All abortions aren't legal. consider late term abortions. They are only legal in certain states.
People are constantly put on suicide watch. Just eliminate this and we won't have a problem.
And saying that having the death penalty will result in us eventually just killing innocent people all the time is like saying that having marijuana legalized will eventually lead to us legalizing Crack and Meth.
Fact is, if you can prove that someone is a murderer or child rapist, they should be executed. I'm not saying execute based on ONLY the decision of the jury. I'm saying proven beyond a reasonable doubt (which is how cases are trialed anyway).
When you're killing off all of the worst people, that's it. No one else is next in line. Might as well say "If you're curing all diseases, what will be next? Taking away the ability to think?"
Ways to slow down the possibilities:
Legalize all abortion
Legalize Suicide
Legalize Euthanasia in all circumstances (if you don't have money to keep a brain dead person alive, pull the plug).
Use the death penalty more often (child rape, no insanity pleas, etc.)
Predators are not behaving immorally because they lack the intellectual capacity for morals.
With that argument, is it that immoral to kill a creature that doesn't have the intellectual capacity to understand anything other than Mate Feed Kill Repeat?
I think Donnie Darko can rap this up a bit. It's pointless to care about the death of an animal.
Yes, when torture of an animal occurs it's wrong because it's prolonged pain of a living creature. But just to kill it (for food, vanity or sport) is part of what makes us human. We dominate.
No, Catholicism where I am isn't that big. It's mainly the Protestants and other stuff. They all volunteer at the church or sing in the choir and shit like that. And they love having a "relationship" with Jesus. They are also generally happy. It isn't the cheery stuff you probably see in small towns, it's more of just people who look they found something that really makes them happy.
on the answer of a deity, they are actually more agnostic. They just believe that "it is what it is". They believe in Karma and Darma, though, which I don't believe in (since it insights that we're being watched or something).
As for the other religions... most people who are very religious (that i meet at least) are very happy... you should probably stop hanging out with such depressed people.
