John 3:16 'For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.' I'm so thankful that my Heavenly Father does not put an arbitrary monetary value on my head, but was willing to pay the ultimate price for my life. Don't listen to this atheist people, listen to God who made you!
Huh... I tend to think people are people. Your question uses valuable in a very loaded way. What do you mean? If it's something like 3.7 retarded people are as valuable as 2.1 paralyzed people, then no I don't think that. Part of the point is that we, as people, all attribute our own value to things.
I guess what bothers me is that I think people have value inherently not that value is attributed to them. I also do not think that value is dependent on a person's abilities.
Some people have at times decided that extremely impaired people are not of full human worth and this does seem to be constant with the idea that our ability to effect causal change is the reason we are valued.
those chicken machines are great! I heard them mention on The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe that they were advertised as capable of being set to the payout scale of the owners choice, like a slot machine.
Yeah, I found one in South Dakota. At a place called Reptile World of all places. And that chicken was tough. I think I was, 17 than ? Anyways, I had nothing on him. I totally got pwnd by that chicken :P
I hired a sheep dog to round up my sheep better than a person!

43,000 bucks for an American human life... sounds about right. I'd buy one.

Are humans who are less able to effect causal change less valuable? For example a mentally retarded person or paralyzed person.

So are people who can "effect less causal change" less valuable? It seems it would logically follow.

I do have the priviledge of being able to say that I've had my ass handed to me in Tic-Tac-Toe by a chicken.
