Well, yeah, but disagreement over that should hardly justify attacking the other side.

Like most disputes, it started when one side felt abandoned and the other didn't listen.

I was reminded this of tonight when I became aware of a group called "Abolish Human Abortion" that is apparently praying imprecatory prayers against Christians whom they consider are not sufficiently strident in the pro-life movement. This includes targeting guys like James White and Scott Klusendorf (who I am no supporter of; he made some very nasty comments to my wife and I on Facebook for not wanting homosexuals to be killed).

This seems to me to be moving in the wrong direction altogether. Christians should not be calling down evil on Christians. I have long said I am not pro-life but anti-abortion. I certainly do not wish harm to pro-lifers.
Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
