Ronald Reagan
40th U.S. President
“Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.” (1)
Amen! That sentiment needs to be revived in Washington.
[PART 3 OF 6]
What are the implications of this concept of “the sanctity of human life”?
Is it wrong for a government to take the life of one of its citizens in punishment for crime?
[PART 2 OF 6]
What exactly do we mean when we talk about the “sanctity of human life”? Is that even a valid concept?
Princeton University’s online WordNet dictionary 
defines sanctity as “the quality of being holy”. Holy is defined as “belonging to or derived from or associated with a divine power”.
So the question arises, “Is human life holy?” Does human life belong to, or is it derived from or associated with, a divine power?
