President Bush: I also believe human life is a sacred gift from our Creator. I worry about a culture that devalues life, and believe as your President I have an important obligation to foster and encourage respect for life in America and throughout the world. And while we're all hopeful about the potential of this research, no one can be certain that the science will live up to the hope it has generated.

Johnny: I find President Bush's comments to be quite odd since the God of the Bible once killed almost all of the babies in the world with a global flood, killed all of the first born males in Egypt, killed unborn and newly born babies at Sodom and Gomorrah, killed one fourth of the people in Europe with a bacteria (Bubonic Plague), and killed unborn and newly born babies with Hurricane Katrina. It is obvious that God devalues life much more than anyone else does since he is in the best position to prevent loss of life. If Adam and Eve had never sinned, and no one had ever died, can you imagine how many people there would be in the world today, and how many animals since no one would kill and eat animals, and animals would not kill each other. I am mostly addressing fundamentalist Christians.

I'm more concerned about the CSS implications here. I wonder what the president would say if he was asked to provide a secular purpose to his ban on embryonic stem-cell research.
