Bottling the Sun
I'm thinking that What people might not realize really is that Suns and Planets are alive to begin with. So, if you create an artificial sun or suns here on earth in the form of nuclear fusion what are you really doing? I suppose it would be like building a robot to become your wife or husband instead of marrying a real person I think. So, on one level you are trying to make life here on earth better but on another level what morally are you doing?
So, even though I see the scientific justification of trying to make energy free and non-polluting so the human race doesn't go extinct but on another level it becomes a moral issue of "What are you doing?"
It to me is the same issue of "How can you be anti-Abortion and still eat meat and who is going to raise the children you prevent the abortions regarding?"
These are all real questions too that many people have around the world.
Though scientific answers might be interesting or even entertaining the questions need also to be asked:
"What are we doing?"
"What do we value in life?"
It's just like a lot of things when you have to look at them more deeply. Everyone wants money and food and a place to live and clothes but what if everyone doing this just makes 8 billion people go extinct this century? (as well as all the other life forms on earth that are wild or pets too).
What are we doing as a human race?
