This nitwit doesn’t think about what the life would be like for those last surviving few. No food, no fuel, no nothing because those who created those things would be long dead.
What a dope. He assumes that everyone would die all at once.
Agreed, He can lead by example.
And the rest of us who DO think life is worth living will just carry on and create a better world without his ilk in it.
Well that’s stupid! Why wait? If the human race is that bad, it should be eliminated right now! Just have everyone go to a hospital and take the special painless death pills. Those who don’t cooperate will be hunted down by SEIU.
Then, we trust, SEIU will snuff itself. When they are all gone, the first family will be the last to go.
Oh, Singer goes first.
You first Pete.
Why haven’t you killed yourself yet, Singer? I promise I’ll follow you.
Go right ahead and do what you suggest, Mr. Singer! Show folks you’re serious about your ‘concerns’.
Vapid, boorish morons. Both of them.
Somebody got turned down for the Prom, and never got over it.
It is nihilism on stilts. It is also ground already covered by the more depressing of the Existentialists. Fortunately we don’t need Professor Singer’s sanction to be happy.
L’m sorta gettin’ sick of these academic elitist moron thinkers and there irrelevent philosphies.
It would be interesting if the socialists and communists among us took that advice. I wonder what fraction of the next generation would accept their parents’ values and what fraction would follow the modern day Shakers into liberalism as their guides disappeared.
I wonder why neither of these two “philosophers” have yet given weight to their own beliefs and just killed themselves.
The world would certainly be much, much better off without either of them wasting the precious Oxygen my children require to live.
Singer, Benatar...do the right thing. Die as quickly as possible.
I always thought that Deuteronomy 30:19 was kind of rhetorical.
This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live.I never thought that any sane person would willingly choose death and curses, and seek to kill their children's future.
“Be careful with that axe, Eugene.”
(OK - not ~too~ careful...)
Great idea, all the environmentalist whackos who think we are killing the planet must immediately sterilize themselves, or better yet, off themselves.
Then all the progressives who also blame man for all the worlds’ ills.
Peter I suggest you lead the way....thanks!
Yes. Precisely so.
Singer says: “I do think it would be wrong to choose the non-sentient universe.” But he can't tell you why, because the moment he takes his own argument to the next step not only does he have nothing in common with the Benatars of the world, he no longer even has anything in common with his old self anymore. He can't answer that question and remain who he has been until now.
According to Singer, we'd never miss it.
