all
mostly family in the begining
then your greater group and the the nation
even all of humanity counts
though less
Ehhhh not really. Should I? I care about those who share my ideals I suppose.
there are greater rights for those within the family and less for those outside
How do you know this?
your husband and children have more rights then the Chinese communist to you but he still has soem
I still don't quite know what you mean by "right"
Are rights just whatever we agree to gurantee to people?
Rights are the recognition of what is necessary for a rational being to live in a society; it is a moral principle that defines and sanctions an individual's freedom of action in a societal context.
But a society can exist and thrive without rights.
the closest to you are are allowed more
no it can't
Not individuals will survive in that society, byt the society itself could.
it was proven with religion
and it's success
Hm?
But societies have had abortion, and this doesn't seem to be destroying them.
Some moral codes allow abortion though.
and they hurt society
Like mine.
Do they?
Hurt by what metric?
but to a lesser extend than others and most people don't care
by what matric?
Yes do they shorten the lifetime of society's, reduce happiness?
What metric
How do we quantify the amount of hurt for society?
longevity success and happiness
more children bring more success
this happened in Europe and will happen in Africa
that has yet to be demonstrated. And I can say that it hurts society to ban abortion by my own metrics.
why?
child is far more likely to be beneficial
Because it does. My metric is "freedom from unwanted pregnancy"
I might value this more than any potential venefit
your matric isn't societal matric
Sure it is
