Incrementalism

Rhetoric criticizing incrementalism in the pro-life movement is rampant, especially as we approach elections.  As a pro-lifer, I'm offended at the insult to my intelligence and that of my fellow pro-lifers that position represents.

Anti-incrementalists have nothing to offer the pro-life movement other than their product: an oversimplified, impractical, non-plan.  That's not fair...they have a "plan," but it involves pushing for a human life amendment without any votes to support it, thus making it not a plan.  I like how they advertise this "no compromise" position assuming the pro-life community is totally clueless about the amendment process.  (If you happen to be of the anti-incrementalist persuasion... here's a little description of how it goes.)  Talk about shoot first, and ask questions later.

Speaking of no compromises, you ought to check out some of the nifty things the anti-incrementalist camp has to offer like Pastor Bob Enyart's biblically-based Cosmo-like quiz to assist you in determining when it's appropriate to use lethal force against abortionists.  Ah, the high road!  (In case you haven't noticed, I'm being completely sarcastic.  I do not condone the killing of any person.)

Looks like the link to Pastor Enyart's wicked quiz no longer works. I guess somebody's unchristian soul was embarrassed or something.
