My issue is with the implication of man speak on behalf of God and his judgments. A alternative would be in the second frame have someone being robbed and the caption is a bystander saying "While I am personally opposed to him killing you, I will not interfere if he chooses to do so ..." <br /><br />Although, this wouldn't really fit with the religious theme. <br /><br />I like the intent of the cartoon. I just did not like the delivery. <br /><br />By the way, I am opposed to abortion and will let God judge all of his creations as he sees fit.<br /><br />Thanks for the discussion,<br /><br />Jeff (wanted quick comment without logging in with an account)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4995084980699941792.post-91715969831679650252010-10-19T18:37:23.336-04:002010-10-19T18:37:23.336-04:00Excellent cartoon!!

Pardon me if the fo...Thanks for your response anon. Pardon me if the following sounds like a nerd explaining why the Millennium Falcon is the fastest ship in the galaxy. I take it from your response that you think the cartoon judgemental. Although this is a common reaction, it is erroneous for several reasons. First, it is not directed at anyone specifically. Rather, it is targeted at the invalid argument that goes "I am personally opposed, but..." Cardinal Arinze made a great comment that this is no different than testifying to Congress and saying, "You congress men, I am personally opposed to shooting the lot of you, but if someone else wants to do it, it's pro-choice." To wit: Being personally opposed to abortion is no more meaningful than being personally opposed to ketchup on a hot dog.<br /><br />Second, judgement always implies something final and settled, but since this is not directed at anyone specifically, this is a much-needed warning rather than a judgement. Being personally opposed to abortion but helping to faciliate it is at least material cooperation with evil and a strong case can be made that it is formal cooperation. That is, actions speak louder than words and one can't simply advance evil, utter some exculpatory words and *poof!* everything is magically acceptable. Formal cooperation with abortion is gravely evil, doing a grave evil with full knowledge and wilfulness will destroy sanctifying grace, dying without sanctifying grace means eternal damnation. That's not a judgement, that's the truth and the cartoon's purpose is not to say x person is in Hell, but that readers have time to repent.
