I personally have no complaints about you. If you feel that my attitude is bad, it must be a translation problem.
November 01, 2025 at 06:09
I regret that this has caused you dissatisfaction; that was never my intention. However, I must protect myself in the course of this exchange. The fac...

As long as you're happy.

I certainly don't argue my point in this way, but I won't explain how I did it here, so you don't need to ask.
November 01, 2025 at 05:19
This argument is clearly invalid.
November 01, 2025 at 05:13
Any discipline that deals with human action is incapable of explaining any single social phenomenon without relying on a meta-teleological postulate. ...

The fundamental purpose, also termed the meta-purpose, is constituted by both the service target of the action and the final state expected to be achi...

All human actions share one and only one fundamental purpose." That is the content of the Axiom of Purpose. Does it surprise you? It might be hard to ...

The Axiom of Purpose itself serves precisely as that factual postulate.
October 31, 2025 at 11:05
Let's clarify the logic: Statement A: 'You cannot skip eating, or you will die.' This is a factual judgment that points to a causal relationship betwe...
October 31, 2025 at 09:18
Within the framework of my postulated axioms, it is acknowledged that humans can perform actions that appearto deviate from the fundamental purpose. H...

Yes, analytical truths are indeed inherently and inevitably entangled with a form of 'circularity' to a significant degree. However, this 'circularity...
October 29, 2025 at 10:00
The conclusions I argue for are, of course, valid only under the premises of my postulated axioms. When the axioms themselves are challenged, the conc...
October 29, 2025 at 06:28
I perceive a fundamental difference in the levels at which we are discussing. You are concerned with the 'fluidity' of specific conditions and technol...

Why are the justified constitutional conclusions immutable? Because conclusions like 'A must not kill,' deduced from given non-contradictory premises,...
October 29, 2025 at 05:20
The institutional argument I refer to begins with the five axioms of action I have postulated. Starting from these axioms, I have systematically deriv...

At present, robots are incapable of autonomously deliberating on constitutional principles. The idea of handing my five postulated axioms to a robot f...

This theory does not require you, as an individual, to choose survival. I also postulate an axiom of cognition, which consists of three parts, one of ...

"Conclusions deduced from non-contradictory premises possess uniqueness; therefore, the fundamental 'standard' is immutable. The example you cited—'we...

"The 'ought' you mentioned, as in 'it ought to rain,' is a prediction. In contrast, the 'must' in a normative conclusion is a requirement for action—a...

1?"My framework, derived from the axioms of action, yields conclusions pertaining to only four domains, which correspond to the four constituent eleme...
October 29, 2025 at 03:25
The reason I used the example of "thou shalt not kill" is that I have logically derived this conclusion from the fundamental purpose (and I could have...
October 29, 2025 at 03:05
This theory does not require you, as an individual, to care about your own flourishing. The conclusions it derives exist as social norms, whose codifi...

The requirements imposed by an individual's specific purposes on their specific actions do not constitute the behavioral norms for the entire society....
October 29, 2025 at 02:52
In my argument, I begin by postulating five axioms of action, one of which is the Axiom of Purpose. This axiom explains the root of behavioral motivat...

I don't know why you think the budget will be so large, because it contains the logic of suppressing the budget. For example, if I am promoted to coun...
