Hello and welcome again to another edition of the atheist news network wherein today we discuss

0:14.8

actually one kind of horrific event and another bit of stupidity on Hoven's part, but I say we get the horror out of the way just because it's kind of a downer.

0:26.0

It happened in Kansas.

0:28.0

This guy's one of the few docs who still do late-term abortions, and he's got a history. It's amazing to me that he still

0:36.1

does this. His clinic has been bombed, he's been shot in both arms, and finally as he was going to church today he got he got shot and die.

0:45.6

Yes you know that was the amazing thing to me is you got a guy here who back in

0:50.7

1993 was shot twice in both arms and yet he still went to work the same day

0:58.0

or not the same day he still went to work a little bit later on and

1:02.2

went back doing the same exact thing that he was doing and

1:05.4

the funny thing to me is he was a religious man who believed in what he was

1:11.2

doing not only that did he believe, but he went to church and it fascinates me that you would have somebody who hated him so much that he would shoot them within a church.

1:45.5

So in their eyes, innocent children versus guilty murderers, these abortion doctors, And it's the thought process,

1:55.0

although completely obviating the thou shalt not kill,

2:00.0

yeah, commandment in the Old Testament

2:02.0

and love your neighbor and do unto others as you would do, you would have them do to yourself.

2:07.0

If you think you're in a war, it makes sense to not only instill terror but kill the people who are you're at war with I suppose

2:20.1

It's just a completely retarded way to think about it. I mean I can understand the

2:28.1

the abhorrence to actually doing this because I mean me personally as far as I'm concerned it's a bunch of cells

2:36.6

My girlfriend however she believes in a soul she believes abortion is completely wrong so on and so forth so I could see both

2:44.0

sides of it but to actually think of this as a war and to go out and kill somebody in

2:48.8

the name of God or the name of saving thousands is the most retarded thing I've ever heard in my life.
