Essay / Don Marquis' Argument for Abortion - 1296
Therefore, I would like to say that this is a controversial criticism. The future is vague and fortuitous, everyone can have a very different future. The future is distinct from the specific natural property, we could not know our future in the same way that we know our natural properties: eyes, arms; and the future may not be “like ours”, it may be very different even for two normal human beings. The future is unique, perhaps even defined from the very beginning of generic inheritance or environment. The fact is that the future is individual and it is difficult to compare and predict the future of a fetus. As a result, Marquis claims that a future like ours is not capable of defending its interests.
