| Description | : | The Case against #empathy
"If a planet of billions is to survive, however, we’ll need to take into consideration the welfare of people not yet harmed —and, even more, of people not yet born. They have no names, faces, or stories to grip our conscience or stir our fellow-feeling. Their prospects call, rather, for deliberation and calculation. Our hearts will always go out to the baby in the well; it’s a measure of our humanity. But empathy will have to yield to reason if humanity is to have a future" http://www.newyorker.com/arts/critics/atlarge/2013/05/20/130520crat_atlarge_bloom?currentPage=all „Doch wir sind nicht alle rational, und einige von uns brauchen vielleicht die Sicherheit verzerrter Schätzwerte, um nicht in eine Lähmung zu verfallen“ , D. Kahneman, Schnelles Denken, S. 241 GOTO TheoretischOptimistisch-PraktischHandlungsstarre GOTO GlobalerSelbstmord-TheWelfareOfTheUnvisibleStillNotBornPeople |
