No we've not been genetically engineering. We've been breeding.

Difference in practice, offer people in prison and in the psych ward the choice to receive a lethal dose of morphine instead of staying

Which is different.

@Thijs Peters hello my fellow country-man 😃

yea your selecting genes for your child to your specification

Hi. @CoffeeShopsHQ (Ardahan)

by selecting a dude who is at least this tall with these features

I have no problem with that. I have problem with genetic engineering.

@Thijs Peters hoe is het ermee meneer?

how is it any different?

Also with plants.

And livestock.

Circumenting natural processes.

no problems with plant engineering

@Rhunespire it is for the weak, but that will always be a “terrible” thing to say. It can easily be viewed as a logical thing instead of an emotional one, but....

nobody has a choice to be here

@MufflePuff indeed it can be a verty logical choice

so why should suicide be viewed as week

It is the logical choice.

i didnt choose to be here

Yet you can't.

Ive had 2 men suicide on me in the recent past

If I want to die the legal way they won't allow it.

its... i dont like that they are gone but im glad they had the option

If they suspect I'll do it myself they stop me.

@shadowlessnexus nobody did brother. But we’re still here tho. And nothing we can do

@Thijs Peters so anyway way is selecting a mate to your specifications circumventing natural processes

No.

@Thijs Peters actualy, no

not really

ok so nature is already genetically engineering us then

which makes sense.

@Thijs Peters it would be HIGHLY Illegal to stop someone from suiciding

since only the strong survive

Lol no.

It's illegal to not prevent someone from doing it.

Everyone is weak at some times, and some people make rash choices in their moments of weakness. There’s nothing “wrong” with being weak and nothing wrong with killing yourself in your moment of weakness.

Thats illegal restraint at the very least

I've been told that by the doctor and therapists.

@Thijs Peters not in europe its not. Its illegal to prevent someone from doing it

@Thijs Peters In The Netherlands this is a big point. ‘Anesthesie’ honestly i think every1 should make his own choice if he wants out
