On the Killing of an Abortion Provider

Dr. George Tiller, a late-term abortion provider, was shot to death this morning at his church, where he was serving as an usher.

I certainly hope the murderer who killed him doesn’t think he represented those of us who value the sanctity of life. This killing was a senseless tragedy, and it’s a sick, twisted way to emphasize commitment to pro-life ideals—again, assuming that’s what it was. If it’s wrong to destroy unborn babies, then it’s unbiblical to murder a full-grown human. And in a house of worship, no less.

If the killer declares that there’s an association between his actions and pro-life beliefs, I hope the pro-life community will resolutely condemn this action and see that he’s prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Two wrongs don't make a right.
