Participation as idolotry

This week we will be talking about abortion in my sunday school class. We, I would contend more than any other country in the western world, live in an impressively unprecedented culture of death. We are surrounded by it. We are number one in the manufacturing of armaments, the only country in the western world that utilizes capital punishment (I believe), unrelenting support of Israel and their absolute terrorism upon Palestine, and retain the right for women to have an abortion. I do not find abortion to be any more morally horrifying in the least. In fact, I find it to be the least so out of those mentioned. What I do find horrifying is that we call it genocide and wish to legislate against it yet we never care about people who are a part of world wide genocide. We find it morally objectionable to have an abortion because it is murder yet we are okay with the amount of homelessness and poverty in America which is talked about just as much. Being pro-life means being an advocate for the preservation of life. In most cases, we are not pro-life, we are just anti-abortion. What I find most horrifying is that we allow things like the global water crisis and malaria to continue while we bicker if homosexuals should be considered equal in America. This is what I find most appalling. Moreover, it seems excessively hypocritical to accept all government funded killing. Thus, it would appear that the only true way to stand firm against abortion is to stand firm against all violence, adopting a stance of non-violence. Yet if we continue to participate in State matters then we cannot help but support one form of unethical action or another, causing the subversion of our Christianity and placing our allegiance to the state higher than our allegiance to Christ.
