[Serious] Moral Obligations toward Possible Worlds
#88
RE: Moral Obligations toward Possible Worlds
That same agglomerative value system can also give us granularity in environmental activism. We all want the same thing, for our children not to starve or suffocate or die of thirst or be forced to kill their peers directly or through apathy and assent. So - burn your carbon. Meet your level and reach parity with the good life - and then, immediately then, join us in figuring out how to live beyond those means...because, then, you'll be where we are now. Then, but not before then, our arguments that apply to us will apply to you.

Back to that comment I made about people who, like myself, think abortion isn't a good thing. That's all well and good, but until we successfully overcome the valid objections to our insistence - what are we even talking about? It's all on us, all on the interested.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
