Is the morality of creating an entity the same as that which is common to
society when a child is 'created'?
Does the practitioner have a moral responsibility for the entity (as a
'parent')?
Does the practitioner have a moral responsibility for the actions of hir
creation? For how long?
Is the morality of 'binding' an entity to task (whether with or without
that entity's consent and whether or not the 'binding' is for a specific
length of time or for ever) the same as that which is incurred (if any) for
the creation of an entity?
