Do Some Lives Matter More Than Others?
So, Moses is of no more value to man than a crackhead?
Nobody wants to answer the question...
Are ALL people made in the image and likeness of their Creator?
Philosophically, none of our lives matter. We are commanded to "lose" our lives in order to find them.
Pragmatically, if you are threatening my life ... my life matters more than yours.
So, you won't "turn the other cheek" if I come at you with a knife?
Because I will defend myself against someone trying to take my life. Since one of us has to die, there is no longer an "equal" option.
Why so paranoid? If I die, I know where I'm going. If I kill the other, then I am sending him/her to a place of no redemption. I'd rather lose my life to give someone a chance at redemption than take a life and seal their fate.
