"Tactfully preached in the passive voice, this doctrine teaches that one human being can decide how to use another even if it means terminating the other's life" Lying makes no points. Stupidity makes no points. You have tried both. So how many points have you made?! "These evangelists against God would give the most innocent of human beings no chance at all to hope, to care, to love, to live" God does not exist. Would decent caring humans be against a great moral being who existed? NO! So nobody is against "God". But intelligent people realise the dangers and the foolishness of running a life, a family, or a society, by imaginary stories designed to control and use people. "..no chance at all to hope, to care, to love, to live" Huh? The entire web site is about proselytising the values of hoping, caring, loving. living. Eggs do not hope, care, love. An egg does live, of course, but it has no sentience and no rights. Rights must be self-owned. No interest--no rights. You cannot impose rights. Even a one week baby has an interest. Things matter to it. This not that. That not this. And even if the one week baby had no interest--the mother and the father do. centerforinquiry.net An egg is exactly the same as I (and you) will be when we are dead (and as we were for the entire history of the universe--so so so so long before humans even evolved! No awareness, no pain, no meaning, no "rights". Just a molecule (or many individual molecules) of organic material moving on through the vastness of inner and outer space with no personal identity of any kind. The peace of non-sentient existence!!
