Dawkins proves why his haters really really need to learn about the principle of charity: https://richarddawkins.net/2014/08/abortion-down-syndrome-an-apology-for-letting-slip-the-dogs-of-twitterwar/ …

@SIN_Notung The distinction he wants to draw between "This fetus should be aborted" & "This person should have been aborted" is... dubious.

@PhilosophyExp I think it's ok. In one sense (strictly speaking) if one is true during birth then the other will true later on. But...

@PhilosophyExp as personhood develops (i.e. value introduced) then in some way the latter statement's truth is 'eroded' away. Maybe :p
