I want your opinion on the following scenario.
Lets assume there was a completely disabled human being who needs major help through all daily activities.
This human being is under the following condition:
If you are an atheist, can you give me a reason (other than legal issues) of why this person should not be killed as to free more resources (money, time, hospital space, etc) for the rest of the community?
- He/she has no job whatsoever
- He/she has zero friends and zero family members
In what way does a completely disabled, jobless, friendless, person without a family equal a waste of resources? Are you somehow under the impression that this takes away from their impact on society?
Honestly now, think things through before you post "gotcha" tripe.

You keep saying this, and it's far more revealing than you might believe.
There is no "atheistic" point of view other than a lack of belief in deities. That's it.
What you're talking about is social darwinism, and it's abominable.

The scenario I posted completely appalls me, but I just wanted to learn more about the evidence that other world views provide to support their case. Especially the Darwinian-heavy form of atheism.
Why do you need evidence? Sometimes I wonder how Christians can live with themselves (at least the far right-wingers), but if they're happy, then fine. I can avoid them or engage them as need be.
