The word "ethicist" and "kill a baby" in the same sentence? Is it just me or is something wrong here? Have they no ethics?

[SWAMPSNIPER]

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness-----------"

They think they've killed God off, now they feel free to kill anyone without reason.

I can see the time coming, and it’s not far off, when decent, normal people start “aborting” maggots like these “ethicists”.

[freedomfiter2]

Why stop at newborns? Why stop at one’s own children? Why shouldn’t I order the death of these ethicists?

Satan’s power is growing in this world. It is almost tangible.

I actually agree with Santorum. Satan is alive and on the march in America.

Babies ask why should the ethicists live? Ethicist dumbfounded.

[FerociousRabbit]

“Ethicists Ask: “Why Should the Baby Live?”

Maybe they should ask themselves a more important question: Why should the ethicists live?

[Waryone]

When ethicists have no ethics, why should anyone listen to them at all?

[Cronos]

if they say that, then murder should be made legal. In fact encouraged (Mandrake the magician future) — and you can kill these “ethicists” with no punishment whatsoever (except maybe littering as these guys are garbage...)... — it’s so easy to say “those people are superfluous”, but what about when one is talking of oneself?

Meanwhile, babies ask, “Why should ethicists live?”

[PapaBear3625]

This is a logical consequence of third-trimester abortion. If a baby can be killed just before he would normally be born, then why shouldn't he be killed just after birth?

Those who deny the "slippery slope" argument now see the consequence in front of them.

[LucianOfSamasota]

Ethics which do not recognize the sovereignty of God will invariably lead to un-Godly conclusions. The Founders of our nation recognized that our unalienable rights were derived from a Creator. In this case, the Christian God.

Systems which rely on alternate authority will arrive at a system which reflects that basis:

i.e. Muslims have Sharia, the essence of depravity derived from Islam, a satanic cult.

Democrats, socialists, Progressives have a secular based moral relativism - they believe they can ‘judge’ every case on a case by case basis, without any predefined standard. But they forget that they are a litigant as well as judge. In the end, their ‘higher’ values logically reduce to ‘what is in MY personal best interest’.

Hard-core Marxists and Communists (and most Dem’s lean this way, half in, as it were) believe that deeds/actions/events have only POLITICAL value, not intrinsic rightness or wrongness. So if a lie helps the cause, it is good. If a lie hinders the cause, it is bad. The same values hold true for killing, cheating, stealing, etc. After all, a few eggs may need to be broken.

All society’s have a system of values. The case may be made that the viability of a society DEPENDS upon its values system; and conversely that values systems may be judged by the viability of practicing society’s. This would lead most investigators to conclude that the Judeo-Christian system is the most successful system of values available for a culture.

Which might, if one weren’t careful, lead one to accept the Lordship of the Judeo-Christian God.
