    NEW TOPIC: Bioethics.

    In my opinion, the Nazi doctor's defense position is actually quite good, given what they were accused of. The Nazis also could arguably have been said to have made medical progress. If that is so...should that information be destroyed out of respect for the people hurt, published in secret for the betterment of the living, or what?


    that's a problem. Take what I was saying about Hypothermia. The Nazi's were giving prisoners hypothermia to help their troops in Russia. In other words, they were doing it "For Science". However, because of the inhumanity of it, it used to be a bit of a touchy subject on what to do with all this documented evidence that could save countless lives because it was attained through murder and torture of innocents. I personally believe that the information is there and it'd be wrong to let someone die because the information that could've saved them was received the wrong way. However, we should prevent the suffering of others for scientific gain.

    Well it happened and it helped. The way data is gathered can sometimes be more accurate if it is gained unethically. But if it is gathered ethnically then more people approve of it. Thats my dumbed down view.

    Put it this way.

    It's impossible to become immortal based on our laws. If the laws were different everyone would be immortal, same applies if immortality comes from technology.

    There is a way to be immortal but it invloves a supercomputer and a cloning facility.

    Is that all you love? If so, is it not possible for technology to digress or possibly progress so much to create a pseudo-utopiac society that is illusioned by "technology"?

    I would like that.


    Instead of arguing about dystopias and Plato's Cave and Ayn Rand, let me present a more dire argument: once all of humankind is destroyed but you, doomed to live until the ends of time alone with no-one and nothing to turn to but yourself, would that not affect a man? Would that not destroy him from the inside out?

    Yes i would go insane. For millenia i will wander around doing nothing. I might eventually snap and turn sane. Very sane. Then I could start to learn about the universe or maybe fall of a cliff and die.

    People have emotions. Take love, for example. People become attached and fond of eachother. So, now imagine a world where everyone you love will eventually vanish within time and not being able to do anything about it. imagine knowing this and it still happening.

    The obvious argument to this is simple: Over time, you will become used to this.
    Or another argument is: One needs to learn not to get so attached to other people/things.

    In both cases, it involves destroying your emotions, even partially. What is anyone without emotions? What is life without emotions? Yes, one can exist indefinitely with immortality but can one really live?

    Im in it for the science. So yah i think i cant kill myself inside.

    Another one of these threads?

    Quote from Sui »
    Being immortal would be a blessing and a curse, watching all you ever loved die around you again and again... you would have to learn to block grief.


    And blocking the grief would mean taking out emotions which would screw you up a bit, to put it bluntly.

    Yah i started this thread from that comment. But how would it screw me up?
