For murdering an abortion doctor and his bodyguard, Paul Hill will be executed in Florida on Wednesday. Speaking as a pro-life advocate, I find the actions of Hill no better than any other murderer. He deserves his execution. Paul Hill is the most dangerous type of person, he feels it was his duty to execute judgement on the abortion provider. That is not Hill's job but God's and the governments. Who elected Paul Hill as judge, jury and executioner? The man is totally unrepentent and says he'd do it again.
We just cannot get so wrapped up in an issue that it literally consumes us. Paul Hill claims to be a Christian and it's not my job to say that he is or isn't. I can say he's totally deceived. It was the love of Christ and of Christians that helped bring Jane Roe (Norma McCorvey) to faith in Christ, not the hate.
Hey, let's be pro-life but any Christian must first be loving to even our perceived enemies.

I equate the Hill style of "Christian terrorism" with all other terrorism we face in the world today. It is evil and violates the laws of God and man.
