Abortion isn't genocide, loving christ. I'm all for not allowing pregnancies that suffer complications to be terminated at the parent's discretion. My ex and I weren't planning on having a child that already had a debilitating disease for ethical and personal reasons, which are no one's business but ours. So, save the loving genocide bullshit. If someone tried rounding up autistic people, or mentally retarded people, or people with Down syndrome, I'd be the first to do something to stop them. It's not equivalent at all.Ogmius815 posted:I actually hold the beliefs I do about personal identity as a result of the influence of Buddhist philosophy. Me, too. That and seeing several extended family members suffer from various brain injuries (motorcycle accident, stroke, aneurysm) and turning into completely different people. The idea that there's some "you" deep down that isn't simply an abstraction is really pretty indefensible given the facts, as far as I can see.
