Was Sacrificing to Molech Similar to Abortion?: Was Molech child sacrifice similar to abortion in that a key purpose was to get rid of unwanted babies born (most often) of sexual sin? Ezekiel 16: 20-21(NKJV) clearly links the practice to fornication.

Will Sharing Tough Truth Ruin our Witness?: I'm afraid to talk about issues like abortion, LGBT, etc. for fear that I'll turn people off so much that they won't listen AT ALL when I try to share the Gospel. How can I resolve this?

Should Morality be Legislated?: How do I respond to a Christian who thinks things (like abortion and transgenderism) are wrong but that they shouldn’t vote to have the government legislate against it to restrain/correct non-Christians (forcing it on them)?

A note left on Winger's car in response to his "Former Embryo on Board" bumper sticker argued that abortion is justified when a parent can't provide love, financial support, or a non-abusive home. Winger uses this as a case study in pro-choice reasoning, arguing its logic is genocidal because it ties human value to external conditions rather than inherent worth.

Winger shares from his own childhood: an absent/indifferent father, an abusive stepfather, and poverty — all three conditions the note-writer listed as grounds for abortion. His life was redeemed and transformed through Christ. He argues the pro-choice logic, applied to him, would have called for his death, yet God demonstrated that suffering circumstances do not determine a life's value or potential.

The pro-choice logic of "this child will suffer, so it's merciful to kill them" parallels suicide logic: if a life is going to be hard, end it early. Applied globally, it would justify aborting virtually all children in sub-Saharan Africa. The Christian answer to suffering is not termination but redemption, care, and help — the "take care of them" solution rather than the "kill them" solution.

The note-writer describes death as a tragedy but then proposes death as the solution to potential suffering. This self-contradiction reveals the deeper issue: pro-choice reasoning treats the baby as "not yet in the world" because they haven't crossed the threshold of the womb — a distinction without moral significance, since the baby exists and has biological life inside the womb.

Internal contradiction in the note: death as both tragedy and solution; the "not yet in the world" fallacy
