Just a thought.
If you did believe that abortion is ok, we did evolve from apes, that genisis is actually more symbolic that literal, would god be mad even if we were christian.
While i personally hate abortion, disagree with evolution, and believe only parts of genisis are meant to be symbolic, My brother is the direct opposite
and I never really challange him on anything but abortion. sooo.... should I?

Re: Will he be mad?
Regarding the first question, I do believe those things so...no.
But hypothetically, if creationism is true I don't think God would withhold salvation from a person for believing in evolution. I don't think ignorance in itself is a sin that warrants punishment, and even if it was, everyone is a sinner and needs to be forgiven so nothing would really be different.
As for the second question, I'd say go ahead if you feel compelled to, but be careful not to fly off the handle since those arguements can turn ugly fast.
