The "Rights" to Kill
Who has the authority to take life, aside from God? Take God away from the equation, and man is left alone to decide for himself. When God is absent from the equation, it is man who becomes the judge of life, and controversial issues such as the "woman's right to choose" arise. In a Godless society, even a woman's cat has more rights than the unborn human being inside her. Ethical questions in today's society also arise such as, "When does an unborn child develop into a human being?" and, "Who decides it?" or, "Is it really up to the government to define the life of an unborn child, based off of the fetus' development in the womb?" It is unacceptable for the government to be the ones who decide whether or not life is valuable.
