I'm Voting for the Children

The beginning and conclusion of the article below is provided here to give you an idea of the author's point of view. People often accuse pro-life voters of being single issue voters. The intention of our pro-murder critics is to dismiss us as irrelevant because we are so myopic, irrational, narrow minded, and extreme. Keep in mind the issue that we are speaking about is the extermination of 50 million or more infants since 1973. To dismiss pro-life voters as irrelevant is to think of 50 million lives as expendable, unimportant. The moral bankruptcy of this is so apparent that I find it astounding we still need to say this!

"Commentary: I'm Not Voting for a Man, I'm Voting for Generations of Children and Their Right to Live" by Randy Alcorn, guest columnist

As a Christian, should we vote for who we think should lead our country solely based on their stance on abortion?

The Bible is emphatically clear on when human life begins. On the same issue, science is equally clear.

Every Christian should take these teachings seriously. Is the unborn an innocent human being? If you claim to be pro-life, then your answer is yes. Is abortion the shedding of innocent blood, the taking of human life created in the image of God? If you say you are pro-life, your answer must be yes.

So, is the candidate’s stand on the issue of shedding innocent blood important enough to disqualify him as a candidate? Yes. While a single issue can’t qualify a candidate, it can disqualify him. In my opinion, this issue clearly disqualifies Barack Obama.

(Much of this article has been edited out of this post due to its length.)

But PLEASE don't just mindlessly say "I'm pro-life" then contradict that statement by saying you are supporting a candidate for president who is utterly committed to not only maintain legalized abortion through policy and appointment of judges, but who also HAS PROMISED to try to reverse pro-life state legislation passed in the last 30 years.
