a no.
Silly
Some Christians operate as a group. They are powerful. The stupid shit they do effects me and others who don't believe the myth they do. What we are witnessing here in this thread are Christians that can't handle me pointing out what millions of Christians ARE REALLY doing, AS A GROUP. they are using their understanding of Christianity to justify their actions. It matters. Grow up.
Side note...
hey, did you see Fedor knock Brett Rogers out the other day? I think Fedor can beat the new world order himself!
"It is no measure of health to be adjusted to a profoundly sick society." - Krishnamurti
A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves.
It was awesome.
However, Krishnamurti would do more. That man was a saint.
I think the poster
is simply asking why some Christians are pro life and pro war. There seems to be quite a few here in the US. Like millions. So I don't think he wants a biblical lesson, etc. Just a straight answer. How can so many Christians be pro life and pro war at the same time?
There IS NO ANSWER!
Someone PLEASE plug this guy back in! There IS NO STRAIGHT ANSWER! It's an intangible! Human beings are INHUMANE. That's one of the curses of humanity! People are flawed! They have always been. Always will be. Is it beyond you to objectively consider that MAYBE "all Christians" are not in this category, but SOME are? And they always will be as long as individuals are free-thinking (tongue-in-cheek).
Fedor, if you dislike the war......PROTEST IT! Bashing those that don't protest it when you think they should is cowardice at best! You'll never change their minds or stop them from funding and supporting it by whining on this thread that has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE THREAD TOPIC!
Silly boy,
That's what we are exploring. Some of us have heard specific reasons why some Christians support the wars. WE are discussing this topic. You becoming hysterical is embarrassing.
you should read the topic again.
Call me names....
That shows your arguement is hollow!
Why is water wet?
Hysterical is an adjective.
Names by definition are nouns.
CHA-CHING!
CHA-CHING!
Mass hysteria.

What does it say about a society when women are willing to destroy their own offspring? What does it say about the value of the wonder of human life?
Some people today may copulate like cats or dogs, but that doesn't make their offspring as expendable as puppies and kittens.
Actually, some abortion supporters are more offended at the killing of puppy or kitten than they are a nascent human.
What I wonder is how pro-abortion people can fail to understand the difference between the innocence of the unborn and the guilt of murderers.
They will support abolition of the death penalty and unlimited abortion almost in the same breath.
And don't come back with the callousness of some self-professed Christians toward other peoples (when they used to send their sons and daughters as missionaries to those same people groups.) That is indeed a conundrum. They have lost their way, as Ron Paul would say.
Well, you see. If there's no poor unwanted kids with no other
choice, wherever would the military get kids to fight wars. You have to be pro-life if you want to fight good wars. Duh.

OK Mike Lawson.......
but for a different view from the typical neo-con, I present, once more with feeling... www.feministsforlife.com
(I basically agree with these ladies on everything, but I think capital punishment is valid in the case of pre-meditated violent crimes)
-I favor extending to Israel the same honest friendship that Jefferson and the Founding Fathers urged us to offer to all nations. ...This means I also favor discontinuing foreign aid to governments that are actual or potential enemies of Israel,--Ron Paul
But that man should play the tyrant over God, and find Him a better man than himself, is astonishing drama indeed!~~D. Sayers
There is no difference between an authoritarian government from the right or the left...F. A.Schaeffer
I'm really offended by that group
There was a LONG list of women leaders they did not mention. The word feminist SUCKS. I should say that. It's a collectivist word that divides women.
Unwamted pregnancy should not be a woman's problem. It should be the problem of BOTH the man and woman, and to do that, laws must be made that terminate BOTH from another unwanted pregnancy.
Put laws on the books that provide abortion with sterlization (including the ability to AFFORD to reverse) we'll slow down abortion dramatically.
Im sure many men would think thwice before discharging sperm into a woman they had NO intendtion of impregnating if they understood, that the discharge could lead to a vasectomy.
It's time to play hardball, and that's how to play.
WE ARE GOING TO WIN!

It Is Simple
Abortion is murder
TheKingIsComing
And, playing devil's
And, playing devil's advocate for a moment...
I don't think you'll find any pro-choicers who knowingly support the idea of murder. The real difference between you and them is that they disagree as to when life actually begins. "Abortion is murder" is a non-argument if you are speaking to someone who doesn't see abortion as taking a life. Unfortunately, most pro-lifers and pro-choicers fail to see this distinction, and thus get absolutely nowhere while attempting to debate the issue.
So is war if it isn't
So is war if it isn't strictly self-defense.
An Interesting Quiz
How would you respond in these situations?
1. A preacher and his wife are very, very poor. They already have 14 kids. Now she finds out she’s pregnant with the 15th. They’re living in tremendous poverty. Considering their poverty and the excessive world population, would you consider recommending she get an abortion?
2. The father is sick with sniffles, the mother has TB. Of their four children, the first is blind, the second has died, the third is deaf, the fourth has TB. She finds she’s pregnant again. Given this extreme situation, would you consider recommending abortion?
3. A white man raped a 13-year-old black girl and she’s now pregnant. If you were her parents, would you consider recommending abortion?
4. A teenage girl is pregnant. She’s not married. Her fiancé is not the father of the baby, and he’s upset. Would you recommend abortion?
In the first case, you would have killed John Wesley, one of the great evangelists in the 19th century. In the second case, you would have killed Beethoven. In the third case, you would have killed Ethel Waters, the great black gospel singer. If you said yes to the fourth case, you would have declared the murder of Jesus Christ!
God is the author of life, and He has givenevery single individual supreme value. Each life—whether inside or outside the womb—should therefore be valued by us. God knows the plans He has for each individual and has written in His book all the days ordained for us before one of them came to be. When we presume to know better than God who should be given life, we are putting ourselves in the place of God and are guilty of idolatry.
What is wrong with you people?
The poster ask about Christians that are pro-life and pro war. He was wondering how they can be both and you ramble on about your God having everything figured out and if we think we know better, we think we are god, blah, blah, blah. Just answer the question, Christian. Pro life and pro war, how does God feel about that?
You just blew the statistical likelyhood of someone famous
being born.
CHA-CHING!
CHA-CHING!
I will only post one comment on this thread
one time a Sufi thinker was asked to what religion he belongs his answer "I will tell you my friend when you tell me to which religion does God belong"...
How about some activism? - look up my
