If you really advocate the theory which you stated equating humanness with
independence, you are not only advocating abortion but the needless deaths of
all those who require long-term care and as such are not selfreliant. Would
you put a gun to the head of your senile grandparent,your mentally or
physically-impaired relative, or your own pre-adolescent child and pull the
trigger if they did something to inconvenience you? A little sacrifice is
good for everyone once in a while. If you can answer yes to ant of the
previously stated rhetorical questions, you possess that which I lack;
a complete ignorance of morality.
 I am not a religious person; indeed, I am forced by my present circumstances
to attend services regardless of my own feelings on the matter. However, I DO
believe in a universal set of morals, which the concept which you seem to be
a proponent of violates.
