What in "to decide what life you do and do not bring into the world" is not clear?
Someone checks for disabilities with their to-be-born child, learns that they have one and then decides not to abort. This means they conscientiously make the choice to have one.
I do not think this need to be debated further.
- robertlagrant 6y ago> decides not to abort That's deciding not to do something, not deciding to do something.
- BrandoElFollito 6y agoThis is semantics. Deciding not to do something is a decision one takes. It is not like there is no choice.
- robertlagrant 6y agoYes, and semantics are important. By your definition I make the decision every day not to end the lives of my children, who could for any number if reasons grow up to be a burden on the state. Calling inaction deciding to do something is just a way to frame things to try and make action the default.
