Dad sues ‘Thank God for Dead Soldiers’ church

We lose Free Speech, we lose our Humanity.

Human slaves aren't... human...? Humans have throughout history had areas lacking in the 'freeness' o their speech... are you telling me they weren't humans?

I'm not saying they weren't human at all, they had their rights infringed in many horrible ways, they were still human but they lost some of the parts that made them human, namely their 'voice'.

They were oppressed and had some of the Freedoms we take for granted taken away, in my opinion they lost their humanity and became nothing more than Androids but they were still biologically human.

I don't think they lost anything that makes them human. Having a voice is a 'bonus' as I see it... a vital bonus for individuality... but a bonus nonetheless for humanity. We could just as easily function as a 'hive'.

Why should there be any more required than one be human to be a part of humanity?

To be human is to be free, it is to be able to express oneself through the arts, through the public arena, through science and mathematics etc...

We use these things as a voice, slaves do not have the right to express themselves through these media, through their voice, that is why I said they were not human.

We may easily be able to function as a hive but we do not, because we are not a hive animal, we are human.
