What, to you, is the most cruel thing a human being can do?

Torture? Betrayal? Abandonment? Abortion? Murder? Adultery? Abuse? Doesn't have to be limited to what human beings can do to one another. Feel free to bring in issues like animal abuse if you feel passionately enough about it.

I think all you said is cruel, but the most cruel for me is murder and abortion. It all deals with killing people. We don't have the right to take others' life. God has the right. :)

Hmmm..I get where the two of you are coming from..really I do. But I personally lean a bit more on the pro-choice side.. Is it still cruel if not having the abortion will severely endanger the mother and baby? Is it still cruel if it is confirmed that the baby will be deformed in some way??

Oooops, sorry I answered incompletely. I am not referring to all conditions before abortion. I am really referring to teens who need to abort their babies just to avoid getting demoralized by the society. I mean the teenage pregnant girls who didn't mean to be pregnant.

i would think the mist creul thing a person can do is to ignore the other person completly when the person is trying his best to get his attention. abortion is also not far behind.it is another expression of murder of an helpless indivual.

Ouch! Yes. I agree with the ignoring people thing. Have had personal experience with it before and it hurt like crazy. Thanks for the response!

I think there isn't anyone alive who would like to be ignored...Just the lack of recognition for someone's existence is a horrible thought. But yes, I agree with you- I will not make a fool out of myself and lose my dignity just for the sake of attention. I'd like to believe that we are better than that...

It is so cruel. Yea, it really hearts me from the inside. Really breaks my heart. I don't want to be ignored. But we can not avoid it. I will not make myself funny just to get more attention.
