Fatwa forbids Muslims from traveling to Mars

[zerozero]

Nothing.​

You have only ONE life to live. I prefer not to live mine in fear or let other's fears rule my life.​

The issue is that you're combining your preferred action based result ("I'm not afraid from doing X") with the actual ethics of the matter, which is nearly an entirely different matter. For example, whether you're afraid of attacking an enemy in war or not is only one part of the examination of the situation of you attacking an opponent. Similarly, whether you're "afraid of going to mars" or not is not examining the whole mission in question here. Man, your average college undergrad psych experiment needs ethics approval, meanwhile many posters here can't see any extraordinary questions about a never-undertaken one way trip to another planet compared to crossing a street. This reveals not my "fear", but rather the glancing superficiality with which our fellow posters are thinking about the matter at hand.

I basically came in to say this..

Ever since they first announced it I discussed the Mars zone project with my friends. On one hand I was excited because the news felt like a huge step in our technological advancement as a species.

Ethically however I was disgusted by it, the pure thought of sending voluntary civilians on a one way trip to mars and make a reality show of it all. The FVKK?!

It could be that if we were allowed to freely travel the universe that we could travel and travel and travel and eventually reach where God Almighty resides.

MORMONS KIND OF BELIEVE THIS, BROTHER!

Wow.

So you ask me a question and I respond. I ask you a question and I get "wow"

Yea they believe they will be gods of their own planets if Im not mistaken?

The issue is

You either want to do it despite the risks, or you don't.

If I were asked to volunteer, I'd probably say no.

You don't have to give justifications for doing it or not.

All I know is I won't allow someone else to make decisions like that for me.

I see religion is trying to impede the progress of science again. I wonder how they would feel if a jew was sent there first.

Yea I agree. I just dont believe we were made to travel to those planets and outerspace in general considering the difficulty of doing so.

don't travel on interstates, cruiseships, trains, or airplanes then breh

good thing high speed internet was created with so little difficulty or else you'd have to confine your funny little profundities to your own house (why don't you live in a tent?)

You're probably right since all those things in one way or another destroy the earth. Or that doesnt matter?

Try harder at being funny breh.

And the things you're comparing to travel in outer space?
