Here, by far, is the most important issue for you and I as Believers. I 
agree that it's a canard to argue that abortion should be safe. It's 
murder and it should be very hard to do, and should involve tremendous 
risks. Murderers (aborting mothers) deserve no more consideration than 
we give to terrorists, lynching mobs, etc. That's the Word of God.

Yet all the enforcement in the world will not be redemptive on its own. 
If we do not make the message clear, and to some extent, unavoidable, we 
have failed. Sporting a bumber sticker with "Abortion is Murder" needs 
to be matched by at least one other that says "Jesus Saves Even Murderers".
