Then why did they charge the Manson family for infanticide when they killed that woman who was pregnant? It's no different.

I would condone the death penalty if there was any way to know we were applying it without error. As we clearly have and continue to occasionally execute innocent people, I have grave reservations about the death penalty. Quite a few atheists here disagree with me, on both counts. Quote:I believe that all life is sacred, so I condone both ideas as a type of murder.If there's one thing that is absolutely clear, it's that life isn't sacred. It's cheap- everywhere but in my socioeconomic class in the Western world. Is that sad? Yes. But these first-world issues you're quibbling over are pretty fucking pale in comparison to the misery, pain, and death that happen in the poverty-stricken, war-torn shitholes of the world. If you think all life is so sacred, I'm sure you're on top of that.

Hey, I know how it feels to be assumed, and I should've picked better language then the general. Apologies. But, yeah, life is sacred, human life even more sacred, because we are products of the most miraculous naturally occurring process ever, life. So, life, even whilst a child in womb, is to be protected and not destroyed.

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House “Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom "If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech
I don't condone abortion. I am personally strongly against it (for religious reasons mostly), but still support a women's legal right to chose. Doesn't mean I agree with her choice, but I respect her right to make that choice.

There is no absolutes in anything. Except you are dead wrong. Check crime statistics and prison statistics. Atheists are under-represented in prisons compared to the population. Also read the previous post about rape statistics in Sweden: 77% of rapes are committed by Muslims. You are delusional, young lady.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.

Because life is so precious to you? Or are your efforts solely focused on American women who opt not to be reproductive slaves?

And, reproductive slaves? You know who has even less of a say than the poor, oppressed, women? The unborn child.
