Response to: Correspondence on ‘No, pregnancy is not a disease’ by Colgrove and Rodger
Colgrove and Rodger argue that the case advanced by Smajdor and Räsänen for classifying pregnancy as a disease can be defeated by an existence proof—that is, by identifying at least one plausible theory of disease that excludes pregnancy while avoiding objections raised by Smajdor and Räsänen. Their candidate is a dysfunction account, according to which a disease requires the failure of some internal mechanism to perform its biological function. …
On the Subjective Value of Life
Claims (or the implicit assumption) of the inherent worth of life are pervasive and remain virtually unchallenged. I have already argued that these outright moral dictates are thinly veiled vestiges of theological ethics which, following the removal of their theological foundations, remain little more than nebulous claims supported only by fear of the consequences of a challenge. In my previous work, I rejected an a priori claim of an objective l…

In recent years, the debate has become increasingly fierce, polarized and even physically violent. Design/methodology/…
A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Votes of People with Short Life Expectancy from Being a Long-Term Burden to Their Country
In response to the growing social discontent regarding what is perceived as generational injustice, due to younger generations of voters facing long-term negative consequences from issues disproportionately decided by the votes of older generations of voters, there have been suggestions to introduce an upper age voting threshold. These have been all but universally dismissed as offensive and contrary to basic democratic values. In the present art…
