A Superhero For Choice

As I was surfing the net yesterday I came across a disturbing story about planned parenthood. Planned Parenthood Golden Gate, in San Fran, produced a cartoon called, A Superhero For Choice. You have to see this thing to believe it. It shows the true colors of the planned parenthood organization. They have since disabled the link on their website, but above link works.

Christianity Today has an article on the website about this,the link is here.
Here is the blog the Dawn Patrol where I was able to find the link to the cartoon. You can find a portion of the script at the Dawn Patrol.

I am convinced after reading the information found at the above links and watching the cartoon, you too will see that our children are in danger. This should stir us to live intentional, purposeful, missional lives that live out the gospel to a world that desperately needs it. This world is being bombarded buy messages like this everyday, let us contradict it with the gospel lived out in our lives. As Parents we need to raise our children in such a way that they can withstand the onslaught of ungodly propaganda being peddled as truth.

Things that make you think

Found this post today from one of the blogs I have been checking out. I thought the topic was thought provoking at least.

The Lingering Lemon of Death: on being biblical
Was asked if I agreed with a statement of faith which included this statement:We believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible and wholly authoritative, word of God and that it is our standard guide for faith and practice (2 Tim. 3:16-17).
Inspired ... check.
wholly authoritative ... check
word of God ... check
standard guide for faith and practice ... check
infallible ... The bible is not a living being.
It cannot be trusted, it cannot make mistakes. It is neither fallible nor infallible. I believe treating the bible as if it were the fourth aspect of God, a plurality of four rather than the trinity, is a peculiar idolatry of the present day church. Father (capital F), Son (capital S), Spirit (capital S), Bible (capital B)

Hmm...Things that make you think.

One of the reasons I found this idea and post interesting is that this has been a sticking point in talking to people about Christ. In this postmodern world where few believe in absolute truth, we try to convert them to the idea of truth before we convert them to Christ. Now i know that Christ is truth, I don't refute that. I just don't think it needs to be the thing that prevents someone from coming to Christ. Let's let the holy spirit do that job, our job is to live the scriptures out in our lives.

I thought the following was thought provoking:

The bible is trustworthy not because of its scientific accuracy, but because it is an accurate account of the living God. Under the guidance of the Spirit, connected to a community of faith and to the traditions of the church, it provides us vision into the dreams of God and our place in them.

While I fully support the idea that we should trust the bible, and submit ourselves to scrutiny of our lives in light of scripture,

Stuff to think about at least.
