So why do I seem to be hard-wired to forget/overlook this (at least practically speaking)??? It's a rhetorical question. I guess I need to sit down and read a little Romans. :D I look forward to a day when this comes easier for me as my first response... Kathy & Lynn - I agree whole-heartedly with you both.

It’s a rhetorical question. I guess I need to sit down and read a little Romans. :D I look forward to a day when this comes easier for me as my first response…

We need to remember it when dealing with infants and little children. We need to remember it when dealing with people we dislike or want to gossip about. We need to remember it when thinking about issues that have great ethical and political ramifications, such as abortion, infantacide, and euthanasia. What Lewis said there is like a compass point, and if we find ourselves straying from it, we need to get back on track. God said, "Whoever sheds man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed, for in the image of God He made man." The concept of how God values human life is what Lewis so ably expressed.

That pretty much rocked my world when I read it. Goodness sakes but it is hard to live that way. No kidding. That pretty much rocked my world when I read it.
