- >Just what is an "individual life" supposed to be?
-
- I kind of thought it was self-evident. For example, every person on this
- planet lives his own individual life. The term seems to be necessary, now,
- to mark the difference from human life as a whole (or as a continuum).
-
- When talking about 'life' in the sense of a continuum, it's possible to say
- that life has no beginning and no end. An individual's life does, and
- the pro-life crowd feels that this beginning and this ending are coming
- way, way too close together sometimes...
