"All life comes from God and thus God reveres human life more than all other life"
or
"All life comes from God and thus humans revere human life more than all other life"
Further, is it the conjunction of "coming from God" and "reverence" (from whichever source you cite) that equate to something's sanctity? Or do you consider anything that "comes from God" sacred?
The second one. (at least more than other life on earth, not necessarily more than all life, since we don't know what else is out there)
Anything that comes from God is sacred, but He dictates their level of sacredness. A human life is more sacred than that of a flea, for example.
According to whom? What verse? Can you be sure you're not applying your own values? And how so?
