That ain't what the Bible says

| May 2, 2024 12:00 AM

Lonnie Haack’s recent letters (Feb. 22 and April 11, Leader) contain opinion and conclusions that are questionable. What is the difference between facts and opinions?

“Opinion (and I quote from a Webster’s Dictionary) is belief not based on absolute certainty” vs. “fact: a thing that has actually happened or that is really true.” And what about science? It is “systemized knowledge derived from observation, study and experimentation.”

Being a person of faith myself, I understand and can agree with some of Lonnie’s opinions. However, I think that current Christian pro-life opinions are misguided. Pro-life should go beyond arguments about human reproduction, fetal viability and the definition of a human being. In my opinion, all life was created by God and includes not only humans, but all flora and fauna on Earth.
