  • Just to clarify, I’m not advocating for any baby to be taken off life support, that’s a pretty abhorrent thing to accuse me of, if that’s what you meant.

    I work in critical care and routinely bring people back from the brink of death. With a living being, unless otherwise stated, their consent to life saving treatment is implied, and I’m happy to give it.

    Philosophically, I’m just not convinced that there is such a thing as an implied consent to “make me exist when I don’t exist already”.
