Question Posted Tuesday June 10 2008, 10:46 pm

Life is God's most precious gift; no principle, however glorious, may justify the taking of it.

WHY DO YOU AGREE?

Just for the record, I don't believe in God.

Well, if God did create life, then the ones who live that life, should have the choice as what to do with it. In the end, it's their decision as to what they want to do with that life.

Taking your own or somebody else's is never glorious and it never will be, but there could be some justifications as to why:

1) If somebody pulled out a gun and threatened to kill you, what would you do? Would you stand there or would you try and defend your life?

2) If a teenager found out that she was pregnant, what would you tell her? Get an abortion or suffer the consequences after the child is born?

3) If somebody going through a mental breakdown, in deep depression, nobdy likes you, you're disabled AND that person is considering suicide. What would you tell that person? End their suffering or let them suffer?

Life is precious, but we as species of this planet must make our own decisions. We meet tough choices throughout our lives, some more than others. We either kill because we hate each other or we kill because we feel that somebody is being a threat to us and we feel that they've got to be stopped.

Well, that's my insight on the matter.

So to sum that up, I don't agree (you might as well have a 'For and Against' answer to this question, more views on the subject) that 'no princile, however glorious, may justiy the taking of it' because there nearly always is a justification.

I hope this helped,
triquetra

I agree because God gave his only Son's life so that I would be blessed to have life, and I would never take it in addition to the fact that Jesus Christ gave his life willingly for me and the world so that we may live more abundantly. The Lord giveth and he taketh away. I am not the Lord, God or Jesus so who am I to have the nerve to claim to be one of Trinity and take my life when I said it's time to go or anyone else for that matter?

I also agree because I am grateful for every gift/blessing that I have been permitted and allowed to have by the Grace of God, throwing it away is unappreciative to the life he gave to me to have, which condemns me to eternal damnation instead of internal life.
