I'm sure during the days of Catholic power, burning heretics to the death was a majority-supported idea, too. Also,  I'm sure that there are points in history where a widely held belief would be considered apalling today.  Furthermore, even if 95% says one thing, are they still not forcing their beliefs upon the 5%?  And why is that alright?  At what point does it become acceptable? 91.035?

And the Bible says murdering humans are wrong; if the unborn are indeed human, then it is, therefore, wrong.

The Bible also tells Christians to go out and tell people they are going to Hell because they are sinning, and that they should stop sinning, which is a "judgement".  In the case of the verse(s) you are referring to, the meaning of the word must be different than identifying and prohibiting wrongdoing.

You know that the majority of this country used to be pro-slavery and pro-segregation right?  So are we currently infringing upon people's rights who want to have slaves in this country?

How many times do I have to say this, the Bible is not a legal document in America.  Things written in the Bible do not change our laws.  If you are looking for something like that you should move to the Middle East.

Actually, that's the point I'm making; that's what your method would inevitably lead to.

And I'm not saying the Bible is a legal document, I was just pointing out the inconsistencies that can arise between what Obama says and the Bible says (and whatever else I had been saying).
