No you can’t.
Your claim here is purely ad hoc nonsense, which completely begs the question.

Irrelevant. Food and oxygen are not ‘bodily resources.’ This talk of “taking possession” is completely contrived. Again, hypocrisy.There is no obligation to provide bodily resources to keep someone alive. Not even a renewable bodily resource as blood. No one has the legal right to invade your body without your permission and use your body for their benefit. To refuse your bodily resource is not “murder” it is not even “killing”. It is a “foreseen but unintended consequence” or refusing someone else to take possession of your body. Simple.

Historical evidence counts for nothing if a person is blind to the fact that morality in an amoral universe is meaningless…What confuses me is all the historical evidence we have of that very thing. In just the past century we have seen more than a 100 million slaughtered by various atheist regimes.

You misunderstand what they are saying. Read about the slaughter of the innocents in the Gospel of Luke. It’s very clear.Ignatius:
According to many apologists there is no such thing as an “innocent” person. We are all guilty of sins, and we all deserve hell.
You know, you’d benefit yourself a lot more by being intellectualy honest and trying to understand the principals instead of doing mental and linguistic gymnastics in order to avoid true understanding.
God bless you.

From the Catholic Encyclopedia:
Homicide signifies, in general, the killing of a human being. In practice, however, the word has come to mean the unjust taking away of human life, perpetrated by one distinct from the victim and acting in a private capacity. . .
The direct killing of an innocent person is, of course, to be reckoned among the most grievous of sins. It is said to happen directly when the death of the person is viewed either as an end attractive in itself, or at any rate is chosen as a means to an end. The malice discernible in the sin is primarily chargeable to the violation of the supreme ownership of God over the lives of His creatures.
