Whatever isn't too stimulating for the admins and sexually or, seemingly, politically repressed people on this board
March 29, 2022 at 14:36
Yeah I agree. Validity is just falling from axioms to a derivation but it's all we can meaningfully check anyways.
March 29, 2022 at 14:24
These are very normal questions in normative philosophy of sex and was just a few examples to get people in grasp with it. It may have been a little t...
March 29, 2022 at 14:22
From the iep. This is just meant to start a conversation and gather different manners to speak about philosophy of sex.
March 29, 2022 at 14:19
I mean sociology of sex falls out of philosophy of sex but, while using different sociological conceptions as case examples, we're using philosophical...

I also wanted to mention that the benefits of monarchical sex may seem less obvious to us now, especially given all the republican (anti monarchical) ...

It's the first principles of reality which makes a structure. You have a metaphysical structure, like foundationalism, coherentism, infinitism, monism...
March 29, 2022 at 13:04
We know force = mass * acc and it's valid necessarily and therefore never changes. Whether it's sufficient enough for everything that goes on is tange...
March 29, 2022 at 04:56
I mean nurture vs nature showed neither position was sufficient for description of human life. If it was nature then society would never meaningfully ...
March 29, 2022 at 03:25
I was under the assumption the big bang was but I read it was developed by a priest and roundly rejected because it seemed too theistic lol. I persona...

How would you describe evolution then without cause?
March 29, 2022 at 01:49
Sure natural selection's a cause. The question is "what cause dictates biological object x to become biological object y". People can erroneously assu...
March 29, 2022 at 01:37
I think a biological historicism or directive would be insufficient to dictate the phases in our life.
March 29, 2022 at 01:20
I'm not sure what science's lack of use of cause has to do with the situation. Evolution is still a theory as it has no causation narrative that is su...
March 29, 2022 at 01:18
It wouldn't make sense with christianity as the early covenants instantiated our right to be protected, over animals etc, was being made in the image ...
March 28, 2022 at 20:54
Yeah I'm not sure what causes or how to account for kinetic energy to be honest. I gave a quick once-through about what the traits in quantum mechanic...
March 28, 2022 at 20:51
I think contemporary physics assumes energy and matter are what fundamentally cause things. In biology they assume some conception of life. I think cu...
March 28, 2022 at 20:05
Whatever you said, context and tone matters and you've been nothing but abrasive and throwing in that accusation is not charitable and looks bigotous....
March 28, 2022 at 19:49
I did not lie about anything as there was nothing to lie about. I'm not an apologist for Islam but it doesn't matter if I am. If you could stop your b...
March 28, 2022 at 18:40
I've heard people try to say "if my arm was an inch away it would be possible" and it seems trivial but that entails different physical principles whi...
March 28, 2022 at 15:56
I think there would have to be proof that separates some fundamental laws from their derivatives for contingentarianism to work. We can only meaningfu...
March 28, 2022 at 15:49
I'll have nobody uninteresting to converse with in 2/3 months hopefully.
March 28, 2022 at 09:22
I've never heard anyone reduce God down to art or science and I could pick up the psychological vibes. Whatever your experiences are with religion, yo...
March 28, 2022 at 01:39
No, religion isn't art nor is it science by anyone's account that I'm aware of. There've been a few threads recently that asked the same question and ...
March 28, 2022 at 01:22
I'm not interested in conversing with you.
March 27, 2022 at 23:14
I agree with that too. I'm a christian
March 27, 2022 at 21:11
To be honest I engaged pretty fruitfully and you haven't really given any concern to anything besides throwing rebuttals everywhere without addressing...
March 27, 2022 at 21:10
I personally would re-apply the criticism of "lacktheism" in "rocks being atheist" to any negation definition and say atheism isn't an actual position...
March 27, 2022 at 17:41
Yeah it does look interesting. I would say a history of quakers in general and in America would show a lot more abolitionism. The abolitionist positio...
March 27, 2022 at 16:57
I really don't want to divert from this thread's topic.
March 27, 2022 at 16:48
They can be reconciled by accepting them in an asymmetric relationship fundamentally or disjoint where they may be particularly
March 27, 2022 at 16:33
Christians sin, that's biblical but nobody else had a means to ground an end to slavery. Individualism exacerbated the issue. We actually see states b...
March 27, 2022 at 16:30
We're so bad that we started the abolitionist movement in the west which ended with the abolition of slaves. Nobody else did.
March 27, 2022 at 16:09
I feel like you've completely ignored what I wrote because I already mentioned Leviticus 21 and you haven't seemed to respond to anything I said just ...
March 27, 2022 at 16:07
Who cares if I am an Islam apologist? It was not common at all, it may have never happened, the phenomenon of selling yourself into slavery if you're ...
March 27, 2022 at 15:49
It's enjoyable for me as well. I think logical validity requires truth preservation but soundness is whether the object exists in reality to give trut...
March 27, 2022 at 14:44
I would agree with your last sentiment. An assertion is evidence but evidence with really low explanatory power and so shouldn't be used. I would say ...
March 27, 2022 at 14:29
It wasn't really an appeal to authority any more than me citing SEP was. He's an expert in the field if it wasn't obvious from the content of the arti...
March 27, 2022 at 14:03
I think it's a pretty standard basis that any rejection of a major position in a field requires a standard in which it can be rejected. Classical mech...
March 27, 2022 at 13:51
I wanted to add to the car key point, that implication logic only holds based on what the succeedent's truth value is. A > B T T T T F F F T T F T F S...
March 27, 2022 at 13:37
I would say everything you do is a belief and that everything you assert requires knowledge so I would say any epistemological category is derivative ...
March 27, 2022 at 13:32
If I'm confusing it then so is academic atheism. A "belief" in anything is taken as granted and unanalyzable (how would anyone check?). The contents o...
March 27, 2022 at 13:14
It's just re-establishing the nature of the proposition. A psychological state is just saying "one believes God exists" etc. There's no truth aptness ...
March 27, 2022 at 13:02
Also, of note, it seems they didn't tackle the inherent issue of defining the negation of a proposition as a proposition (as found in the "rock is an ...
March 27, 2022 at 11:37
It says you can but don't enslave your Israeli brethren and then the verse after it says you can sell yourself into slavery if you're poor but other I...
March 27, 2022 at 10:47
The old testament in exodus details what slavery is. One fact is you could sell yourself into slavery (leviticus 25:35/39) and the word used for slave...
March 27, 2022 at 03:43
Yeah I think anything continental covers that analytic can or does but not vice versa.
March 26, 2022 at 14:46
You're not entitled to harass me when I asked you to stop replying to me. I get emails specifically saying you replied. Please desist.
March 26, 2022 at 05:53
Please stop replying to me.
March 26, 2022 at 05:43
I have no interest in conversing with you.
