@"Banno" I have a proposition for a clean and fair argument. I propose the topic “To what extent do differences in biological gender affect society’s ...

Yes, management.
October 12, 2023 at 00:57
Again, I didn’t say nuclear family. There could be another solution, a new family unit. One issue that causes lots of this hardship is the pressure on...

Humans. Not felt what they needed to do, literally what they needed to do. Like, protect your society through fighting or let yourself, your wife, you...
October 12, 2023 at 00:39
I mean that if a society did not have a military, in that time of raping, pillaging, looting, indiscriminate killing, and fighting for resources to su...
October 12, 2023 at 00:30
So your example is a society in the future that does not exist yet. Wow. Deep. Insightful. Read this article: https://ecorner.stanford.edu/articles/hi...
October 12, 2023 at 00:22
Do you not know what “necessary” means? Rephrase your question.
October 12, 2023 at 00:19
I mean that for that society to exist, a military was necessary, and because the military determined the state’s existence, access to resources, prosp...
October 11, 2023 at 23:58
Sadly, yes that is what I am arguing, that men were necessary for protecting society because of the constant war, rape, looting, killing, conquest. Ob...
October 11, 2023 at 23:51
There are alternative views, but not many alternative realities. Please give me an example of a modern society that exists without any hierarchy whats...
October 11, 2023 at 23:49
Look up “Catholic teaching on Just War Theory”. I am not taking a Catholic stance on this, the necessity of patriarchy in past societies. Even at Cath...
October 11, 2023 at 23:47
Wow dude, great. Seriously, you didn’t offer me any genuine feedback or information. I don’t even have the information to rethink my position because ...
October 11, 2023 at 23:38
It doesn’t need to be the resurrection of the nuclear family, but something needs to be done. There are too many single mothers, struggling their enti...
October 11, 2023 at 23:32
So I see the naturalistic fallacy, saying that if you naturally do something, then it ought to be done. Again, I am arguing that the rise of patriarch...
October 11, 2023 at 23:22
Because I feel that my assertions have not been strongly challenged. For example, on the hierarchies point, is there a modern society that doesn’t hav...
October 11, 2023 at 23:12
Sorry, I am not familiar with the term “OP.” My apologies. Well, you haven’t seriously considered my argument in whole at all. You asserted that hiera...
October 11, 2023 at 22:47
You can’t find even one. Thank you for acknowledging that you attacked my personal ethics in a completely unreasonable manner to change the topic of d...
October 11, 2023 at 22:33
Please, quote me and show me one exclusively ethical claim that I have made, that is not tangential to ethics or only partially ethical.
October 11, 2023 at 22:29
What are you, the Philosophy Forum police? I agree that this is a place that ethics can be openly discussed, but if I personally object, you shouldn’t...
October 11, 2023 at 22:19
This is quite a different discussion. For a discussion like this, I would rather you message me privately. Not that I have some like really extreme vi...
October 11, 2023 at 21:50
Here is a quote from an article, Analysis: How did the patriarchy start - and will evolution get rid of it?, written by Professor Ruth Mace from UCL A...
October 11, 2023 at 21:37
Thank you for the quite well-written response. That is definitely a shortcoming of my argument. Although across the averages, there is evidence for a ...
October 11, 2023 at 17:35
I don’t see any evidence backing this claim. My evidence refutes this, see the Stanford Article: https://ecorner.stanford.edu/articles/hierarchy-is-go...
October 11, 2023 at 13:16
Yes, mainly hunter-gatherer societies, which still held an implicit hierarchical structure among its members. Read the Stanford article. Read the tert...
October 11, 2023 at 12:18
Noooooo!!! Lol. Catholicism as a faith does embrace science quite strongly, and unlike most other faiths. Seriously, Catholicism may hold answers to a...
October 11, 2023 at 03:06
This makes you an agnostic that is not concerned with God (does not care). “I don’t know… I see no good reason to believe.” I hesitate to say “don’t c...
October 11, 2023 at 02:42
Thank you for the response. First, you should make your position clearer. Do you believe that the interpretation of society as a hierarchy of power st...
October 11, 2023 at 02:24
Yes, everything has a cause, and every cause has an effect. That is the basis of the argument, and this was discovered long before this argument was c...
October 11, 2023 at 01:35
So you are agnostic, more or less. There are two types of agnostics: those who don’t know and those who don’t care. I would assume you care somewhat, ...
October 11, 2023 at 01:22
From an academic article referenced in your article: “A broadly parallel picture emerges with regard to gathering and collecting wild foodstuff. There...
October 11, 2023 at 00:39
nice witty quote, I see your point I’ll get back to you on this piece
October 11, 2023 at 00:02
Yes, slap yourself in the face. You will quickly see cause and effect. Seriously, you are questioning logic itself. Article: https://www.opencollege.i...
October 10, 2023 at 23:59
What is one anthropology text I should read?
October 10, 2023 at 23:19
Tell me why. I am here to learn.
October 10, 2023 at 23:07
Back to the topic. Do you have an argument for religion and science being incompatible? What is your stance?
October 10, 2023 at 23:05
Fine Tuning argument - the constants of physics, such as g, k, G, and many more, are so precise that if they were any different the universe would not...
October 10, 2023 at 23:03
again, not a literal interpretation. The meanings are symbolic. They don’t align perfectly with each other. It is a story, God wasn’t literally sittin...
October 10, 2023 at 22:58
Fine Tuning, Cosmic Cause and Effect, etc. It’s a quick Google search
October 10, 2023 at 22:56
Tom, I appreciate the genuine response. I will look at the evidence on this claim and get back to you. I don’t think this debate is useless. The post-...
October 10, 2023 at 22:55
Wow I just wanted genuine feedback. Please, at least entertain my argument. If it is that bad, it should be easy to disprove.
October 10, 2023 at 22:48
I went through these backwards. Thank you for responding. I appreciate it. These responses are not well thought through at all, just keeping track of ...
October 10, 2023 at 22:45
I agree with you on the new habits of media consumption, such as social media, and especially the echo chambers. As much as I want to believe that wha...
October 10, 2023 at 22:21
This quote is from a book called “Biblical Literalism.” I believe that this bishop’s literal interpretation of the “fall from perfection” is inappropr...
October 10, 2023 at 21:24
Anyone saying that Trump voters just hate minorities are ill-informed. Most Americans on either side of the aisle are more same than different. Racist...
