But life is our most precious gift, and we should be
respecting it more than as an occasional inconvenience. If more cultures
respected life more, then I think they’d be less apt to end it so readily.
Well, that’s my answer. Both extremes will hate it, but that’s why they are
called extremists, no?

I think most cultures respect life a lot. It’s just those extremists you’re
talking about that seem to have less respect for it. And I don’t just mean
terrorists.
And if more people were content to put up with the inconvenience of walking
rather than driving, less lives would end in road accidents. But sometimes
people just aren’t prepared to put up with little inconveniences. Some people
call it “progress”, I call it “choice”.
