Actually I'm an agnostic- not a bit spiritual. But I see humans as not a very big part of anything, and not very important- except to themselves. Individually I am selfish- and want the best for my family- in some ways this makes me give benefits to people I would ordinarily not aid, in an attempt to make the world a better place for my offspring. I like things that promote law and order and stability- I am gamboling that my children won't turn out to be on the wrong side of the law. Its all a crap shoot- and while it matters to me on a personal level (mostly for me and my family) I merely meant human life only has the importance we give it- which can be relative. My families lives are important- everyone else - less so. I am not being cruel- but it is the way I am. I think if people were honest most people would tell you something similar if they had thought about it and could articulate it. If the death penalty were being applied to one of my kids I would probably become an anti-death penalty crusader- but that would be an emotional decision. My support of it may be an emotional decision too- how can I know?
