Title: THE SANCTITY OF LIFE


Then God said,Let us make man in our image,after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. And God blessed them. Genesis 1:26-28a

THE SANCTITY OF LIFE

The sanctity of life means that all human beings, at any and every stage of life, in any and every state of consciousness or self-awareness, have inherent dignity, immeasurable worth, and unique value, and must be treated in a manner commensurate with this moral status.

In those days Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a town in Judah,and she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, and she exclaimed with a loud cry,Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! And why is this granted to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For behold, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.  Luke 1:39-44

The sanctity of life means that all human beings, at any and every stage of life, in any and every state of consciousness or self-awareness have inherent dignity, immeasurable worth and unique value and must be treated in a manner commensurate with this moral status.

"It is incorrect to say that biological data cannot be decisive...It is scientifically correct to say that an individual human life begins at conception."

-Dr. Micheline M. Mathews-Roth
Harvard Medical School

Physicians, biologists and other scientists agree, conception marks the beginning of the life of a human being. A being that is alive and is a member of the human species. There is overwhelming agreement on this point in countless medical, biological and scientific writings.

Human embryos are not creatures different in kind from human beings, rather they are human beings “distinct living members of the species Homo Sapiens at the earliest stage of their natural development.“ Robert P. George

Rescue those who are being taken away to death; hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter. If you say, Behold, we did not know this, does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who keeps watch over your soul know it, and will he not repay man according to his work? Proverbs 24:11-12
