The view from outside the bubble



Please take this question seriously. It is not asking whether or not your local church does any good at all... It's just asking you to consider whether or not your local church is playing an active part in the abolition of human abortion. 
If you took your local church and duplicated it a thousand times over, would that effect the practice of child sacrifice at all, or would it only increase the purchase of Christian books and Pews?

Please take this question seriously. It is not asking whether or not your local abolitionist-only church does any good at all... It's just asking you to consider whether or not your local abolitionist-only church is playing an active part in the abolition of euthanasia, female genital circumcision, sex trafficking, child prostitution/child pornography, &c.

If you took your local abolitionist-only church and duplicated it a thousand times over, would that effect the practice of euthanasia, female genital circumcision, sex trafficking, child prostitution, honor killings at al, or would it only increase the purchase of AHA gear?

  1. But we already know the basic response from one prominent abolitionist - "...get back to me when deaths from these exceed a few thousand per year..."

    Also duplication of the local churches a thousand times over would entail more people in Christ's kingdom, which would mean fewer people in Satan's kingdom contemplating abortion as a live option, meaning the impact on the practice of child sacrifice would be substantial.

    He obvious didn't think his subject through, which is a notable tendency for AHA folks. Their sound-byte rhetoric is superficial and calculated for shock value and emotionalism, but doesn't do well under thoughtful, careful analysis.
