    Abortion, We Are Against It

    Heck no. A decade ago, Lila Rose posed as a 14-year-old prostitute and visited a Planned Parenthood with her "pimp" and a hidden camera. They basically ignored the fact that she was underage and being trafficked for sex. Abortionists insist they are providing a medical service, but they also...

    Sure he can. He's seriously wrong on a crucial moral issue, though.

    Could a Christian Get Away with Murder?

    I think we would all agree that a genuine Christian could be capable of committing a murder. The original question was more complex: whether a genuine Christian could commit a murder, get away with it, and conceal his guilt all the way to the grave.

    Is Franklin Graham Right?

    For all his other woo, Smellin has also consistently denied being a Democrat.

    You didn't even raise the funding issue in your previous post, so it doesn't answer my question.
