Interesting standpoint, I've never heard that argument (I'm also not very deep into this issue just couldn't hold back my superficial 2 cents). But imo it does not really invalidate the opposite standpoint, it just rationalises one point of view.
In that same framework, wouldn't a hospital be also allowed to turn of life support as it sees fit?
- gfodor 5y agoThis framework is relevant because it is the one used to regulate the legality of abortion under Roe v Wade. (Viability) Also re: hospitals, this moral framework has no real analog given the nature of pregnancy being unique. If there were other phenomena where we could become biologically attached (without full intention) to others to sustain them through our own biological functions, then the same legal and moral frameworks seems like they would apply to those scenarios - but I am not aware of any such situations.
