“Every tear teaches mortals a truth. “-Platon-
In recent decades the idea that truth is a relative concept has prevailed, although this is true (truth is related to a number of factors), it is also true that there are still absolute truths, indisputable facts that show us that the Fact that truth is relative is also relative. Here we cite three absolute truths.
It is one of those truths that have accompanied us since the dawn of time and that, despite all the technological advances, and with all the religious explanations, we cannot dispute. It is an absolutely true fact: we will all die. You, me and all the people we love, the people we see walking the streets or watching television.
Religious can argue that after this earthly life there is another eternal life, or that we will be reincarnation like another and that life is therefore eternal, but the only certainty we have is that this life will end and we will not. know what’s going to happen next. The certainty that this body and that person we are will one day die is indisputable.
One of the absolute truths we must always keep in mind is that we will all die. The last chapter of our history is death. If we were more aware of this, perhaps we could realize that every day of existence is invaluable, because it is also one less day of life.
Regardless of the sexual orientation you have, and without entering into the debate that there may be families with same-sex parents, the truth is that for human life to be there is a need for the union of the egg and sperm. and male sex cells.
A new life can be projected in a laboratory, in the mother’s uterus or in a ‘substitute belly’, however, it will be necessary to join a woman and a male gamete in order to generate a new human being.
It can be said that cloning is also a form of reproduction, and there are rumors that it is already in use, the truth is that, in the unlikely event that this is true, what occurs with cloning is not a new being in the world. strict sense, but a copy of a being that already exists.
All humans are generated in the woman’s womb, even with all scientific advances that has not changed, at least so far, in vitro fertilization is just that: fertilization, however, the product of this fertilization must be implanted in women. uterus to develop a new human being.
Despite all the discrimination that women have experienced over the years, we all owe them an early start, no man can conceive and give birth, and so far it is not possible for this process to occur in an artificial uterus.
Obviously, these three absolute truths touch the essence of human existence, we will all die, we are all born of the union between a man and a woman, and we are all born as a woman, they speak of the most important moments of life: the beginning and the end. The conclusions that each will draw from these truths are quite personal, but they are there, to reflect and draw our conclusions.
