That would seem to me you would be for mass extermination and or deciding
who can or can not have children. Who is qualified to decide who can or can
not have children? How would you react if someone came to you and told you
that you weren't approved to have children or decided you had too many? It
seems to me the "balance of life" has been able to manage things pretty well
without our messing it up.

I wish I could find the longer version of the one I posted about Beethoven
as it includes many more well-know people. I think Einstein was on that
list as well. It is not "stupid", it is called natural selection. Even in
chaos there is order. Because it takes so long to happen does not mean it
won't happen; that is failed logic.

Well, there you go. It must be no longer worthwhile to try so let's move on
to selective breeding. Earth, Hitler, 1938.

Science has always been limited as it takes so long to produce anything that
people can reap a profit from; this is not new. I was just talking with
someone today about how my university struggled for years to build -one- new
science building in something like ten years when the athletic department
got anything they want. That didn't happen under Bush. Bush is not the
cause for every problem on the planet.

The converse... the opposite.
You stated:

The people who argue opposite of the "right to lifers" can also be seen as
forcing their definition of life on other people and not having the right to
legislate, which could also be called "stupid" by some.
