Atheism (or agnosticism in my case) doesn't mean one is immoral, rather most of these people believe in ethics. This means that acts have right and wrong consequences simply because they affect others in a way that others view as good or bad. I personally can not accept a respect for life on religious grounds. I do however respect life on simple humanist grounds. I think it is wrong to kill someone else because it will hurt their families and those who love them. It doesn't hurt them because they are dead. A zygote can't think, and thus does not really contain the one thing that I think defines a human being, consciousness and thought. It it the mind that defines a person and sets them above animals.
