Christian is as Christian does by Gary Fecto

There is little doubt as to America's feelings of disappointment and frustration when observing our economic distress. Many of us feel the pains of depression every morning at the gas pump, or as we stay at home on that beautiful 80 degree day. Those of us that were frivolous prior to this juncture are learning to count our pennies. A good number of us look past our dysfunctional congress towards President Bush and pray his successor will bring some economic reprieve.

Barack Obama, to many, is the only viable solution for our financial discourse, for that matter, Obama's change mantra is touted as a cure all from social disparity to international policy and that may be. The fact that John Mccain's policy's are vastly different from George Bush's, accept in an Obama diatribe, doesn't matter.

Well for me and my fellow Christians out there, it matters. During the next presidential term, supreme court justices will be appointed. John Mccain is on the record as saying he hopes to see Roe v. Wade overturned, while Mr. Obama enthusiastically vows, "I made it equally clear that I will never back down from making sure that women have their reproductive rights here in this country -- that's what's at stake in this election."

“Reproductive rights” is a horribly misleading term, it makes it sound as if the argument is ones choice to reproduce, instead of ones accountability for ones choice. Abortion, is an atrocious reprehensible method for literally killing millions of innocent pre born babies, of which more than 40% can survive out of the womb at time of termination. This is a sin.

Mr. Obama has a 100% rating from planned parenthood. Planned parenthood battles for the abortion of any kind and at any term, they even debated avidly for abortions on teens without parental consent. If not for the disheartening research I have done, I would never,ever, believe the lengths planned parenthood will subject the pre born to. The most devastating of all is partial birth abortions, a baby is extracted almost completely from the female , late in her pregnancy, and to put it mildly, they are killed!

We as Christians cannot differentiate ourselves from whom we vote for, just as he cannot differ from his beliefs. We can't support sin and not be sin. John Mccain might overturn Roe v. Wade, Barack Obama will not, he is a supporter of abortion, at any term, 100%, ask planned parenthood. We as Christians need to show the world our values and integrity are not compromised by political justifications.How can we endorse Obama but not what he endorses?
