Here is how to think about morality.

Unread post

It begins with a question:

What will our grandchildren condemn us for in a hundred years?

http://aeon.co/magazine/philosophy/what ... ars-hence/

Notice thought number one:

Rights for future generations.

This would include both caring for our environment AND finding alternatives for "the necessity" of abortions.

What are your thoughts on this?

Your link indicates that we somehow choose our gender.

Is that your view?

How many genders do you recognize and when did you choose yours?

I think that I have no choice in being my gender as gender is my instincts telling me what I am.

I cannot go against my own instincts.

From the first chapter of what you linked.

"We will use the pronoun ‘heesh’ to refer to all persons equally, regardless of their chosen gender."

Is it my view tbat we should select a gender neutral pronoun like "heesh" now or in the future?

I dont care but I dont think that's what the article promotes or says should or will be a social or morally appropriate idea a hundred years from now.
Did you read the article while hanging upside down in your closet or what?

We have not even begun a discourse and already you start in with the insults. Nice agenda.

Let me try again.
