So you don't eat rabbits but Christian babies are perfectly OK?
Also, I'd like to add (for the sake of anyone reading this who takes it too seriously) a reply to your statement:
Obviously, you're taking this out of context. SDAs don't ADD works to simple faith, but simply teach that if one has TRUE faith, he/she will desire to do good works and follow the law of God. Faith in and acceptance of Jesus as one's personal Saviour is the only way to receive the free gift of eternal life, but just SAYING one believes is not enough. Basically, if you love God, you'll obey him, plain and simple. Just like with our earthly parents.
So do you kill disobedient children? Do you hate your parents? Are there any SDA homosexuals? What about catfish? Every SDA south of the Mason-Dixon line eats catfish!

I think you are a bit confused. Do you eat tuna?
