Regardless of an association or how they have persecuted you and/or your kind, you have to look at the situation and derive the reasonings behind it. Saying GOD said so isn't an honest reason being put forth. Saying life starts with conception and all human life should be protected is.

I agree with this view. From my understanding, christians are supposed to be free responsible people. So that does allow us to give some personnal understanding to any given commands. Anyone claiming life is a simple issu solved by a single command and then a simple law is certainly someone highly suspicious. Should abortion be forbidden, or should they be some rules to be sure that the mother is knowing exactly what she's about to do? Well, it really is a hard question. My guess is that their is no good answer, 10/10, A+. But we must choose one. If war is a complex reality we have to deal with, then same goes for abortion. Forbid it, and it goes underground, with all the risks that it implies. Also, what is the right of the mother over an accidental pregnancy? No! It's not simple at all.

Same goes for any theocrathy plan. Again from my personnal understanding of the New Testament, christians won't leave anything to this world (otherwise it would last). If I am right, it does mean that any theocrathy would be fulfilling man's vision, but certainly not Heaven's vision.

I'm not saying forbidding abortion is a bad or a good idea, or that a candidate should or not be religious. I'm saying that if a religious candidate is saying "God want's this or that, period", that person should be put aside, period!
