Can you elaborate?

How is evolution separate from physique? Evolution happens in the body, the source of them all.
October 08, 2025 at 11:50
At the most basic level, codes don’t break the rules of physics — they emerge from them. Every “code” is just a structured pattern of energy inside a ...

I actually can't. Help in pointing out? Well, our sapience is a tangible proof of our excellence above the rest of the earthly creatures.
October 08, 2025 at 08:53
Can you ask in simpler terms exactly what your objection was?
October 08, 2025 at 08:43
I don't see what that has to do here. We're still at the top of the animal kingdom, just as we were at the dawn of civilization when we learned to lig...
October 08, 2025 at 08:40
There lies the true excellence of humankind. And solving those problems and coming up with a principial solution is the price you pay for the privileg...

he'll be in a paradox. The same as this one. Because as a deontologist, he cannot put 3 above 1 nor vice versa.

I don't mean to be rude but that reduces people to numbers, something consequentialists do.
October 08, 2025 at 03:10
understood. Thank you for your time.
October 08, 2025 at 03:08
That's ethics. Understood. Thank you for your time.
October 08, 2025 at 03:07
Philosophy leads to doctrines or principles. Principles are more important than practicality. It sets the standard for our actions. When you break the...

No one seems to agree or comment on it.
October 07, 2025 at 05:14
It does... In terms of deontological individualism.
October 07, 2025 at 03:30
It is not about practical reasoning. If you were given a choice, a hypothetical scenario, or should I say, imperative, what is your preferable choice?
October 07, 2025 at 02:01
I don't understand. I wrote my notes.
October 06, 2025 at 16:03
I apologize if you felt that way, that was my informal way of saying "if you have read it carefully, then you should already know what I'm talking abo...
October 06, 2025 at 15:52
Principles don't bother with practicalities.
October 06, 2025 at 15:51
What if they're absolutely identical entities, with nothing distinguishable among them? And I actually changed the scenario, if you had read it carefu...
October 06, 2025 at 15:38
You can't. We're talking preference here, not capability.
October 06, 2025 at 15:03
Tricks are deception. True (Dark) Magics are done by finding the bugs in the system and capitalizing on them. Miracles happen when something beyond th...
October 06, 2025 at 14:37
What do you personally follow? Consequential or categorical morality?
October 06, 2025 at 14:34
who gets to write it?
October 06, 2025 at 10:37
@"Astorre"@"Tom Storm"@"Banno"@"Outlander"@"ChatteringMonkey"@"I like sushi"@"83nt0n" thoughts?
October 06, 2025 at 10:09
Was expected.
October 06, 2025 at 09:41
You couldn't provide a viable solution either.
October 06, 2025 at 09:33
Why not support my argument of a minarchist state with no constitution, then?
October 06, 2025 at 09:13
I used them as a reference. Do you have any answer to the initial question?
October 06, 2025 at 08:36
we're discussing the rightful authorship from idealistic/principial grounds. The components of the constitution is not in question here.
October 06, 2025 at 08:12
You're right, principles can have subjective value. But doctrines are universally codified. You can choose to follow them or make something out of it ...
October 06, 2025 at 06:07
Principles are more important than practicality. It sets the standard for our actions. When you break the principles, be it secular or religious, you ...
October 06, 2025 at 06:04
take it as "logical or acceptable in principle".
October 05, 2025 at 18:46
There is doctrine, there is hypothesis, then there is fantasy. I'm touching on doctrine here.
October 05, 2025 at 18:37
Can you point out where in my argument you found a flaw and counter it by quoting it?
October 05, 2025 at 18:32
It puts you in jail. Suggest a solution on who should write the constitution?
October 05, 2025 at 18:21
I'm talking consequences here.
October 05, 2025 at 18:14
I'm talking about the world you and I live in.
October 05, 2025 at 18:01
unless you live in a world with no formal law or government or police, i don't know what you're talking about.
October 05, 2025 at 17:58
but jail/police doesn't follow your conscience.
October 05, 2025 at 17:46
but there are laws and that makes you a criminal.
October 05, 2025 at 17:37
I see. I'd love your counterarguments against minarchism.
October 05, 2025 at 17:20
No Constitution seems to be the only answer. I presented the options with counterarguments to see if any of you can come up with an alternative.
October 05, 2025 at 17:18
Theocracy? What if the people are secular and prefer free will?
October 05, 2025 at 17:06
What's your take on minarchism?
October 05, 2025 at 17:05
WHO WRITES the constitution?
October 05, 2025 at 16:58
How do millions (or billions for India and China) of people come under the same roof and draft a publicly acclaimed constitution?
October 05, 2025 at 16:47
Who writes it?
October 05, 2025 at 16:32
Morality is an abstract concept that, alongside psychology, is a physical construct made by hormonal and neural activities.

The purpose of my post was to present a background analysis before submitting for readers' input.
