A little exchange with My Favorite Wingnut:

Him:
"I'm glad someone did not play God and abort you."


My response:
Just remember that you're the result of a race among about 6 million sperm cells all trying to get to the same egg. By being conceived, you denied all those other potential lives their chance at existence, and yet you seem to feel no guilt over what you did.

I would of had to add, "So glad Mother Nature didn't play God and spontaneously abort me either. " Since more fertilized eggs are spontaneously aborted than not, usually without anyone knowing what might have been.

Nobody cares about that. Fundamentals always say, "well God can do what he wants to do." That response to Godly atrocities always bothers me. No use arguing with these idiots.

But, don't hold your breathe about them understanding your logical and rational musings. These kinds of arguments generally frighten and confuse the zealots.
