I would rather my brothers and sisters, the whole human race, would stop
killing each other unnecessarily.  But if we are all just organisms, nothing
more, then why would abortion and birth control be any better for
controlling population than war, pestilence and famine?  If we are in effect
nothing more than so many bacteria in a petrie dish called Earth, what
possible difference could it make which method is used for "controlling" the
growth of the culture?  In fact, when you consider how much disgusting and
unnecessary slaughter, poverty and starvation there is.  Perhaps the best
thing to do would be to throw the petrie dish into an autoclave and have
done with the bacterial culture within it.  Nothing at all is better than
what has been going on.
