I noticed the webpage for our freely available introductory book Thinking Critically About Abortion hit a 500,000 views recently. Not bad, especially for a philosophy book! www.AbortionArguments.com #abortion #ethics #philosophy #prochoice #prolife

Logic quiz update. Yesterday I asked a random group of people if these are bad arguments and, if so, why. Many, perhaps most, respondents were not able to do that. We can only hope that this was too easy for many people and so they didn't respond. #logic #criticalthinking #syllogisms

And if you are thinking about what'd be best for you *if you didn't know who you were* that requires seeing things from everyone's point of view: that's not any traditional ethical egoism. Finally, I think you are reading things in to the initial post that weren't there.

Anti-abortion folks tend to have very poor arguments, and they are resist to learning that and why (believe it or not!). What does ChatGPT say about some of their claims? What will they think about what ChatGPT says?? #abortion #prochoice #prolife www.abortionarguments.com/2025/01/chat...

A call for materials for a teaching resource, "Everyday Ethical Arguments: Beginning Discussions on Moral Issues" available here: ethicalarguments.blogspot.com #philosophy #philosophysky #teachingphilosophy #ethics #teachingethics #teaching #education #arguments #learning #OER #openeducation

I wish it were, legally, as simple as "abortion bans are unconstitutional; we are done with that!" but it is not. Again, the law is not the only issue here. Here's a free introductory book and materials on the ethical issues that motivate the legal action: www.AbortionArguments.com

Ok, but laws can change and sometimes do, and current or recent laws didn't exhaust this issue, especially since-as the article argues-efforts at changing the law are motivated by (bad) ethical arguments. On persons: www.abortionarguments.com/p/full-text....

For many years I taught an "Animals & Ethics" course for an educational program sponsored buy the Humane Society of the United States. I later took those materials and created this freely available introductory book: www.animalethics101.com #animals #animalrights #animalethics #ethics #vegan

I made a 15 second video with four poor arguments against abortion, and asked anyone to explain why those arguments are bad. It didn't go well: almost all responses were ineffective. Were they too unrepresentative? www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8LqyE56/ #abortion #prochoice #prolife #logic
