A large proportion of pregnancies end in miscarriages. I am an atheist. There is not the slightest bit of empirical evidence for the existence of a god. If there were a god of omnipotence and so on why would It create so many miscarriages?

Most humans are against murder. If we allow wholesale murder, most of us would not be happy. Murdering a child one day after birth repels most of us. Fine. A day before birth. Not so good.

Where do you draw the line. Is a day after birth control pill murder?

Are you crazy? Are you a religious believer?

Is the world overpopulated? Will our species destroy itself.

Is Homo sapiens a mistake on god’s part?

Oh yes, that’s right. There is no evidence for the existence of god. Didn’t you get the memo from God?

I don’t exist?

We are on our own. We have to make up some rules. We have to figure out how to keep our species alive.

Or do you hate yourself?
