MOST CONTROVERSIAL ISSUE?
—“Curt Doolittle: Whatâ??s the most controversial social issue that is the most difficult to solve for propertarianism?”—Philip Clark
Religion without exception. Abortion because it is so passionate and it is not a question of law but of choice on the part of the community. hence the necessity of small custom communities.
I’ll say this:
-
Abrahamic religion is a rather obvious bad – but it appears we are stuck with it.
-
Abortion is very difficult because (a) it is never clear that we aren’t just trying to suppress sexuality (which is fine) but address the underling question not abortion, (b) whether it’s any different or worse than ‘exposure’ by which women have killed more lives than all wars in history combined. (c) whether it’s simply a better choice than putting children into terrible circumstances and hostile environments. (d) whether it’s tragic for many young couples who are not sufficiently adult and if there is any alternative, (e) that there shouldn’t be some additional penalty for failing to use protection. My opinion is keep it legal but make couples pay dearly for it over the long term. But it’s only an opinion.
