    Eugenics?

    isnt it better to kill someone for the betterment of humanty rather than for any of the reasons governments around the world kill now?
  2. i guess so. im not going to sacrifice my looks for the sake of a potential human. whats in it for me?

    Eugenics?

    whether they themselve cause any problems is irrelevant. we are discussing the human race, not individuals. worthless genetic dross should be discarded, not preserved because 'they're not hurting anyone'.
  4. why do you ask that?
  5. do you have any links discussing the empathy of animals? do you believe guilt is related to compassion and empathy? is it inborn, or can it be learnt?

    Eugenics?

    of course not. why should thier 'right' to have children outweigh the good of all humanity?
  7. if id been aborted i wouldnt be here to wonder. this question is irrelevant. the matter at hand is the will of the mother, not the hypothetical 'rights' of a child or fetus. if my birth control failed, id flush it without a second thought. why should i **** up my figure with pregnancy?
  8. so compassion is also arbitrary? and emotions? how would someone learn them later in life? but what if a persons enviroment is normal, thier family are typical caring middle-class types, and yet somehow the person still fails to learn morality? how can such a person develope this skill later in life?
  9. sounds good. where do i sign up?
  10. whats the big deal with abortion? if a woman doesnt want her kid, why stop her flushing it? millions of kids die every year from disease and starvation, why is abortion worse? and isnt it better to kill an infant rather than have a brat nobody wants? its not as if we have a shortage of people.
  11. 5) no convincing mechanism for psychic powers has ever been proposed.
  12. yes, please. also, what relationship do you think morality has to compassion and emotion?
  13. so do you think morality is instinctive? if so, is a capacity for morality present which is then developed, as with language?
  14. it needs no explanation. it is only hearsay.
