If this society valued human life to the extent you think it does then there would be no such thing as right to choose nor would there be over 1 MILLION dead in Sudan.
Get real
You have a very good point. A well known Christian worker who helped push for more open trade with China as a means to further the cause of human rights in China also pushed Congress to intervene in Sudan. When it came to Sudan, he said it fell on deaf ears. One wonders why such a big concern about human rights in China when people are being mutilated in Sudan and it barely makes the news.
I am very real. Some of us still hold old fashioned America ideals, and we want our children to have the same values.
Why sell out the country because the idea that human life has no value to some people exists? Why not promote the American ideals so that some day these same people might come to an understanding of life that they can adopt these values? It can only help the world, IMO, not hurt it.
