Today's excerpt:
If there is uncertainty about when human life begins, the benefit of the doubt should go to preserving life. If you're driving at night and you think the dark figure ahead on the road may be a child, but it may just be the shadow of a tree, do you drive into it, or do you put on the brakes? If we find someone who may be dead or alive, but we're not sure, what is the best policy? To assume he is alive and try to save him, or to assume he is dead and walk away?Shouldn't we give the benefit of the doubt to life? Otherwise we are saying "This may or may not be a child, therefore it's all right to destroy it."
