ONE love, blood, life
As for me, I'm against both the death penalty and abortion (except in extreme cases such as if the mother's health is in danger)
Taking the life of a person who took a life or lives, makes that indivdual(s) no better than the one being executed. It's complete hypocrisy to chastise someone for something and to turn around and do the same to them. When the religious leaders wanted to stone the woman caught in adultery in the New Testament, Jesus said "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone." I take that in a sense as I have no business judging someone else because I have sin in my life, and also as a reference reversing the Law of the Old Testament to literally give the death penalty to those who sinned. Jesus turned the tables and said if you've committed ANY sin(which we all do, according to The Bible), you have no right to take the life of another.
Abortion to me is a no-brainer. That child has a life that God has a purpose for, and ending it's life is murder. Period. However, I will go for hours how the church is focusing too much on this and other issues that from their mention in The Bible, are not on God's mind nearly as much as certain ones that are widely ignored.
