It's hard to get my finger on the pulse. There's a guy at work here who's sure that there was fraud, despite there being no evidence of it. When the R...

But isn't it always a matter of degree of responsibility that the citizens have for their leader's actions as opposed to offering the citizens full ab...
There seems to be what I'll call a "combatant's exception," where we allow some degree of excuse (or at least we mitigate our evaluation of the severi...
A hero needn't be perfect. I'm not looking for a messiah, just someone to free the innocent who have been damned to torture, abuse, and death. I wasn'...
You will always annoy me with your return to this argument, which, at least to my ears, asserts some sort of moral equivalence between the axis and al...
I can agree with part of this. There is sometimes confusion contextualizing other people's problems and in some areas there is moral ambiguity. There ...

The Trump speech about having the election stolen from him was truly disgusting. It was a reckless attempt to incite his base to interfere with a fair...
Violence has been more a characteristic of leftist groups. This is all part of a divisive narrative that vilifies the opposition. Trump declares witho...

You can't force a prosecutor to prosecute. They are elected officials, so the pressure you can exert upon them can only be political. Not only can you...
Weighing in on this as a poster, and not as a mod, I'm curious as to what is the philosophical import of NDEs and what question you're attempting to a...
