Why should they care in first place?? Is it immoral if they don't?? For me not at all. As long as they do their job properly and try to be good at it,...

Logic is the main task for human mind. For me it's the most significant a priori function of humans. So if we ever be able to find the ultimate truth ...

Cause challenging our views and beliefs requires to challenge our own selves. To face ourselves. And, oh boy, that's a hell of a fight that not many a...

Though I m really flattered by your comment. Please don't. It's true that Nietzsche is one of my favorites (not to say the most one), but I m far from...

I think each case is different. We can't make a rule out of that. In some cases philosophy might work better, in other cases psychology. It depends fr...

No he isn't just another one idealist. For me he is the Greatest one! He was believing so much in personal growth but his "method" included intense, h...

You have written it again in another thread and I strongly disagree that Nietzsche was thinking like that. The way you describe it, is like Nietzsche ...

Yeah sound similar indeed. But again it's only our own 2 more definitions among others.

I think Will has a very wide range of definitions and it is hard to say that one is the right one or to choose the most appropriate. It would be too r...

Isn't it? It's just the best way for humanity to create proofs.Best way to "verify" its reality. Well not to say the only one which can be so accurate...

Doesn't that say something? Universities seem to care more as to create useful workers for the markets and less to create useful people for the societ...

So for you everything works fine then and it doesn't need any change? Or that it will stop happening some day soon? I m not sure I got where you stand...

And it will go on failing.

Cause as in everything the root is the Ego! Academics(not all of course) snob the common people. Thinking themselves too intellectual to deal with com...

Scrolling down and thinking "wtf! where is the definition question?!" ... Few posts later..... Tim Wood saves the day.

Equality means that every single human life values exactly the same. If I was an alien visiting Earth I wouldn't give a fuck for more or less clever p...

So the answer to all these for you is no bringing kids in life? Anyway we have discussed about antinatalism already at another thread and we agreed th...

So it would be more appropriate to say that "people always Try to act in their own interest". The thing is that it's really tough to understand what o...

Not that I agree with anything Nietzsche wrote. But I m not sure he supported that. He was extremely valuing the individual person and his capability ...

I m not sure I got exactly the meaning of unitary self here. You mean he didn't believe that there is a real "self" in humans or that people can't act...

That's Ego. And yes it is true imo. Since human nature is defined from Death, that's inevitable and totally acceptable for me. Of course there are peo...

So again your point is antinatalism. You just choose different routes every time as to end up to the same conclusion. I find forced work also wrong.At...

Well no. Not really.

So we are going back to the Antinatalist thread. You seem to have an obsession with that issue, since I have noticed every thread you open has its roo...

You see any other alternative?

Ok that's better. Well yes then, imo, at the very end forced work is wrong indeed. And that's why I think that some day that will change. Cause it is ...

Exactly. How is that?

I m not sure I got what's your actual question. Why anti work to be wrong in first place? Someone believes that having to work for his entire life is ...

Our statements are always being judged by their truth. And when we say truth, we obviously mean "human truth". Which is by nature - definition limited...

I don't think that religions focus on free will. They focus on God's will instead. Providing a "moral map" that people should follow. My view is that ...

The "proud" part don't see it that often at all out there.

Yeah there must be cases like that for sure. I can't deny that. But at the end as in everything else that is accused of "corrupting" and "brainwashing...

For me that is an excuse. "God's work" as to satisfy their evil instincts but at the same time to justify themselves and not take any blame at all! Hi...

Exactly.

People could be brainwashed from many other causes too. Yes religion is one of them. But as I mentioned again if we want to attribute evil to religion...

I so agree on that. For me, they are both working together as a continuous effort of ethical transformation. Like opposite forces which at the end wor...

Yes it is too much indeed. And that's why you can never have a fruitful discussion with a fanatic (both sides fanatic, theists or atheists). If a reli...

Religion has a role both in evil and good of course. And if you want to attribute evil in religions you have to attribute good also. If we wanna be fa...

Well I don't agree with Mr. Steven on that at all. Being good or evil is a mater of personal choice at the end. And nothing else. If people use as an ...

Exactly. And unfortunately it's what humanity still needs. What "works" better, for most people at least. Or else people wouldn't maintain so passiona...

And yet at my thread "what can replace God?" you were doubting that most people even nowadays get their morals from religions. Well I struggled to pas...

Exactly. True. I agree. But is it the only field that you see hypocrisy all over around us? And more specific hypocrisy used as to remain in power? I ...

The problem is that Christianity is presented here as to have a "privilege" in intolerance compared to other religions. Or that its teaching is worse ...

You don't see it but it's still there. Told you already, it's obvious that your mind is locked there. So nothing useful to discuss about here. You fai...

Your views are misrepresented on their own. Don't worry. I didn't change anything. Nothing to add further.

Your position is false from its very on foundation. I explained you why. So either you don't see it or you pretend that you don't see it cause it will...

To refer like you do, the specific historical documents that you pick only those who fit your position?That's ridiculous. Even the obvious fact with E...

Wrote it. I don't agree at all with many things that he said and find them impossible to happen. Against human nature in fact.

Sorry I m not interested in communist conversations at all anymore. Made it many times at the past. And now I find them endless and at that field most...

I don't agree but anyway that it's a huge different discussion.And not for that thread. No it isn't the same at all. And apparently you didn't get my ...
