Well basically every argument of yours other than feelings, but especially the a-b-c-d list that was on page 3 if I remember correctly. What I don't j...
So basically you now throw away all the arguments you have said in this thread, for example whether the person exists and has opinions prior to the ha...
You're imagining a scenario where imagining and not being capable of imagining something are the same thing. That is impossible, just like a triangula...
Which is wrong why? The exact act of mutilation is wrong for no reason because it has intrinsic moral value? No, it's wrong because it's harmful and c...
You're assuming that triangular circle exists (as in exists physically). It doesn't and can't exist in our universe. Within where a circle that is not...
How are they not? You yourself said you don't consider the baby to be a person yet, so within the premise of OP that life is suffering and pain the si...
But if you make someone exist, it's basically the same thing. (a), (b) and (c) do not apply but you're causing the physical effect of them physically ...
But there is. Non sequitur. That "if-then" is incorrect, you can't conclude that. What you can conclude from that I can imagine a circle being non-cir...
Law is a word if human language that refers to multiple different things. Now if you want a definition of law, you first have to give a definition. Th...
Ok, so we rephrase that so that people's subjective opinion of their own life quality and its worth is negative. If the question is how we compare the...
Doesn't antinatalism believe the birth to be negative to the person who is born because the life of the person who is born is suffering and mainly neg...
I can imagine the concept, not the shape. I can imagine a triangular circle physically existing within this universe, but I don't believe that to be p...
If birth has negative value, wouldn't killing the baby immediately prevent that negative value of potential suffering? Ok... So it's morally right to ...
Isn't that an antinatalist opinion? I didn't mention operations, I'm talking of pain for the sake of it, just to cause them both physical and emotiona...
Of course that's possible. That's not the question, the question is whether the specific case of being created is an example of such an action. There ...
This is something I can completely get behind of and almost exactly what I would've originally posted, had you not been faster. There is always an opt...
Whether the person exists prior or after is irrelevant. There is no consent and the are potentially detrimental consequences for the person who is to ...
It's reasonable to expect that there are no positive consequences for the person raped. Saving the life of a person in coma would be far more accurate...
While writing this reply I clicked the "reply" button using my left hand. I just made a claim. So the burden of proof is on me then? Well, I can't pro...
This forum is not where I expected to be the one to remind people that the burden of proof works both ways, that a claim can be dismissed doesn't equa...
Well this is impressive, surprising that there were no replies. This looks like a logical fallacy to me. Firstly, just because the absence would be pr...
Nothing can mean at least the following: Nothing within a specified context (for example, there is nothing in the jar on my shelf (to be exact, there'...
I disagree with that. I can't imagine what the shape of triangular circle is like, but I can imagine the concept. And that is the case for imaginary t...
Faced the same trouble. I got humanism as my result from the quiz, but I'm not quite sure of that. I suppose the poll asked for the test result instea...
@OP: I'm not sure at this point whether you're talking about forcing people to live or forcing them to work and function as parts of our societies, bu...
What I'm interested in is why do people take the interesting topic of theism vs atheism (vs agnosticism) and then limit the discussion to the Christia...
