Intrade: 70.5% chance Obama will win third debate

If who I am is defined by my mind, then I am not the same person I was yesterday. DNA is something that does not change - where we can identify who a person is, ergo, it is the superior marker.

If you wouldn't be the same person tomorrow that you are today, you wouldn't bother to plan for the future because it wouldn't affect you. The claim you are making makes no ****ing sense. And if you knew you were to turn into a zombie tomorrow, with a body but no conscious mind, you would have little reason to care what happens to that body and its DNA because you wouldn't experience it.

Obviously, if your parents had been celibate, that would be evil, since you would not exist. Or are you saying that it is evil for you to exist?

I'm saying no one had a moral obligation to create me. So there would have been nothing wrong with aborting would have been my body in the first trimester.

I'm still me, even if I'm unconscious. Is it ok to molest me if I'm under an anaesthetic, even know I will never 'feel it' or know that it happened?

Then answer my question, are you evil? Because if you are good, why wouldn't it be evil to prevent your existence?

Do you consider anyone good?

No because it's a violation of your personal property to molest you in your sleep. But your personhood is established by the fact that you have qualia.

[Kidlicious]

Do you consider anyone good?

That is a complicated question. Do you? I believe it's good that they exist.

People suck and I don't see any compelling reason why we should have more.

Then why do you care whether or not they have the right to have abortions?

Why should life suck more than it already does?

[DinoDoc]

If life sucks so much for you gribbler, have you considered a warm bath and taking a knife to your wrists?

[regexcellent]

Remember cut down the street not across the block

[Kidlicious]

Why should life suck more than it already does?

According to you, people suck, so why shouldn't life suck?

Wow what a bunch of ****s.

Guys, suicide is hilarious! Ha ha ha!

Or maybe I just lost my sense of humor for such jokes and I'm the ******* here. Whatever.
