Philosophy Wire: Live and let DIE you small hypocrite...


Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2014-01-18]: People in the "brainy circles" of our hypocritical society talk about diversity. But how much are differences really valued? “I wonder”, a mother of a child with Down's Syndrome writes, “whether my friends and colleagues would recognize the value of a child who was slower, less capable and more dependent”... [1] Love is hard to find. And even harder to give. Take a nap. Watch TV. Don't care about people with problems or children with genetic problems. You will not see them anyway. You will not let them be born. Being active is hard. Giving your hand is hard. Being passive is easy. Live and let DIE... Change the channel. I am bored.
