Abstract
"(...) In this paper I will: 1. Discuss the problem of voting pro-life in the United States; 2. Investigate an example in which one pro-life voter’s pro-life positions are compromised; 3. Propose that the division over the “life issues” in Western democracies is rooted in misapprehensions of the Christian conceptions of A) Sin, B) the Human Person and C) Salvation before suggesting that the D) Christian Concept of God provides a useful corrective for these misapprehensions. Finally in 4., I will call on makers of public policy to overcome the ideologies based in these misapprehensions and to value human life in all their policies. This is my Hope for the Future.
