Throughout this diatribe I think you had multiple opportunities to see the value of human life. That you didn't, makes me think you actually don't value your own life and while that's entirely your right. But, to project onto others that they're "in denial" for valuing their own, their families', or complete strangers' lives isn't the radical ultra-rational flex you think it is.

To pick one mere point where you might have chosen to value life otherwise:

> They're not a rare thing like say, gold.

You mean the gold that's a relatively common chemical in the universe? You're comparing the elementary particle formed by astronomical processes to somethings which (even if metaphorically) exists only within organisms so complex we have yet to find signs of similar complexity in the universe.

What you say is cold, but hardly truth.

I don't presume to be able to know the value of human life. There are too many unknowns and I'm not omniscient.

Perhaps we're immensely valuable - sparks of divinity. Perhaps we're not - mere bags of sentient meat.

I don't know which of those statements is more true. Either/neither/both?
