Right, so I don't lobby the govenrment or try to influence its elections and policies.
But I can still hold an opinion that murder should be illegal.
As do I, but we have far better ways to stop it than to use the state.

On this forum, there are Anabaptists who say they do not agree with abortion-infanticide-euthansaia, etc., but vote for it anyway. When questioned, they explain, “yes-but,” there are more pressing wrongs that justify their votes.
Some don’t vote, but agree with those who do. Or, something like that. It becomes confusing.
But, it seems to boil down to: conservatives are bad in general, Trump is particularly evil.
(In my view) this thread’s subject line is a false premise. Also confusing-distracting.
(In my view) altho the subject line is based on The Stones’ article, it might read more honestly if something more like, “False Idols - Christians beware of grave sins.”
A lot because (i think) everything about The Stones’ existence hovers around idol worship.

J.M.,
i believe you are a medical physician?
In order to practice medicine, if gov mandated you to perform abortions-infanticide, and/or refer patients to abortionists, whether they were interested or not, how would you respond?
