Questions and Responses

Question [composite of several]: I was disturbed and confused as to what your purpose is for advancing Mark Dinsmore's particular ideas on "Christian patriotism." What if our forefathers had taken this pacifist attitude when we arrived in the New World?

Question: Could you please address the views of some who believe that Christians shouldn't smuggle Bibles...

Question: What is your advice and opinion regarding Christians being active in the anti-abortion movement, i.e., picketing, demonstrations, etc.? Or do you recommend a different approach to this issue?

Question: The papers have recently quoted several Christian leaders justifying from Scripture the murders of abortionists.... They claim that taking a life in order to save innocent lives is a biblical principle. What do you think?

Question: [I received a copy of a letter addressed to James Dobson, objecting to what I had to say in the July Berean Call concerning social and political action, and too lengthy to present here. The following response addresses the main points raised.]

Question [composite of several, some quite angry:] Your Q&A of November ’99 (first one) proves you are not willing to be corrected....Instead of receiving correction, you say that John the Baptist “made a mistake” in reproving Herod....

Question: Recently I heard some good reports about something called “The Catholic Campaign for America.” It is dedicated to bringing higher morals to our country. Shouldn’t that please every Christian?

Question: Mr. Hunt, in all honesty, do you, a man who is virtually entirely silent regarding the evils of our society, really think if you had lived in Nazi Germany you would have behaved any differently...?
