I haven't studied his theology. I'm not a transcendentalist but I imagine it's unique. Yeah kierk threw me off because he seems way more protestant th...

Yes but it's rousseau's general will which underlines romanticism and the wars like naziism, marxism etc

I've never heard of Kant's philosophy of religion, do you know why it didn't have as much of an impact as Hegel's did? How does kierk fit in there?

You don't have any interest in being charitable and not being disingenuous so I have no interest in talking to you.

If you have no interest in talking about it then don't message me. There's absolutely no reason to be disingenuous and uncharitable.

It's here Truth is literally rooted in the word true. Edit: one needs a definition of true to parse truth or belief.

I already provided the definitions here of belief, true and truth all from google and defined a relationship narrative which would exclude equivalency...

The only way to parse the word belief is by a definition of truth. The only distinction between truth and belief is "acceptance of" which, being epist...

Truth has a root in true. The caveat would be interesting to see if we need belief to accept truth which are arguments I've had thrown at me where it ...

They're not equivalent in my estimation but asymmetric. Meaning one entails the other but the other does not entail the one. I would just use the defi...

That sounds childish. Dualisms have issues and I don't know a dualism which posits end game vs beginning game and nothing formally is derived from tha...

I mean it's your thread and what you said and it's on-topic so I don't really see how that's an out-of-the-ordinary question for someone to ask. It's ...

If there's nothing prior then how can you justify the state of living as negative?

So you would classify living as limiting then?

What are y'all's views on how to best review? Do y'all think debating an issue helps y'all work through it better? I understand in a classroom it's no...

I think it depends on your metaphysical structure etc. So for me, I always look for the larger narratives which underlie the issue (how the enlightenm...

I don't personally see the nature of consciousness being emergent. If it's meant to be that the material brain makes consciousness emergent then I've ...

Sure but causation usually necessitates strong emergence imo, wdyt?

So it says objects have no intrinsic traits just relational ones? So a carbon atom isn't a carbon atom per se but the rearrangement of protons, neutro...

Completely unfamiliar, if you need me to do some light reading I can.

Transcendentalists were around from the late 1820's - 1830's per the wikipedia which was after the second great revival started. The christian aboliti...

Sure so the "logical configurations of energy" reminds me of statistical mechanics and the argument that temperature emerges from an individual state ...

If anyone is an atheist and is against slavery then you need to find another a priori argument/justification against slavery besides we are all create...

Because that's a valid expression of self-evident truths. Another example that's unrelated are analytic truths like "all bachelors are unmarried men"....

Enough to free anybody and you're conflating general will with natural rights here. Self-evident means prior to man or men like a priori. The distinct...

And yet they weren't enough. Anyways self-evident truths requires not a general will but something prior to the established polity be it nature or God...

What reckoning did mlk speak about? He used christianity as a basis where malcolm x used politics and divisiveness hidden in Islam (because you need a...

I see the split but I was wondering where other sources came from. Transcendentalism came several decades after the heat of the abolitionist movement ...

Because the abolition movement started with the christians. The enlightenment ideals freed literally nobody by the adoption of the constitution. The d...

That doesn't seem to square with what actually happened though. The industrial revolution happened later and exacerbated both sides. What language you...

It seems there was a divide but I see a lot of political qualifications and less theological ones. In any case christians can be wrong but I don't see...

I've only seen southern baptists split from baptists. Right now they're a big congregation but baptists were a major congregation then even in the nor...

Your goal is to argue from a basic premise to a conclusion where "1." randomly states what should be the penultimate point but then discards it. If yo...

I missed the universal quantifier at the beginning. I think it's better written with an existential quantifier to be an actual "or". Edit: you postula...

The "or" logical connective is meant to make sure that only one condition has to be met for anything. It's to prevent infinite regression. Whether it'...

There's overlap but the first asserts a causation chain and the second asserts an un-caused foundation.

Validity can't at all be tackled by datasets or not in a meaningful manner. A lot of data we have is noise and the data is still just past actions of ...

Evil doesn't exist until you can show an object "evil" and then show causation of "evil" to other objects in reality. Actions are too general and can ...

This except I say everything that is good is just what God created or is existence (through God). There are then degrees of good as we get closer to t...

I like the idea of living papers and I think a lot of shake-ups will be necessary for that to work and I think it would be best to have a sorta arxiv ...

I'm not interested in conversing with you.

I'd rather not converse with you.

Nietzsche ended his life trapped in a sanitarium. I doubt there's much information to take from him. Morals make you a better more assertive and effec...

I think it's more fair to include all religions we've had (and maybe all possible ones). The major religions are around because their truth order is r...

Interesting, I assume belief is derived from truth or oughts are derived from personal is's (as they're just personal propositional statements). Which...

I'm just saying assuming the relationship is justified (that zeus created lightening), changing zeus to be of the mind but not changing lightening to ...

What do you mean by repercussions?

I wasn't supposing mystical. I was trying to see if there was anyway we could find it to be causative of material things or even universal things like...

I see. I'm trying to find some way to understand if it's possible and the only metaphysics I know which may be able to is idealism but I'm not sure ho...
