Dolphins.

     We all love them, right? So cute; so innocent. So fun to watch jumping out of the water. Did you know that baby dolphins are born underwater? Of course that makes sense, but just picture the first time you open your eyes, you are ten to even thirty feet below the surface of the ocean, immediately dashing to the surface for that first breath of air.

     Now, if someone put a net between a newborn dolphin and their first breath of air, would they technically be killing the baby? I mean, it still hasn't taken it's first breath yet. It hasn't lived even long enough to claim it really is alive.

     That is killing? Howcome? People do that all the time; just, with their own children. So how come killing a baby dolphin who hasn't taken their first breath yet is bad, but killing a baby human who hasn't taken their first breath yet isn't?

     Yeah. I'm confused too.
