I have some pretty strong feelings about eugenics (it's a good and necessary practice), but I find it very, VERY difficult to talk about it with anyone since I'm instantly labeled a Nazi for…Continue

Heather Spoonheim replied to Schroeder Alice Veidt's discussion 'Eugenics - A touchy subject I'd like to explore'"Yes, now taking that program and tacking on free tube tying/vasectomy to those who donate sperm/eggs in order to encourage planned parenthood. If the U.S. is too crippled by Christianity to take part then I guess they wallow in disease."
Joseph COulter replied to Schroeder Alice Veidt's discussion 'Eugenics - A touchy subject I'd like to explore'""Either screening the sperm/egg to the end of swapping the sperm/egg if one doesn't like the probability offered of passing problematic genetic traits or screening the ebryo for invitro fertilization."
Ok but out of the two why…"

Joseph COulter replied to Schroeder Alice Veidt's discussion 'Eugenics - A touchy subject I'd like to explore'"So when you say "swap" genetic material, you don't mean matching to a different partner? You mean switching the specific sperm and egg.
To be honest, I don't have the knowledge of genetics that would be required to…"
Heather Spoonheim replied to Schroeder Alice Veidt's discussion 'Eugenics - A touchy subject I'd like to explore'"I'll check the vid when I get home from work - I don't have 20 minutes to spare in my morning routine today. Anyway, all I'm suggesting for a program is an system that will empower people to truly control their own reproduction.…"
Joseph COulter replied to Schroeder Alice Veidt's discussion 'Eugenics - A touchy subject I'd like to explore'"I'm sorry, I'm having trouble understanding the proposed program. The eggs and sperm are collected and them matched together and then given back on demand?
"does this sound incredibly unrealistic?"
"Now, don't…"
Heather Spoonheim replied to Schroeder Alice Veidt's discussion 'Eugenics - A touchy subject I'd like to explore'"Ok, so what if there were a publicly funded program that offered free tubal-ligation/vasectomy as well as storage of your eggs/sperm for later use? Upon deciding to reclaim your 'donation' you could also have the publicly funded…"
Joseph COulter replied to Schroeder Alice Veidt's discussion 'Eugenics - A touchy subject I'd like to explore'"For two people who want to hand pick each other for the genetics, it doesn't have to be involuntary. However I don't think that the widespread scale scenario is realistic voluntarily(sorry to have not been clear on that).
As I…"

Joseph COulter replied to Schroeder Alice Veidt's discussion 'Eugenics - A touchy subject I'd like to explore'"I think that it's an almost meaningless arguement, because transhumanism makes eugenics obsolete. Some may say that most of the accomplishments of eugenics that could theoretically be replaced by transhumanism don't exist yet, however…"

Orpharion Oroborus Bestheneme replied to Schroeder Alice Veidt's discussion 'Eugenics - A touchy subject I'd like to explore'"It's not about saying who is allowed to, it's just about making your genes healthier before they begin the baby-making process so your child is healthier than it otherwise would be. And many people here agree it should be a choice, not a…"
