Question.3861 - Discussion Question #1: The Value of Humanity Peter Singer, an ethicist at Princeton University, famously said “A week-old baby is not a rational and self-aware being, and there are many nonhuman animals whose rationality, self-awareness, capacity to feel and so on, exceed that of a human baby a week or a month old. If, for the reasons I have given, the fetus does not have the same claim to life as a person, it appears that the newborn baby does not either.” Compare and contrast this thinking with the view of humanity found within Genesis. Be sure to use material from the “What Does ‘Image of God’ Mean?” blog.
