The Value of a life


If we haven’t by now learned the value of a life, any life, then we have disgraced our God given intelligence.

 

If our cities are not proof enough of the desire to live with each other within the rules of society I know not what is.  The value of a life, of any life, is to be held the most precious of all things in our time. To stand on the ground that you care about the life of the unborn, and then turn out of fear and build and arm a tank, man that tank with the fathers and mothers of your next generation is abhorrent.

 

 

If we have yet to learn to sit in open discussion and resolve our differences, then what value do we really put on our intelligence? What moral are you projecting by not doing so? What are you teaching your children and the children of those who will follow us!

 

To directly challenge the address* of saving a life, then one must be a steward of all life.

 

What type of parent are you trying to believe that you represent at the end of a gun? What type of life are you trying to take with a nuclear weapon? Man has no reason to continue to use and value the proceeds of the weapons of war!

(Address- verb; to set about doing some task; "Through this program of action we address ourselves to putting our own national house in order." Franklin D. Roosevelt First Inaugural Address)
