I fully understand that not everyone agree with the EU human rights that define world views as equally protected as religious beliefs, but the core concept is that every human being is worth the same as humans regardless of what that person believe in, be that a religious text, a shaman, a political view, or just random thoughts they gotten. The medical system especially do not decide which life is worth saving by looking at what the patient believes in which is something everyone benefits from.
Naturally people who do not accept that do not need to donate, but don't expect the medical system to change in order to get more donations. The chaos it would cause would cost more life than it would save, and it would send a very wrong signal to the rest of society.
- deadbabe 2y agoWhy the assumption that every human is worth the same as any other human? Some humans are truly human garbage. Is a mass murderer worth the same as a doctor?
- teddyh 2y agoThese questions were argued at length since time immemorial, and we have in modern times reached some sort of conclusion, most famously defined in the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the United States Declaration of Independence. If you want to reject those documents (and more), that is your choice. But if you want to argue against them, you will have to do better than that.
