What about animals? Why isn't killing an animal "murder"? Animals have babies and give "life". Is it because humans have the largest brains and can do neat stuff life talk and reason? That is cool but what has that got to do with creating a "life"? Who said killing animals was ok? You have to eat right? A life is a life right? One thing, animals don't have abortions. In many cases we wait till they are born and grow a little before we slaughter them. I guess its ok cause the bible says so.

My best guess is Genesis 1:26 will be cited.

Quote:Then God said, "Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

Or Genesis 9:3:

Quote:Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.

Or both.
Plus, Jesus at animals after he was resurrected, and doing something that Jesus did can never be construed as a bad thing to a Christian.
