Road to hell paved with good intentions says Beauford Burton
Beauford Burton argues that many modern policy choices are made with good intentions but lack God’s approval. He cites Supreme Court rulings on DOMA and Prop 8, Boy Scouts openness, amnesty legislation, foreign policy, debt, and gun control as examples. He warns that intention does not justify actions and calls Christians to seek divine guidance and forgiveness.
