The Mathematics of Life


or


If 1 = 0 what does 12 = ?




In ancient Israel, the pre-born human being was


considered to be a person and, at birth, one-year


old. The wisdom of Israel held that the value of


the single life defined the value of the Twelve


Tribes of Israel.




History teaches that when the individual person


is of expedient non-value, the value of the plural


unit, the whole society, becomes regressive and


expendable.




Today, there are those who say, "Abortion is


such a messy negative subject." The American


new age holocaust is what it is. Regardless of a


sophisticated rationale it is a form of cannibalism


- devouring one's own kind - and has no place in


a free humane society based on individual worth.




If the individual is worth zero what will our Nation


be worth? Isn't the whole the sum value of the


parts - the individuals who make it up?




Is there any other kind of human? After all, isn't


every "group" merely a verbal convenience about


individuals?




Ask any ten-year old, "If one equals zero what


does twelve equal?"




If each individual is worth zero what will society


be worth? The consequences will accrue to each


and every individual in our Country.




Dear Reader: Don't you qualify as an individual?


Are YOU prepared to be weighed in the balances


of your own choosing? The perverse cause


produces the perverse effect. Obviously and


sadly it is already happening.




Dear Trendy-One: Are there any questions about


our Nation? YOUR future? How about arithmetic?


The next step down? Assisted suicide.




"The fool foldeth his hands together and eateth


his own flesh." Ecclesiastes 4:5

I applaud your concept and agree wholeheartedly but I think your use of the word “cannibalism” is not only inaccurate but inappropriate.
It is well known that, in a court of law, a person who is found to have lied once will probably lie again thereby destroying their credibility. I think this also applies to exaggeration and I feel that you weaken your argument by using a word that is purposely inflammatory but hardly accurate. If any part of your idea is flawed then it calls to question the entire idea. That’s why people who are considered “fanatics” are usually viewed with skepticism because in the past they have routinely exaggerated and twisted the facts to suit their point of view. Lay off the exaggerations and half-truths and I think you will find that your ideas will be much more acceptable.
