Pro-Choice?

I hope that the controversy surrounding the pro-life commercial to be aired during the Super Bowl will finally provide us with some linguistic clarity. The "pro-choice" crowed is incensed that CBS is allowing the story of someone who chose life to be aired. If it is not already clear this should leave no doubt about the fact that they are not pro-choice, they are pro-death.

Common

If you don't read Michael Horton, you should. He is currently a professor of theology at Westminster Seminary in California. He is a profound thinker, an excellent theologian and seems to enjoy all that life has to offer. What I appreciate most about him is that he is a theologian to and for the church; everything he writes is intended for the edification and growth of the church. He understands that theology is not an academic exercise; it is the examination of a beautiful and divine drama. He has just started a four part series in which he looks at some of the common misconceptions people have about the church. Here is the first; I will post the rest as they become available.
