Richard Dawkins claims we should eat lab-grown human meat

[shadow]

He says it will help us overcome the taboo against cannibalism.

Cool, expect that's not what he said at all.

"What if human meat is grown? Could we overcome our taboo against cannibalism? An interesting test case for consequentialist morality versus “yuck reaction” absolutism."

He's asked whether we could bring ourselves to do this, as a psychological question. He's not saying we need to make human burgers a thing.


I don't understand why people like to take things out of context and then be offended by them. It's really quite annoying.
