When the identity of this demon is learned. In value, would you or anyone consider that the value of what he contributes to society to be equal to the life he took? What is being taken from the world on a daily basis by total losers that contribute no good to anyone equal any of the precious lives lost? Even taking these people lives won't ever replace what is lost. A civil war won't work because how to determine the enemy would be impossible. Hate is a two edged sword. Reasoning is not possible. Voting for people thinking that they will help is a serious hit and miss. Jesus spoke of this time. Right would be wrong and wrong would be right. The young blame the Boomers and the older folk think the college educated youth are being brainwashed.. The blacks blame slavery and racism. This world is on a down hill slide. Europe is falling. What a great time to be alive. So many opportunities to straighten things out.

How can any of us possibly answer this question when there isnt even a suspect in custody ? At least as of the time im typing this .. Generally speaking though, if you are someone who assigns more ‘value’ to one life over another, then usually a victim’s life gets assigned more value than a criminal perpetrator’s life .

Good or bad, we're all God's children. One life doesn't carry more value than another.

Am I a bad Christian for not feeling this way?

No. Certain people are more remarkable and have a bigger impact on the lives of others

People do have different value to the world based on what they do with their lives

To God, perhaps.

Definitely not the case for us mortals here on earth.

My family has more value to me than the entire world combined and I would flip the track switch to sacrifice billions just to save one of them.

But I'm not God.

but why? If God does miracles or can answer prayers, then why does God just let these things happen?

God gave us free will to do as we will. Along with that are consequences for your choices. The rest is up to you, all I can say is choose wisely

Yes. It’s an important core, fundamental concept of our faith. Take a look in the mirror. We are all great sinners, and one of the things Jesus despises the most in the Bible is hypocrisy. Don’t go down that road.

That’s why it’s never ok to murder another human being unless they attack you first, and you feel you must do so to preserve your own life.

No it's not.

It's a core concept that everyone's life has value to God and we are to treat them as his children. In light of that.

That doesn't mean we don't give people more value to ourselves.

There's a Fr Mike Schmidt quote I like to remember in times like this: God draws straight with crooked lines.

I don't know why bad things happen in this world. The entire Book of Job is dedicated to that very question.

But as a Christian, I believe I am part of a larger plan. I may not know it in this life, but God will reveal it in the next.

My life is more valuable than a pedophile’s. Sorry, disagree here.

Yes, it is. That’s really not disputable. Love your neighbor as yourself as Jesus says.

Also, He says love your enemies and pray for them; he also says if you only do good for those who are good to you, what is that worth to you? It’s worth little in the eyes of the Father. However, if you do good for your enemies, that it very powerful.

We are all God's creation. But are we all God's children? If going by Scripture, not everyone is a child of God.

John 1:12 (NASB95)
But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name,

quote:

One life doesn't carry more value than another.


The inherent value of every life is equal. The value of the life we live is not.
