Example: I believe that IP is a direct contradiction of nature, sacrificing the advancement of humanity and the world for selfish gain, and therefore is sinful.

    Because I don’t think there’s a point to living without reproduction. Everything else is living a pointless life of minor hedonism and disappearing into oblivion at the end.

    I don’t think doing so is immoral, just pointless

      So, you’ve internalized life’s universal purpose as your own. It’s not necessary or even noble. Life will take care of itself.

      There’s all sorts of types of reproduction.

      Take the reproduction of knowledge, for example. Say you have a person who never had kids, but dedicated their life’s work to something like Project Gutenberg. They’ve ensured art and writing and understanding is reproduced for generations to come. Is that pointless?

      So the meaning of life is … the continuation of life? Or to put it another way, life is the meaning of life. That seems rather tautological.

      I don’t think life is ‘less pointless’ if you procreate. It’s both very pointless, except for personal fulfilment. What should it matter if you follow a path that evolution laid out before you. With consciousness, there is no more reason to consider that path in my eyes, just do what feels right.

      Bringing a person into existence for your own entertainment is the ultimate form of pointless hedonism

      So you believe that every person on the planet should be a parent? Is 7 billion people not enough for you?
