Originally posted by Lanny Typically utilitarians, myself included, will argue that being able to feel pain does imply moral considerably. I think the question "can a fetus feel pain" is biologically more complex than asking "does the fetus have nerve cells". It seems pretty easy to imagine biological systems with nerve cells without the ability to feel pain, e.g. those in which the central nervous system is not functional or sufficiently developed.
Also utilitarians are committed to the maximization of utility, meaning minimizing pain and maximizing pleasure in hedonic utilitarianism. That doesn't mean everything which causes pain is wrong, in the abortion scenario we can imagine that the disutility experienced by an unwanted pregnancy may well be greater than the amount of suffering implied by abortion and justified on those grounds. It does lead to the conclusion that there are some scenarios where abortion can't be justified but, unlike many utilitarians I've talked to, that's never really bothered me.
Do you think Malice was right about antinatalism? -
