No idea who this person is... but it doesn't actually answer the question - I think we were after examples where rationality causes people to disregard human rights, not just an example of a person who may have rationalised something to themselves.
Also - don't forget that rationalisation != rationality. There are a lot of posts on this site about that very misunderstanding.
Sorry I don't understand what you mean by that sentence. Perhaps you could explain?
AFAICS the people on this blog argue quite strongly that life is very important and that we should try very hard to improve and prolong human life.
Unfortunately, they're very hard to tell them apart when you're doing them.
Amen to that :)
