Then why would you place value on your corporeal life? You should rejoice when a woman gets an abortion. You should be thrilled that the folks in the church shooting were killed.
After all, it's just a transition to eternal life.
Because life is sacred. An afterlife doesn't take away this fact.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
