One consequence of replacing the sanctity/equality of human life with the "quality of life" ethic would be the destruction of universal human rights.

And this is the culture of death's goal.

If these clowns that spout this kind of garbage really belive it, why don’t they show their convictions by leading the way and put a bullet in “ THEIR OWN HEAD” ?

My son has mild/moderate hemophilia. He is nearly 16 and almost an Eagle Scout.

If that piece of human debris, Singer, had his way, my son would have been put to death at birth.

There has got to be a special place in Hell reserved for him!

No. If animals are to be respected more than humans, put him on the menu.

Why does anyone listen to this lunatic? He supports parents having the choice of killing their babies up to 1 year after they are born. This alone ought to disqualify him from having any standing.

IF animals are so important and so special, why is Singer writing books and articles?

Why are Social Science/Humanities considered worthy of research again? No wonder I’ve seen science professors rip apart social science any chance they got.

establish the principle that humans do not have unique moral worth. That would break the spine of Judeo/Christian moral philosophy

atheism + naturalism/materialism + belief in evolution = anti-man mentality + subjectivism & relativistic ethics. Once you have that, then any action, no matter how bad can be justified on utilitarian grounds that it is good for society as a whole.

To call this guy “utilitarian” is to praise him overly much. He seems too enamored with his philosophy to give a whit about the good of society.
