    A little nervous sharing since last time I posted some personal writing on here I got flamed to the front page, hopefully I don't offend anyone this time :)

    I will try to keep it civil since you seem to be sincere. I have got to say I strongly disagree with your perspectives. The goal should not be creating more lives, it should be improving those that are already here. It's truly brave of you to put your heart on display like this, and I wish you the best of luck.

      Thanks I appreciate the kind response! The fun and nerve wracking thing about posting on hackernews - I get takes I never would have expected lol

      I'm surprised you took away from this that I think the goal should be making more humans because that's not what I believe and not what was I was trying to communicate. I don't think there is one "goal" to life and this article was in now way about goals but I'm glad you have such a sense of purpose for your life! I wish you well in that too!

      Just because you mention it though - its a false dichotomy that creating more lives is at odds with improving the lives of the current existing people.
