    @poorlyhidden @mjs_DC @ishapiro Well, the “murder” position is an invention of the last 30-odd years, without any historical, moral, or theological basis. And if they actually believed it, they would be morally obligated to do the things they would do to prevent a murder. It’s an invitation to terrorism.

      @poorlyhidden @mjs_DC @ishapiro To wit, if an anti-abortion activist went around killing abortion doctors about to do the deed, and went to the courts and the Vatican with a defense of “abortion is murder,” neither the law nor his church would support such a defense. So despite all the rhetoric, it’s nonsense.

        @poorlyhidden @mjs_DC @ishapiro Back in the real world, using deadly force to prevent murder can be and is often a defense, morally and legally.
