Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | A subset of Appeal to Nature; if something is naturally predisposed to a certain act or state, it must be accepted. Snakes bite, bears maul, poisons kill, babies scream, sociopaths torture, and Nazis commit genocide; but those are their natures, so we should not hold it against them. The fallacy is, of course, that the people making this claim are conflating inanimate objects, animals, and people. One of the three things I just listed has moral agency (i.e., the capacity to make value judgements based on an abstract idea of right vs. wrong and to be held accountable for those choices), and the other two don't. Guess which one. |
