Human life is not an achievement. It is an endowment, a gift from the Creator. It has measureless value, because every human being, at every stage of development and every state of consciousness, is known and loved by God. This is the source of human dignity, the basis for human equality, and the reason for human sanctity. It must therefore be asserted without exception or qualification: No one is worthless whom God has created and for whom Christ died.
