Scott Klusendorf asks 5 questions about pro-life voting:

Question #1: Should pastors lovingly challenge church members who actively support a political party that supports elective abortion?
Question #2: What role does the gospel play in my political affiliations?
Question #3: Liberal Christians insist that conservatives are focusing too narrowly on abortion to the exclusion of other important issues. Are pro-life Christians guilty of single issue voting? 
Question #4: Some Christians say that while they don’t think abortion is a good idea, legislation is not the best way to prevent it. They contend that pro-lifers would be far more effective spending their energies “elsewhere.”
Question #5: In 2008, some “pro-life” advocates voted for a presidential candidate who supports elective abortion as a fundamental right. Many insisted their vote was a true pro-life vote. How do you explain this?
