@drmegroekle @SeanOrionRyan @MattWalshBlog Men and women alike stand in the same position—participants in a process far greater than themselves, beneficiaries of a gift they did not invent and powers they do not possess.

The existence of organisms is actually evidence of distinction, not sameness. An organism is defined as an individual living entity with its own boundaries, functions, and identity. If everything were literally one organism, there would be no meaningful distinction between you and me, a tree and a bird, or a human and a bacterium.

Human beings certainly share a common humanity and are biologically related, but that is very different from being “literally one organism.” In fact, the entire concept of an organism exists because living things are distinct entities. The cell membrane, skin, and other biological boundaries are what separate one organism from another.

We may be interconnected, but interconnectedness is not the same thing as indistinguishable oneness. The very existence of organisms demonstrates distinction.

We are not “literally one organism”; we’re individual human beings with individual moral agency. And no, a person’s lineage is not responsible for the actions of their ancestors. If fighting is foolish, then collective guilt based on ancestry is part of the problem, not the solution.

You can only make such a statement if you don’t believe that society has a role in advocating for the sanctity of life.

“Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence were all my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!”

Courage would be acknowledging, "I identify as a woman, but my male biology gives me an athletic advantage, so I won't compete against biological women." That's a much stronger example of bravery than accepting trophies won in a category designed to protect fair competition for female athletes.

@JesusSavesUs777 You could call it a cult, but I think "pagan religion" is more accurate. A cult usually revolves around a powerful leader; this appears to be a religious movement centered on a particular ideology and set of symbols.

@LifeNewsHQ Child sacrifice has been a recurring feature of pagan religions throughout history. Civilizations have often justified the sacrifice of children by appealing to convenience, prosperity, or the perceived good of others.

Countless women have spoken out about seeing their baby after taking the abortion pill.

Some have even shared photos of their babies on Reddit.

The abortion pill doesn't make a preborn baby magically disappear.

It kills them, and leaves women to deliver their dead children alone in the toilet. 

This is the horrific reality of the abortion pill.

We must urge the @FDA to pull this deadly drug from the market.

Ese camión no es “solo un vehículo”, es el sustento de alguien.

Su hipoteca. La comida de su familia.

Quien lo destruya debería pagar por cada daño.

¿Quién está de acuerdo en que estos llamados “manifestantes” sean procesados como terroristas?

[Mark E Haight @MarkEHaight1]

@Taterlover25582 @LifeNewsHQ Many people believe in the sanctity of life.

[Mark E Haight @MarkEHaight1]

@Taterlover25582 @LifeNewsHQ It is perfectly consistent to believe that children should not be separated from their mothers, whether by killing the child before birth or by farming the child out to motherless homes afterward.

Countering one argument for the existence of God—and not very coherently in my opinion—is not going to disprove that there is a God behind existence. You just can’t get there with this argument. A finite brain will never be able to fully comprehend a God who exists outside of space, time, and matter. Even granting your formula for a godless morality (and I don’t), you are still light years away from disproving God. This argument misses the central issue. Even if morality is derived from the constitutive norms of rationality, God would not be unnecessary if He exists as the ultimate ground of reality, reason, and morality. Rational norms still require an explanation for why they are objectively binding and why human reason can track moral truth. Appealing to rationality alone risks presupposing the moral authority it seeks to explain. Likewise, dismissing God as a “nonexistent fictional man-made deity” begs the question, since God’s existence is the very issue under dispute.

[Mark E Haight @MarkEHaight1]

This is a waste of time if the real question is whether God exists. God can exist whether or not you think morality “needs” Him. At most, this proves someone can construct a theory of morality without God. It does not disprove God, and it does not explain why these so-called rational imperatives have any real moral authority over us. It just redefines morality in a way that conveniently leaves God out.
