Good post. But "intended", as in... "what seems rational as nature may have intended* things"... is perhaps...well... Ah, HELL--let it be. :-) "That seems like a huge stretch if we are claiming some obligation there." Well, exactly. It is one thing to have a species bias--but to value a zygote over pollen?* So 42 million abortions are performed each year What if we saved all those zygotes (which leaving religion out of the picture are no different than their energy/matter makeup a trillion years before they became zygotes)--or the make-up of a (dead) person in viewing at the front of the church. So now after 10 years we have 420 million zygotes. But they don't have any more "potential" than anything else in existence. They have an immediate leaning towards a weird life form that is relatively new and unwelcome in the universe. But their time as THAT will be like a puff of wind before they are pollen, grass, cucumbers, sand, and stardust once again... Now how many zygotes could 420 million zygotes beget??? HMMMMM... Eventually the planet would be overrun and people would start to starve to death like all creatures do when their food supply and their habitat is gone. Does anyone think these dilettantes would be running around then saying, "save the zygotes. Let my son or my wife die??" They would outgrow their drama queen ignorance mighty quickly... cbrinfo.org
