Bruce is a long time friend and also a very clever man. His background is in mathematics and physics, computer science and philosophy, he is also well published in journals such as Bioethics, the Journal of Medical Ethics, Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy, BMC Medical Ethics and The New Bioethics. Bruce’s research interests in bioethics include reproductive ethics, personal identity, conscientious objection in medicine, and euthanasia. He has additional interests in the philosophy of science, philosophy of religion, and information ethics.So he knows a lot and we're going to chat to him about life in the womb and some of the ethics around artificial wombs specifically. Dan's background is medical, Phil's less so - so we'll keep this conversation at Phil's level.#christianity #artificialwombs #abortion--- About the channel ---Dan and Phil are mates who like talking apologetics, philosophy, ethics and theology.

                I Believe in Science - Bruce Blackshaw's Story
            

David Benatar

David Benatar is the world’s leading ‘antinatalist’ philosopher. His controversial book ‘Better Never To Have Been’ argues that the suffering of existence always outweighs any potential good and that it is morally wrong to bring new human beings into the world. A small but growing community of Antinatalists believe that we should stop reproducing and allow humanity to go extinct. Benatar engages with Christian philosopher Bruce Blackshaw on the myriad of questions raised by his philosophy and whether antinatalism is a logical consequence of his atheist perspective.  For David Benatar https://www.amazon.co.uk/Better-Never-Have-Been-Existence/dp/0199549265  For Bruce Blackshaw https://philosophicalapologist.com/ For Unbelievable? the Conference 2020 https://www.unbelievable.live/  Subscribe to our newsletter and receive the free Unbelievable? e-book ‘In Conversation With…’ https://www.premier.org.uk/Unbelievablenewsletter  Support the show and receive all the videos sessions from Unbelievable?
