Sheesh.
It used to be how soon can any discussion gety around to Hitler. Now it’s abortion.
You may have intended it that way, but that is why I added "Think about it" to my original response.
But to elaborate .....to be 'cruel' to any life is unacceptable. You think it's ok huh?
Now, you're doing the very thing you accused me of - putting words into my mouth. What I did was to challenge your idea of equating a similarly cruel act to an animal and a human child. So, no, it's not acceptable to be cruel.
To animals or to humans.
But to equate the two types of life if you're a Christian puts you in conflict with Scriptures. That's what I'm getting at.
God created mankind (both sexes, folks) in His image. We were also designed to have a relationship with God. Not so with animals. It's a slippery slope when God is taken out of the picture and you're left with naturalism. PETA happens to be further down the slope than almost anyone, but logically, that's where it will end up.
Humans are so worthwhile to God, that Jesus died for their sins, to make restoration of that relationship possible.
