They despise all that may result in more joy and happiness…
“… The problem is that modern society is experiencing a dramatic lack of conscience about true values. So, “health” or “nature” or “choice” are seen as values in themselves, no matter what this means for human beings. So, in order to protect “public” health, the government is allowed to tread on individual liberty; in order to save nature, it may deny that any property right has ever existed; and in order to give people a choice, it may even kill children. Because abortion is murder, whatever you may think. You may say that a fetus is not “alive,” or a child is not a man; yet, a fetus is the same thing as a child, and a child is the same thing as a man…”
