Hi,
Sounds like an interesting discussion, although its somewhat
theoretical in nature :) I guess a similar moral debate will
arise in the future when we are able to create new beings.
"Isnt it better that they experience life, than not at all?
As long as they arent mistreated, and are given a measure of
freedom?" This will be an interesting discussion when various
religious factions oppose the whole consept. There is a technological revolution going on, and our morale and ethics will be tested in the years to come. I only hope i live long enough to
experience it, my guess is it will be quite a spectacle :)
