 Better never to have been
David Benatar's Better Never To Have Been challenges a deep source of status quo bias. Benatar argues that coming into being is always a harm. Consequently the ideal population size is zero. "Best not to have been born", observed Sophocles, and Benatar concurs. Better Never To Have Been advocates the merciful extinction of all sentient life. |
