contradiction

from Jay Reeves with the AP

Eric Rudolph:
''What they did was participate in the murder of 50 children a week,'' he said. ''Abortion is murder and because it is murder I believe deadly force is needed to stop it.''
''Children are disposed of at will,'' he said in a long speech against abortion. ''The state is no longer the protector of the innocence.''

Emily Lyons:
One of the victims in the abortion clinic Rudoplh bombed, killing one man and maiming a nurse.

''It really doesn't matter what you say because I will go back to my home and you will go back to jail. The clinics in town will still be open and abortion will still be legal,'' Lyons said.

In a statement distributed after his guilty pleas, Rudolph portrayed himself as a devout Christian and said the bombings were motivated by his hatred of abortion and a federal government that lets it continue. He called the plea bargain ''purely a tactical choice on my part.''

Can anyone refer to themselves as devout Christians and claim to be motivated by hatred? What an absurd thought and a true revelation that he was anything but Christian in his actions and his motivations. Too many people in this world claim themselves to be devout Christians and fail to understand that God is infinite love. A state of being and seeing that is completely devoid of negative emotion is the closest humans can ever come to understanding this, a trait that few in the history of the world have ever come close, at least if one considers the quantity of souls that have passed through this earth.

Mahatma Ghandi was one of those human beings.
"Hatred ever kills, love never dies such is the vast difference between the two. What is obtained by love is retained for all time. What is obtained by hatred proves a burden in reality for it increases hatred."
