Human Life is Replaceable

Human life is inherently reproducible. Just like livestock and all other animals, humans can and do breed to produce babies, most of which become children then adults. While each human has a personality – as do many animals – humans really just are masses of carbon-based cells and water.

Raising a human life is an expensive proposition for sure, and their raising and life consumes a lot of resources, there really is nothing special about humans. Most humans only live about 70-80 years, and while they contribute to their families and communities in innumerable ways, their personal impact on the larger world over time is fairly minimal. It’s sad to see a loved one or a friend leave this world, but realistically their just one of millions, one whose life will be reproduced like any other commodity at the factory.
