snip----Our body also has a human operator, who directs it, and that human is somehow separate from his machinery, although he clearly can't live on earth, in this dimension, unless his machinery operates properly.



Good anology. And it speaks to the flawed reasoning of Peter Singer & his abortionist cohorts whose argument in defense of infanticide is that the baby lacks 'personhood," a fuzzy way of getting around having to say 'spirit".


They don't seem to realize how their "lack of personhood" reasoning points to the very thing they ardently deny the existence of.......a spiritual realm. For where else would the "personhood" be if not already in the body?

You say that like there's something wrong with infanticide!?
