Here's a question - Can a pro-lifer be feminist as well?
I
am all for women's rights but depending upon when an embryo becomes a
human, whenever that transformation happens as corroborated by science, I am for that human's rights too, that
point forward.
What if an alien race does to humans what humans do to animals?
Would that be "objectively" fair or unfair?
Fair as they would only be reaping what they sowed.
So you are saying, it is only fair if retribution comes our way...
But is objective fairness more about a wrong not happening or righting a wrong?
I missed the tense in your earlier query, my bad!
Fairness should be about preventing a wrong as some of the wrongs cannot be rectified. One can prevent recurrence of those wrongs.
Retribution may provide closure to the sense of victimhood. While it doesn't right a wrong it could sometimes, serve to prevent recurrence by discouraging the perpetrator.
That raises a question. Is retribution desirable or not? Why?
