I’ve spent enough time arguing with liberals to understand the double-standard between what NASA-loving liberals constitute as “life” versus what we conservatives view as life.

You see, the typical liberal platform is pro-abortion/anti-life.  The woman’s “right to choose”.  Pro-choice.  A woman’s right over her body.  The government shouldn’t mandate what a woman can do with her body.  We’ve heard all of the liberal slant on what is effectively a permission slip to kill an unborn fetus.  Except it’s not portrayed as pro-murder.  It’s given a much nicer term, like pro-choice.  Choice?  Who doesn’t want choices?  Choices are what make us free.  It’s a pro-American philosophy upon which our nation was founded.  Except it’s wrong, and while the bleeding-hearts paint a pretty picture around it to make themselves feel better and the heartless ones don’t care, a life is taken every time an abortion is performed.  The liberals stance is that the definition of when life begins is a little fuzzy - a gray area that isn’t quite understood and is open for debate.  Unless you disagree with them, and then life only begins once the child has left the womb.  Any attempt to kill a human at that point, through capital punishment (or what I like to call justice), is strictly prohibited by most liberals as it’s murder.  Even for the most hardened criminals.

Earlier this week, NASA landed a probe on the planet Mars to search for evidence of extraterrestrial life on Mars.  The $400 million project is designed to dig in the Martian soil in an area suspected of having frozen water ice just below the surface - an area with the greatest likelihood of past or present life.  Remember back in 1994 when a rock was found on Earth that was claimed to have originated on Mars and that it contained some kind of fossilized structure that may have been ancient life from the red planet?  While that “life” discovery is still up for debate years later, it proves one thing:  liberals take for granted the preciousness of human life on our planet, yet regard any organism, even the single-celled ones, found outside the confines of our planet to be life.  Their definition of “life” is something as simple as a mono-nucleic cell.  Except when that single cell belongs to an embryo.  Then it’s not life until it’s born.  And once it’s born, don’t even think about doing anything to end its life until it dies of natural causes.
