According to any system of morality that both reflects what we generally think about when we consider the words "moral" and "immoral" and doesn't devolve into a meaningless, tautological mess.

Just because they couldn't tailor you to exactly who and what you are, doesn't mean they didn't create you.
If I threw a bunch of bricks into the air and they happened to land in the shape of a house, did I create that house? Nope, a million different variables in my environment did. I was a contributing factor, but not the creator.

Best non-answer to a sterile debate.Mage246 said:I had to devote my efforts to something pressing, I'm afraid. But I'll have a real post in here soon. I'll deal with your arguments tomorrow, when I have time to do it properly. This is a discussion that is important to me, so expect me to continue it when I'm able.
