The Bible's Teaching Against Abortion
Good resource from the National Pro-Life Religious Council.
For those Kerry Catholics who read the blog I am looking for the Bible's Teaching on Raising Taxes. Just kidding.

You joke about taxing people to provide services to those less fortunate. Jesus didn't joke about the accumulation of wealth such as fostered by reducing taxes on unearned income and tax cuts that favor the well off.
Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?" Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: You shall not murder; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness; You shall not defraud; Honor your father and mother." He said to him, "Teacher, I have kept all these since my youth." Jesus looking at him, loved him and said, "You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me." When he heard this, he was shocked and went away grieving, for he had many possessions.
Then Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How hard it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!" And the disciples were perplexed at these words. But Jesus said to them again, "Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God."
Mark (10:17-27)
