would that be worth it to you? No matter how much you had to take to help the children of our world find some real safety and peace in their lives?

"No, how can you value the life of one child above all the other people that would be fought (i'm assuming you mean some kind of war)"
I am talking about getting a big truth out, not a war such as we are having now.
"How many other children would go hungry because they lost a father or a mother."
What I am talking about would save the mothers and fathers and children. So would you do it then?

"I am drawing a mental image where
the whole world is facing inward on me with daggers drawn and sitting beside me is the child whom I am trying to protect. I could potentially be doing more harm than good."
This is your image not mine, and I say fight because that is what a champion does, they do not just defend. Sometimes we must fight for our values, or be walked over and yes one child is worth it, so you would let the child die because you have images of daggers crawling out of you? I don't think so that is your fear and you must contend with it, some have been called cowards for less then this. Let us not change our whole english language to satisfy some new fad or something, guess this is your right though.

"When a person makes the decision to have sex and have children and in our social world, they also also have a responsibility to provide care. Anyone who avoids this ought to be charged under the law -- neglect, failure to meet the necessities of life, etc. If we continue to bail people out of their responsibilities, no one will learn and generation after generation of vulnerable children will find themselves in harm's way. "
The harm is the psychiatric drugs /systems that keep causing them to die! The married parents were fussing and mom used pot, alcohol, and "elavil" together, then she drove her car into a lake, her 8 year old is dead, she got 15 years, the pot didn't do it, legally she was not drunk, the prescribed anti depressant "elavil" wiped her out and this is what we get, now would you help me to save our children please? Or would you charge these "married" parents, oh yeah she was convicted, and have the psychiatric system drug up even more children then they are?

every child is unique and has the true gift of life "a future"... raising any child in a healthy,ethical way is a fight... it might not be a literal war with weapons n soldiers, it might not even be a legal custody battle..todays world with all its vulgarity n violence is no less than a moral battle feild.. the enemies of this war is not apparent, they are deep seeded immorality,perversion, greed, exposure to inappropriate ready information..all that corrupt the sanctity n sacredness of a child's clean mind
its a fight worth fighting with all that there is to give!! so yes, i will fight!
even if i can touch the life of one child; give him/her a safe home,good food for him/her body,mind and soul; teach him/her manners, morals, ethics, faith, kindness,respect benevolence, aid him/her to grow as an individual with confidence and humility; fulfill him/her talents and in turn touch lives of many others..... i would consider my life worth.

I agree with the implication of peace as a causality of
safety. However, I do not understand your vocalization
of the word fight. I am drawing a mental image where
the whole world is facing inward on me with daggers
drawn and sitting beside me is the child whom I am
trying to protect. I could potentially be doing more harm
than good.
If the question was restated to substitute the word defend
for fight then the defender would not appear as the aggressor.
In my opinion, the proper defense of another individual
is an example of stability and aside from the value of
defending the rights of another individual, other individuals
might feel compelled to participate in the stability.

That isn't my responsibility, so my answer would be "no thanks". I think the question is actually the source of the problem.
Saving a child rests first with the parent. It is their responsibility to keep that child safe in this world. When we take on that role, the parents abdicates their responsibility.
I would much rather hold that parent accountable to protecting a vulnerable child then sluffing it off on others.
When a person makes the decision to have sex and have children and in our social world, they also also have a responsibility to provide care.
Anyone who avoids this ought to be charged under the law -- neglect, failure to meet the necessities of life, etc.
If we continue to bail people out of their responsibilities, no one will learn and generation after generation of vulnerable children will find themselves in harm's way.

I consistently appreciate any individual else's opinion although I do not always agree given that I have no longer walked in that humans footwear. They have come to that end by way of studies in existence and trauma and the college of rough knocks. You aren't self-founded, you rather desire God to make the statement you ask. You are positioned out via a few Christians and so am I. The fact is sensible. God created us. Adam and Eve had an aversion to evil. The best evil they might devote was once to disobey God and devour the forbidden fruit. That was once the one evil open to them. They have been incapable to do truly evil. The Devil got here within the serpent and tricked Eve. Like a youngster within the second, she forgot the admonition of God and partook of the fruit of the abilities of well and evil. The relaxation is historical past. Once one tiny sin is dedicated, it ends up in extra and bigger sin. The worst serial rapist lower assassin in historical past will get there incrementally, no longer unexpectedly. In the tip, the center of a person realizes that he's a sinner and any individual has to pay for all this sin. Jesus Christ is the sin bearer. So there must be no satisfaction whatever within the individual who via religion accepts Jesus as his sin bearer. In reality there must be a want to consultant others to the equal sin bearer as a fellow sinner. But here's what I do not like both. God makes us do all of it via religion. I too could like a extra fingers on God. Yet, I have got to admit the exceptional solutions to prayer I have obtained in my lifetime that suggests that very hand. I desire you uncover the sin bearer too. We want Him.

No, how can you value the life of one child above all the other people that would be fought (i'm assuming you mean some kind of war) How many other children would go hungry because they lost a father or a mother.

It depends, really
add: Based on other comments after mine, aren't i right to say it really depends on the situation?
add: If what you mean is becoming a world hated criminal like saddam(but ure not doing things his way)
to salvage the world like jesus then you might be thinking like killer in death note, Saving the world and you're the only villian.
I personally feel that would be really respectable but it would be too much for me to take, being hated by everyone else

Good question. Yes, it would be worth it. I would die to save a child not even my own.

For my child (biological or not)? ABSOLUTELY.
For someone else's child, I do have a breaking point.
