David Benatar
Philosopher, Professor & Author
David Benatar is a South African philosopher, academic and author. He is best known for his advocacy of antinatalism in his book "Better Never to Have Been: The Harm of Coming into Existence", in which he argues that coming into existence is a serious harm, regardless of the feelings of the existing being once brought into existence, and that, as a consequence, it is always morally wrong to create more sentient beings.
