Something that no one has discussed in this highly enlightened conversation here is the issue of consent. A person cannot consent to being born. Full stop. I don't know of a way around that besides ignoring it.

What's consent to a being that doesn't exist?

[–] retrieval4558@mander.xyz 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nothing, unless they start existing.

So, how does the concept make any sense? Can I get consent from an angel, too?

I'm not sure what your point is here

[–] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My point is that the whole premise of "consent for existing" is bogus.

[–] retrieval4558@mander.xyz 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And how does that relate to angels?
