old debate between peter singer and Harriet McBryde Johnson

Post by bobo0100 »

I don't know how obvious it is that I am a huge peter singer fan boy, but it is a charge I would not reject.

In 2002 he debated Harriet McBryde Johnson, at the time I was 5 so its safe to say that I did not see the event. Taking a look for it on the internet has returned no results other than clarifying that the debate did happen. Is the debate worth seeking out? Have you seen the debate? what do you think about the issue, being euthanasia of children (below 10 days old) with genetic disability's?
vegan: to exclude—as far as is practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for any purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals and the environment.
