Re: Friday Five March 29
If you meant my questions, Ed, I was asking if the3 generic human l;ife was more valuable than the generic life of a member of another species. I was trying to avoid Celeste's almost guaranteed qualifier, "...this is impossible to answer since I do not know which?human or which dog..." (Love you, Celeste!) The idea was to explore the concept of the value of life and the human role as ever-expanding masters of the planet. This has some relevance?to modern political and scientific concerns, such as the impacts, if any, people are having on other species and the global biosphere. I personally do not feel?humanity is inherently more important?than wolverines or starfish, or even ferns, yet I would likely save a human?baby at the cost of destroying an entire anthill. Not so amazing on that scale, but would I feel it is imperative to save a million babies at the cost of the entire Amazon rain forest? D On Fri, Mar 29, 2024 at 6:46?PM Ed Lomas <relomas2@...> wrote:
