All Civilian Lives Matter Says Military Ethicist

Directly targeting civilians or exposing them to disproportionate harm in war is wrong for the same reasons that it is wrong to kill or harm innocent people in peacetime.

To violate that respect in war is not only a war crime but a moral crime.

An Atheist Celebrates Christmas

How does and Christian-turned-atheist celebrate Christmas?

It depends on the goal. If the goal is to teach teens that God has a moral standard, and that moral standard is that sex is exclusively intended for within the bonds of marriage, then abstinence is the only option. If the goal is to reduce pregnancies and STDs, then teach teens safe sex. I choose the first option.
