Human life is worth saving. The end.
Dec. 31st, 2013 02:53 pmReading this old article, about the world's youngest surviving premature baby, and this quote stands out:
"We live in a society where we have become addicted to physical existence. It's totally unsustainable. Our attempts at the moment to keep every human physically alive as long as possible will make it less likely that the human race will survive climate change."
Considering the fact that physical existence is the only one that we're sure of exist - devout believers disagree - it's basic human decency to give every human a chance to live as long as possible. Without life, there is nothing..
It's also noteworthy that the people who talk about letting some people die for the greater good, sacrificing a few so that many can live, to preserve the climate, etc etc, are never the ones in danger of being left to die.
Does it cost a lot of tax payer money for every rare premature baby that is saved? Yes, and saving people's lives should be allowed to cost money.
On a lighter note! It is New Year's Eve, the last fest in the Birthday -Christmas Eve - New Year's Eve three stage rocket and in a few hours I will be at my friend's house drinking champagne and eating Hors d'oeuvre in a gold-themed outfit with a ridiculous amount of make-up on.
I hope you all have a wonderful New Year's Eve, and a wonderful 2014!
