It's not though, death is natural and inevitable. There are also practical considerations: if death is eliminated, we must stop reproduction too.

- kiba 15y agoIt's not though, death is natural and inevitable You committed the naturalistic fallacy. Also, inevitability isn't a justification for bad things happening. There are also practical considerations: if death is eliminated, we must stop reproduction too. I would prioritize existing lives over the yet to be born.
- rayiner 15y ago> I would prioritize existing lives over the yet to be born. From an evolutionary point of view that makes very little sense.
- ugh 15y agoWhat? How's that relevant?
- gnaritas 15y agoEvolution has no desire to make sense, it's a blind natural process with no intent or point of view. From a human point of view, what he said makes perfect sense.
- loup-vaillant 15y agoPlus, that is again a naturalistic fallacy.
- adrianN 15y agoInsulin and antibiotics also make very little sense from that point of view.
- joelrunyon 15y agoI don't understand this line of thinking. Even in startup culture, it makes sense that some business (existing lives) have to die in order for new business models (those yet to be born) to emerge. What's to say that the existing lives won't hinder growth that would happen from new lives being born and re-imagining the world that everyone is used to?
