Apologetics is the Answer to Abortion and Euthanasia and other Life Issues
      

Apologetics ministries tend to focus on issues such as God's existence or the fact of the resurrection or the Bible's reliability.  These are all very important.  Indeed, they bear directly on the issues at hand- for if there is no God, it obviously follows that we cannot be made by him in his image.  Further, Jesus suffering, death, and resurrection on behalf of a fallen human race is an emphatic testament to how much God himself values each human life.  Dispense with these, and there are ripples down the line.

There, however, is where I wish to make the point:  there are ripples down the line.

Somewhere I read once that in the 1700s they went after God.  In the 1800s, they went after Jesus.  In the 1900s, they went after Man.   The sequence is logical, rational, and predictable.  One would like to think that they can dispense with God without there being practical effect, but the 1900s have shown otherwise.
