Philosophers help me plz How do possible futures & future lives fit into ethics if they don't yet exist Also is there a word like anthropomorphising but in the sense that you treat something as conscious/existing when it ain't
-
They fit into ethics to the extent that they will eventually come to exist. E.g, you sacrifice some of your time to help your future self, who doesn't yet exist. You do this because you think it's likely that future person will come to exist.
