I still feel the same as when I emailed the following comment to the "God Not Guns" BradyBunch offshoot:
"Show me the passage in the Bible that tells me that born-again Christians become BULLETPROOF, and I'll sell my guns!"
Like another poster already mentioned - there's a difference between cold-blooded murder, and killing in self defense.
It's like when I tried to convince a loved one that needing certian medicines did NOT make her a failure as a Christian. God provides things to us, it would be lazy and ungrateful to sit on our duffs and wait for Him to spoon-feed us everything!
Just like God provided the know-how for man to invent SSRI's and psychotherapy, He also provided the know-how that a polymer framed pistol COULD work...!
SO, as a Christian I have no problem carrying - and would have no problem USING - a gun for self defense.
