I've moved a lot since we last had this dance, so don't argue against skeletons.
you won't know my current views until the right time.
In truth, I just want to take a position to keep this discussion going.
So, let's deal with the logic of it. Premise no 1 (going back to your long post on p3--on phone don't want to mess with quoting) re ownership, I just want to make sure I have a definitional understanding before engaging.
As a distinct, sovereign individual (short version - Can you think my thoughts? Can I think your thoughts? Can you move my body? Can I move your body? Can you feel my emotions? Can I feel your emotions? Etc.) A man's life is his own. Whose else but his could it be? Parenthetically, it's often at this point that collectivists will jump in and point out the many ways a man's life has been influenced and impacted by others. Individualists shouldn't deny this, but there is no binding, contractual claim on that man's life as a consequence, unless he specifically and individually consented.
Premise no 2, setting aside my continuing problem with "man is man" - let's say that's the case - does your argument not presuppose the existence of any objective truth (or what that would look like if it did exist).
Objective truth, in that it is logically deductible... not in that it has been handed down from on high and is therefore indisputable. To borrow the phrase of Thomas Jefferson, that men are created equal is self-evident. That effectively means that any reasonably capable person is able to come to that conclusion on his own, without revelation, or without scientific methodology (see above).
So I would say so, and that is what it looks like, if we can agree on that concept of objective truth.
