Mark,

One crime is not a excuse to commit another crime.

The problem is where you put the limit. If life is not sacred then
you start with fetus, follow with sick people, kill criminals, then
the senior citizens that produce nothing, perhaps the Jews, the
Blacks, the gays, the feminists, the mexicans, the prostitutes, the
communist, the New York fans, the rodeo cowboys, the bird watchers
or any other would follow.

Eugenics at its best.

It is very easy to start to kill people. The problem is where it all
ends.

Is very different to ignore the suffering of far away people that
kill a life that is related with us by blood. The first is
inconcience, the second is murder, or perhaps only the choice of
having fun, having confort, avoiding responsabilities.

What would be better? That those kids end aborted like in
the 'advanced countries', where millions of fetus end up in the
garbage cans for the glory of "choice"?

Yes 'advanced' countries' kids don't suffer hunger, they are killed
before they have the chance of suffering. The ones that survive live
well, of course. There are so few of them that 'advanced countries'
are plenty of resources to feed them.

Yes. Poor countries are so primitive!! Actually, the main problem is
in Africa. If you teach them abortion techniques, perhaps their
problems would stop right now.

Besides, start a brain washing campain explaining the importance of
saving the habitat for the green frog. Teach them parental
responsability and nihilism 101. And religion is not problem. Allow
then to have TV sets where they could watch American media and very
soon they will reprogram themselves, forget religion, and start to
think like Americans do.

With gay parades included.

Yes, forget alphabet campains, give them TV sets !!!!

Yes, and a little bit of American porn would help quite a lot to
desintigrate African backwards way of thinking. Yes, an American
porn actress influences minds better than a thousand teachers. For
French speaking countries French porn stars are not bad either. Yes
France, that 'advanced country' is the capital of culture, and also
of the oldest profession :)
