Fallacy fallacy fallacy.

He's treating nature as if its a god that must be obeyed. Nature is not a god that must be obeyed. If nature had its way, there would no one like me to oppose it. You moron.

You post that every single time I point out that someone is making a fallacious argument. I'm going to start reporting you now.
Fine, whatever.

What sense does it make for a species to force its own extinction because it cannot fulfill a logically impossible moral requirement?

We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.
Answer my question please.
I DID.

Meta actually understands what the fuck I'm saying, and he summed up my position quite well.
No, you didn't.
What's so horrible about suffering if it can be overcome?
Well, you see, statistically speaking... a lot of your kind can't even overcome it.
My "kind"

Well if we're going to play that game, then they simply weren't strong enough to overcome and make something of their life from their pain. That's not to say I don't have sympathy. I could tell you all about how I've hit rock bottom more times than I can even count anymore.

But I'll quote it again:
“Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall”

Wisdom and enlightenment comes from pain and suffering. I've grown from my struggles, and I'm glad I didn't give into the dark depths of my mind. I dealt with suicidal depression for about half of my lifespan.

This is not a healthy state of mind
Jesus Christ. The last instance I know of where a person accused somebody of being mentally ill for disagreeing with them involved a Stalinist.

Not to mention, acknowledgement of the facts (be they moral or physical) doesn't necessitate any sort of emotional state. I hear it all the time from people who aren't determinists; "What's the point to anything? Doesn't it make you miserable?"

No. It doesn't. Searching for truth is liberating in all of its forms, and I'm sure Verbatim agrees.
Calling for the end of life is not a healthy state of mind. Everything in life fuels us all for survival.

Why do you keep restating something nobody even remotely disagrees with?

Wonderful.
Now, is it fair to bring something new into the world which has the potential to suffer even more than yourself did?

Because there's nothing inherently wrong with suffering, which seems to be the entire reason for wanting to eliminate it.

Ya fuckin' ganderneck.
You are completely nonsensical and should probably visit a shrink.
Nuka it's fine if you want to disagree and debate with Verbatim about this, but drop this type of shit when you do it. There is no reason you have to be so insulting when making a point, especially in this forum.

Also, stop lashing back so much, Verbatim. Like I said, this isn't the forum for it.

Can we not have anymore reason to flood reports from this thread? Heysoose cristo.

Nuka, stop trying to balance the utility and disutility of life. Perform a regression and step back; Verbatim is claiming that the INITIAL IMPOSITION of this need to find a balance between utility and disutiliy is immoral in itself, since no utility is lost in the face of a complete lack of disutility.

Life isn't supposed to be fair. Whether it's fair or not doesn't matter.
If they were to suffer more and overcome, then they'd be a stronger and more wise person than I.

If they don't survive, then my pity to them but saying they should've never been born is not for me to decide.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
Moral of the story: adopt so that you don't have to make another suffer, and so that you can limit the suffering for an existing life.

Ah, but it's okay for him to lash out with worse things just because people don't spam the report button?

For the fifth time, it's NOT.

There's nothing inherently wrong with suffering--that doesn't mean it HAS to happen. That doesn't mean it HAS to exist. Invariably, it is BETTER if there is NO suffering.

Verbatim didn't claim suffering--as the negative experiences of conscious creatures--is inherently bad. The badness being discussed is the general disutility being imposed upon people--or, if you like, the suffering minus the overcoming, taken as an aggregate.

In other words, acting out of self interest is the best thing to do, right?

This is neither inherently true or certain.

Did you even read the other posts? Verbatim started it with:

"life is what you make of it, durr"
. . .

OF COURSE THAT'S THE FUCKING GOAL. How the fuck could you NOT know that?

I'd like you to clarify why not having kids--if taken as a moral imperative--is at all logical impossible.

Drawing a triangle with four sides? THAT's logically impossible.

Verbatim's primary argument is that conception is wrong because the one being conceived cannot consent beforehand. But how does that which does not exist consent, or do anything at all for that matter?

Didn't I just tell him to stop lashing out? Explain to me when I ever said it was okay?

I want you to both quit because this board is supposed to be civilized. You're supposed to leave your petty emotions at the door and wipe the bullshit off of your feet when you come in. If you or anyone else doesn't agree then take it up with Cheat since that's what how he wants this forum to be.

ftr I'm trying not to have to lock this thread but it seems to be getting increasingly harder.

There isn't, until you give it purpose.
And giving something purpose is what everything's about.

The universe will continue to exist with life with it as much as we want or don't want it to. To appreciate it for its beauty and accomplishments is better than to sit around pouting about how you with everything was an empty void of nothingness.
