I really don't care whether you do or not.My response says two things:
1. I respect your religious views enough not to engage in the petty exercise of attempting to correct you
2. I have no desire to engage in a discussion regarding religion with you
Now if you are quite through with your disingenuous attempt to deny the obvious.. you think you can muster up a small modicum of honesty? or are you bound and determined to demonstrate beyond a shadow of a doubt that discussing anything with you on a rational level is an exercise in futility?
I don't have religious views on rights.
Common courtesy and a desire to clarify my viewpoint on the fact that while I support the right of self-ownership that right is not applicable when the predicate is killing another human being. What I did not want to do is entice you to share your divine right of kings argument against the existence of natural rights or read any sermons (yeah I've been around the block a few times and can read the sign posts).If you have no desire discussing religion, why did you answer the question at all?
But what is and isn't a human being, and the application of that to the law, has to be decided BY the law.
That is why we have laws; that is why we choose to be ruled by laws.
