Try showing as much compassion for a living, breathing human as you supposedly feel for a clump of cells.
The objection is that you guys crow about how much god loves us, how he's the pinnacle of goodness, but can accept the horrendous acts described in the bible as par for the course. I'm amazed to read the "well, they were given warning, and the killers really believed they were doing good, so that's ok"
Creepy.
It does NOT say that life begins at first breath. Talk about torturing verses to get a meaning that was not intended!
YOU are a clump of cell! What makes you inherently different?
I know that I am different. If you can't discern the difference, well...
