Pfft! And your reasons for this are "most religions say so", and "I excessively watched porn and this made me unhappy"? Wow. @"Michael", your replies ...

This. And this. Actions can be controlled more than desires. A homosexual can act like he has been converted to a heterosexual through conversion ther...

I was looking for a picture or video clip of someone throwing a mic in someone else's face, but I couldn't really find anything. Although I found this...

I don't care so much about the former. That's why I said that I might agree with it more than Agustino's definition. Both are faulty in some respects....

A little premature to verbally ejaculate, dontcha think?

That doesn't make what I said false, which is that it is a common usage. So you don't disagree with what I said, you just disagree with its use. You'v...

Yes, in at least some cases. What are you getting at? Can you cut to the chase? I've made clear that I think that one common meaning of "sex" includes...

I'm not sure what most people mean by those terms, but I know what is commonly meant by those terms, and I've already made what that is clear in previ...

Depends what you mean by "sex" or "virginity". I would've thought that you of all people would agree with that, and not just in relation to sex or its...

I mean that she was right in that sense, but also in the sense that I might agree more with their definition than yours.

>:O Oops! Lol. That was a typo! I meant to say that she was right (as was anyone else who used the word in that way) to say that she was a virgin.

Yes, I am. That's the only sensible take on the issue, in my view. I really couldn't care less about any other approach. I don't share your doubt. Som...

I don't think that I have misunderstood. Even what you consider to be an undeniable fact - that you perceive a table - is debatable, if, for example, ...

Okay. Well, that's that settled then. This is really an argument against any deductive argument, or at least against how they ought to be taken, rathe...

I agree with much of that, and that part about Masters's and Johnson's research is really interesting, because if right, it would mean that a lot of p...

Yes, not sex, because "sex" in that context would just mean penile-vaginal sex or anal sex. Look, this is nothing extraordinary. For a lot of people, ...

Kate Bush. Army Dreamers, Wow, Wuthering Heights, Running Up That Hill, and perhaps my favourite: https://youtu.be/6xckBwPdo1c Also, I'm looking forwa...

Well, in my experience at least, solo masturbation, for example, doesn't get called "sex" in common parlance, and it is commonly understood in contras...

It sounded to me like you were blaming the software, or perhaps by implication its creator, because it doesn't allow you to do what you want to be all...

Okay. I'll let you off just this once. But don't do it again. ;) The idea's not that bad. I was just basically saying don't blame the cat if it doesn'...

:D Virtually everyone is a conservative in at least some respect. I have always tended to be a conservative about the forum. I even joined the establi...

Was the software ever intended to cater to those who want to write a blog? If not, then no. What we have here is a forum, a place to publish articles,...

You can't really win an argument by definition like that, because it isn't really a win. It's trivial, and anyone can do it. An idealist could do the ...

Yes, you've caught me red handed. Well done. (Y) What bad luck. It was almost as though I was trying to be ironic. But that would be so unlike me.

Okay, but that means that there could nevertheless be an extremely good reason for believing that God doesn't exist because evil exists; and that argu...

But herpa derpa Crooked herpa derpa great again. So you're wrong. Derp.

Nonsense. Roli has always been nothing but kind to me. So much so that it could understandably lead one to believe that there's something more to it t...

See here. Do you concede to my criticism of your analogy about the greater good? Yes or no. If no, then why? See here. Do you concede to my criticism ...

It would be the strongest form in the sense that logical necessity is stronger than a possibility supported by evidence. But it is weaker in the sense...

I didn't say that that's what you're proposing. I said that that's what you'd be forced to do for sake of consistency. I didn't think that you'd find ...

Perhaps he is blind, and has convinced himself that he knows what colour is like just like the rest of us. Or perhaps he is a pedant who has missed th...

This is becoming rather tiresome. I'm interested in explanation, not just bald assertion. Can you? I was just using analogous reasoning to your own in...

You can't jump straight into how it is that we perceive a physical world without first establishing that we perceive a physical world. Otherwise you'l...

Dan Eb, Che Lima, Ron Have, Ned Tuinenleght, Yaref War, Stig Auno and Roli Thong. These are your new names.

It's a very common metaphor, so I would be very surprised if you were not already aware of its meaning. It's used in that way to mean "to imagine or v...

I'm guessing he was well aware of that, and that that's why he put scare quotes around the word "see".

A Humean might think that that word you're using, "physical", is meaningless if it is not itself a sense impression or is not derived from any sense i...

Okay, then "physical" is not a simple impression, but a complex one than can be broken down. But "matter" and "energy" aren't like "blue" or "hot". Th...

The influence of Hume is clear to me. You seem to be assuming that "physical" is a simple impression, like "blue", but that is doubtful. I have certai...

Yet, how can you use that as an example of a greater good, for the sake of an analogy, when you extend your moral skepticism to the extent of seriousl...

This is a sure way to tell that you're a leftist, and not a member of the far-right. Otherwise you would have said, "Tea. I don't like blacks".

>:O If they don't want them, I'll take them off their hands. They can live in my basement.

Good, because that's a path which leads directly to screaming and violent riots. And we don't want that to happen.

Don't try to publicly shame him, you leftist scum. >:O

Neither do I, but I do have awful teeth as well as that sardonic quick wit and self-deprecating humour that is stereotypical of us Brits.

But primarily the tea. ;)

You can say, "I was wrong, and I'm sorry. I don't know what I was thinking. We should have never forsaken our motherland, and all because of a quibble...

Runaway together, get married, have children, argue constantly, get divorced, go to court over who gets to keep the children, die bitter and regretful...

Yep, social conservatism is a well known trait of the right. But of course, it's just a trait or characteristic, and there can be, and are, exceptions...

Yes, it's contradictory with that general characterisation, but it's a right-wing viewpoint and tendency nevertheless. It's just that many people on b...
