Goodness gracious! :sweat:

This is all subsumed as informational Vera. The aim of reason is to use information as a tool (completing a goal). The objective value of life can not...
August 06, 2023 at 00:43
Fair enough! Therefore, your empathy is entirely reason-based and transactional. If there were no interdependence of life then you would see no basis ...
August 05, 2023 at 12:51
Ah, I see, this makes sense. Animals play an integral role in the shaping of their immediate environment and thus become an indispensable part of the ...
August 04, 2023 at 20:38
Very interesting as this could be used to scapegoat the responsibility! This comes across as a conflict of culture and ethics. Ethically speaking (you...

Not bad :strong:
August 02, 2023 at 20:48
What about the fact that consciousness is dependent upon the physical brain? Or are you merely brainstorming? :wink:
August 02, 2023 at 00:26
I have been waiting my entire life for a simple tool like chatgpt...my entire life. Hi Bob Ross, you cannot apply "double negation" in such a way to t...

I think it might be the case that experience is special.

Modus tollens: 1. If P, then Q. 2. Not Q. Therefore, not P.

Humans are not the only consciousness and we have to respect AI consciousness as well. But there needs to be some sort of security; surprising the gov...

Randomness does not exist. Some possibilities are merely impossible.
July 25, 2023 at 19:36
There is absolute knowledge.
July 24, 2023 at 23:21
Are you implying here that we create time?
July 16, 2023 at 16:54
Yea, but if there is a limitless power then we are already part of it.
July 10, 2023 at 13:47
Lol, an objective basis for morality?
July 10, 2023 at 13:34
Does life have any intrinsic value which extends beyond its own experience?
April 19, 2023 at 21:14
Lol, okay I mean, there is nothing wrong with disagreement, I am glad that you have your own opinions sir. Lol, just so you know the word "honest" is ...
May 24, 2022 at 11:34
Good, so you agree with everyone :up: Only a record of what exists now? Ahh, yes you are finally learning. Welcome to reality. Good job buddy :)
May 24, 2022 at 00:17
This is a juvenile argument. No one is denying that the present is what exists. The issue is that you keep saying there is no past. Stop talking about...
May 23, 2022 at 07:20
I suppose your teacher is trying to make an important point. Of course this will all be conjecture since I do not know the context in which your teach...
May 21, 2022 at 09:14
Hmm, well in order to do anything even move your arm for instance, right beforehand your brain will release a tiny amount of dopamine in order to init...
May 21, 2022 at 07:18
I think the issue is that most atheists see life as a punishment, therefore unless we can discover what our crimes were, it is logically more feasible...
May 20, 2022 at 14:09
But then we would have to ask, do you see life as a gift or as a punishment? If punishment, what on earth did we do wrong?
May 20, 2022 at 14:05
Thank you sir, but it is beyond the proof...the issue is that it may be that God is punishing us. :scream:
May 20, 2022 at 14:04
When I figure that one out, I shall let you know. :) Probably the hardest question in the world.
May 20, 2022 at 13:59
Another thing is that maybe God does not want to be proven. :)
May 20, 2022 at 13:50
Correct. :up:
May 20, 2022 at 13:34
You are brilliant! Did they say something that I missed? I saw the video of Hawking saying that the universe is eternal and nothing is surrounding it?...
May 20, 2022 at 13:32
Thanks Hillary, but you know it's all due to the glory of Chance. Thank Chance that I was able to come up with that incredible logic. Were it not for ...
May 20, 2022 at 13:19
:rofl: :rofl: Can you tell how inspired I am? I am reverberating deep, and profound insight!
May 20, 2022 at 12:38
Let's try to give 180 the credit he deserves... Reason created the world? Nope, does not make sense. Chance created the world? Nope, does not make sen...

me(Me) wasted your (time) but time is divine, therefore I am not worthy of (worship) (DIVINE). (Divine, worship) time)). Sorry that probably makes mor...
May 20, 2022 at 10:58
Shhhh, gender differences don't exist. :snicker: Bro do you ever try to talk to women about philosophy? Just be happy that at least there are "people"...
May 20, 2022 at 03:00
Let's just start with that kindergarten logic you're using... Literally just a begging of the question...and are you making "reason" objective? Like s...
May 20, 2022 at 02:46
It's their job to try and discover a material consciousness, hopefully they do because that would be super cool, alas, it will probably never happen h...
May 20, 2022 at 02:13
:snicker: Is that the best you got buddy?
May 20, 2022 at 02:05
Scientific information is important but at a certain point that information ends and you will be required to philosophize without experimentation. If ...
May 20, 2022 at 01:59
There are absolute truths that help to explain existence itself. Without these truths we would not be here.
May 20, 2022 at 01:50
The smartest philosophers are probably in academia because usually very smart people want to get an education. But if you did want to find a very smar...
May 20, 2022 at 01:47
If you disagree, then point us to the material of the mind? :snicker:
May 11, 2022 at 09:48
:snicker: Hope they discover something interesting!
May 10, 2022 at 16:14
What are you talking about, every woman alive today was made from a man. That's the most fallacious argument I have ever seen. Not to mention you say ...
May 10, 2022 at 12:46
I think you're pettifogging a bit here, I was just saying that money is not real. Whereas you speak about God, to whom many people do think is quite r...
May 10, 2022 at 12:17
I always feel that God exists to believers and does not exist to atheists. I do not hold that God must exist to atheists, for example. I saw where you...
May 10, 2022 at 00:15
Yea, why not? If that's what God wants to do.
April 29, 2022 at 15:52
That's an accusation. :rage:
April 28, 2022 at 03:20
:snicker: Have you ever taken a basic ethics course? Lol. https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/0199285306.001.0001/acprof-978019...
