Pro-Life and War: Republican's moral dilemma
Listening to the debate late last night, I couldn't help but see the nonsense of the comments by most Republicans that they are Pro-Life and want to consider preemptive strikes with countries like Iran that "may be a threat" to the U.S. How can you be pro-life and be so for war. It is illogical and an inconsistent position. The amazing thing is how many people swallow the Kool-Aid and can’t see the hypocrisy in that stand. Looks like a re-reading of the Bible is in order, especially the part that says, "Thou shalt not kill!"
I also noted how there was definitely Critical Parent candidates heavily represented by the Republican field of candidates. (For a definition of Critical Parenting candidates read this previous post.

You make a good point. The hypocrisy of the pro-life right doesn't stop there however, they are also almost always pro-death penalty, which has never made much sense to me. I'm an odd liberal in that I am pro-life on the abortion issue, but I'm also pro-peace and against the death penalty. I mean as far as I'm concerned you either believe in the sanctity of life or you don't. Thanks for the interesting post.
