If you haven't read it, I strongly recommend:
this book.
Feser writes like the love child of Thomas Aquinas and Ann Coulter.
I salute your valor. :)
But suicide is generally considered an aberration among people in almost any society (with a few exceptions) and it certainly is not found in non-humans.
“How many tribes practiced torture or cannibalism?” Yea I could quote Rush Limbaugh and say “look what the tribes did to each other”
The tribes by themselves however were a whole different story. They suffered just what the white man suffered in Europe. This idea of prenatal care is a new thing and has changed how many babies make it and from birth to five years of age.
I have a feeling people like the Cherokees don’t feel the need to explain themselves when it comes to many things. I got that with the Cherokee man I once knew. One almost had to just figure it out on your own unlike in Christianity where you are told why in the Bible. I believe some religions of the world are just like the Cherokees and if they say it’s wrong then you accept it don’t do it and move on. Don’t ask why maybe you are better off. Ask any woman who has had an abortion she might agree.
Yes, that's true. However, in the context of the article, in persuading non-religious people of the right to life, there generally has to be more reasoning offered than, "It's just wrong."
