Discussion article for the meetup : Brussels: Morality - also cake
On one train track: three transhuman babies. On the other train track, a utility monster who regularly paints masterpieces. Next to you on the bridge, a very fat blue-spotted giraffe, last of its kind. What's a moral agent to do? And what if the giraffe... was your mother? All these questions and more won't be answered in this month's meetup.
We may have to taboo a lot of words in the process, so recommended reading: http://lesswrong.com/lw/nu/taboo_your_words/
This meetup marks the two-years anniversary of the LW Brussels meetup group. There will be cake. It is all right to eat the cake, as that cake would've grown up to become Hitler. (It is also all right to bring cake.)
We will meet at 1 pm at La Fleur en papier doré, close to the Brussels Central station. The meeting will be in English to facilitate both French and Dutch speaking members.
