It defies explanation. To monica I guess that means no one is pro-life.
There's some fallacious reasoning in there. If you're starving to death and I don't offer to feed you or help feed you, I am not killing you. You were starving, anyway.
I just didn't interfere. This does not make me guilty of murder. This does not make me a killer.
Sure, I may be a selfish, crappy person, but I haven't KILLED anyone. I wasn't locking you up, preventing you from eating. I didn't steal your food.
I didn't even CAUSE your starvation. This is referred to as an act of omission. Killing you or doing something to cause you to die is an act of commission.
They're not morally equivalent. So, that's why stopping an abortion is not quite the same as providing children health care. Abortion actively takes a life, whereas not providing health care just means not helping people.
If you really think you're killing someone by not helping, then how many people have you killed by saving your money, not giving to charities, not giving to homeless people, not sacrificing some of your meals so that others could eat, etc., etc.? Obviously, *not doing anything* is not the same as *doing something*. You think you're seeing a hypocrisy, but you're not seeing one at all. It's morally and ideological consistent to both oppose murder and oppose government health care that steals money from one group to give to another, thereby not helping children or anyone else.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
