PHI EXAM 2 - Coggle Diagram

- - - - abort for purpose of vengence
      - main problem case
        
        does not want to be a mother
        
        Duane- women ought to pregnancy for mans sake (can force someone to do whats right)
- - - - if FLO matters then elderly not wrong to kill, 88yr > 25yr
    - - 1) killing wrong because rob of FLO, 2)potentially wrong to kill more than humans (martians > spider), 3) not wrong to kill elderly
  - - - Discontinuation: most people value life, killing wrong because discontinue exp
      - Desire: most people dont want to die, killing wrong because violation of persons desire
      - Alternative problems
        
        FLO = grounding view
        
        Discontinuation: only bad if we enjoy life, if coma indifferent to FLO? wrong;
        
        Desire: wrong to kill who dont want to live (asleep, suicidal)
        
        Challenge
        
        if not value future then its not of value, reply: false, can have valuable future even if not valued right now
- - - - Familiar biological facts are what matters in ethics of abortion
      - what pregnancy is like, how long, how impregnated is what matters
      - May develop deep connections when not wanted (fetus)
  - - - could have right to abortion: yet still be immoral
      - fetus right to life and womrn still not be vicious in aborting
- - - - future set or isnt, if isnt Harmon wrong that fetus has moral value; if future set and decides not to abort: would have been morally wrong to abort
      - diagree with Harmon, cant mourn something with no intrinsic moral status,
  - - - upset about early miscarriage but cannot appropriately mourn death
      - abortion choice will determine moral status of fetus
      - can be wrong to harm early fetus= same above ^
      - early fetus can be loved = if actual future then has M&I value
  - - - If creation has no intrinsic value, justified to treat it any way (bad poetry)
      - early fetus has no intrinsic value under AFP
      - Liberal view: early abortion requires no justification
- - - - right to life does not always trumps other rights
      - Narrow point: RtL no obligation
      - Broad point: abortion is permissible full stop, but not the point (complicated)
      - Objection
        
        question at hand: fetus has right to life, cannot infer right to someone elses body even with right to life
        
        extreme view
        
        abortion not allowed even if pregnancy risks mothers life?
        
        she chose to bring about the fetus?
        
        greater right to life because it is her body
- - - - consent cannot be transmitted to other parties
      - sex consent that leads to pregnancy confuses acceptance of risk with commitment
      - if know you can get pregnant have you consented to pregnancy? No
