| Mar 1, 2012 at 3:39 | comment | added | Aqibha Y. Weisinger Etc | The quotes about tzelem elokim and nishmat chaim are the main sources. The authors of "Torat Hamelech" who allowed the murder of non-jews, adduced proof from their assertion that there is a qualitative difference between Jewish souls and non-Jewish souls. I do not think that approach works in the sources. | |

Otherwise, the only thing in your answer that's relevant to the question AFAICT is the quote about nishmas chayim. | |
