No worries! This is what I was trying to get you to see, because all you are doing is begging the question with: Firstly, as I noted to you in a DM, I...

I agree that innocent people can be justifiably killed; but only when it is indirectly intentional (in some cases). You are (directly) intending to ki...

@"Banno", this the kinds of baseless hate I get on here: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/1021010. Now RogueAI, instead of dealing wi...

My response was using a leeway conception of freedom. What unnatural usages of hands? Can you give an example? Wings aren’t just for flying: they can ...

Agents can do things that go against their nature. This is an age-old liberal point that is false. Just because animals have the agency to go against ...

Probably not. There's no marriage in heaven, so I would presume there's no genders.

I appreciate that, and I do not hate you either. It seems like you are conceding you have name-called but that you are engaging with the discussion si...

With all due respect, my friend, I think you are not appreciating what I am saying: I already addressed and anticipated this rejoinder. Even if the co...

Homosexuality is defective: it can be defective biologically and/or socio-psychologically. Heterosexuality is defective sometimes socio-psychologicall...

Even if it really is degenerate? This is the basic, colloquial definition of bigotry: “obstinate or unreasonable attachment to a belief, opinion, or f...

I believe we did discuss this before too: allowing evil may be evil but is not necessarily evil. E.g., if I can only save a person from getting murder...

I agree with everything said here; but it doesn’t address my point. I am not trying to convey that we should have a superiority complex, posture, or g...

That's utterly irrelevant to what I was saying. I was arguing that inserting a penis in an anus violates the natural ends of both organs.

Is it? Well, that’s a problem. I understand why someone would conclude that they could cut the cord...otherwise I couldn’t really say that I am right ...

To clarify, are you answering “no” to my question?!? You really don’t believe that a penis is not designed to be inserted into an anus? I get that ‘de...

@"Banno", I try my best to avoid making serious accusations against my opponents and I want to be as charitable to them as possible, but given the sta...

I apologize: I thought Jamal said you did—I must have misunderstood. Ok, but this goes back to my main point: it is saddening that you are so anti-fre...

This is an important distinction, but my rejoinder would be essentially the same. I don’t think you are writing bigotry by opposing stereotypical cons...

What part of my definitions were not clear? On the contrary, it accounts for the behavioral aspect of gender by noting that it is the upshot one’s nat...

I am glad to hear that, believe it or not (: Next time, please tag me in the post so I get a notification. I just happen to see this post and otherwis...

You are right: I am claiming that maleness and femaleness are a part of the real nature of men and woman; and this is different than the modern metaph...

You didn't even try to answer the question, because you know I am right that the sex organs are not designed to be put in the anus (irregardless if yo...

Yes. You are suggesting that if the negative consequences of doing the right thing are too great, then we shouldn't do it. If I could only save myself...

You are splitting hairs here. Everyone knows that liberalism as a popular movement in america has agendas just like conservatives do.

:up:

That’s fair, but modern fourth-wave feminism tends to support transwomen. Traditional women that are of the earlier type of feminism are the one’s ins...

No. Evil is the privation of good; and other persons in the creation could be responsible for its introduction. It matters because God then would be d...

That’s fine, but I don’t think that is how gender theory nor my theory uses the terms. There is. Women tend towards things that are feminine. You are ...

Banno, if you were paying attention, you would know I have noted many times in this thread that someone could make a virtual but not real distinction ...

The difference between us, I would suggest, is that I don’t think you are a bigot for thinking there is a difference between gender or sex; or even ho...

:up: I don't know why @"Banno" never wants to engage. :confused:

Maleness and masculinity aren't the same and I never suggested otherwise: they are conceptually distinct. Gender and sex, under my view, are not. Bein...

Yes I have: what’s your point? Not necessarily; but I am not interested in defending gender theory. My position was against gender theory; and your ro...

The fact you will never engage with me on any topic and continue to gate-keep, superficially name-drop, and posture makes me believe, if I am being ho...

Instead of making baseless accusations, I would challenge you to actually contend with the points I made. It is uncontroversially true in America that...

Fair enough!

In my view the substantial form of the body, the soul, is what accounts for the nature of a human....

True, but this is the underlying reason why they support some of the agendas I gave: you are just supporting my claims here. I understand some of my l...

Lmao. You always do this: you posture without actually engaging with me. If you think there is some metaphysical theory out there that is better than ...

Yes: this fits their liberal agenda of providing people with maximal choices to choose from and autonomy: the selling point of liberalism is that ethi...

:up:

As a side note, I commend and congratulate you on having a kid (or kids): having kids is a wonderful and challenging thing. Your argument is not valid...

The old testament is an attempt at giving a narration of what they believed was Divine Revelation by God (even if it wasn’t); and recording lineages w...

Interesting. I just don't understand how that ontologically would work; other than if there is some atemporal connection we have to each other.

The fact that you called it feminine concedes that you do think gender is tied to biology….

Liberalism in America tends to want the social and legal acceptance of: 1. Sexually deviant, homosexual, and transgender behaviors and practices; 2. T...

I appreciate your response! I think, and correct me if I am misunderstanding, you are viewing gender and sex as distinct; whereas my model here admits...

This is fitting, as I am a merely a feeble peasant...

To a certain extent I could see that when it comes to the more loosely associated aspects of gender to sex (like hair style); but a lot of it seems to...
