“God gives life and only God can take life.”

"God gives life and only God can take life."

I disagree with this statement that only God can give or take lives because I personally don't believe in God.

I do believe however, that each life is unique and precious we each have our own DNA or fingerprint making us who we are. I believe that life is far too complex to be explained by one creator.

Technology in Science and Medicine has advanced a lot in the past and has got to the stage where it create or takes lives just as much as giving birth due to sexual intercourse and death by murder.

Babies who are born early can be kept alive with surgery and life saving machines. Also parents who can't conceive and are infertile can be helped these days by IVF treatment. IVF can help because the woman puts her eggs into a test tube and they are injected with the male's sperm. Although this has a very low chance of working it's still up to 6% of a success rate that, is still 6% more than without.

It is the same with taking a human life; a human being can easily kill another human being or injure that person. Technology could save lives due to resuscitation. Science has the power to take and give lives.

I also believe that people have their own mind and can think for themselves independently. Free will gives people the power to influence the life of others. Women can choose whether or not they want to terminate the life of their unborn child because there is the technology to do it these days.
