It just sounds like you are contradicting yourself. The world will collapse with break down of law and order if that was true. What is a prior princip...

Sure, but the suggestion was, wouldn't it be logical to come to some form of demonstration or proof on the existence of God, before going into pointin...

You would know yourself, when you were learning your native language, it was by interactions with the other folks around you, and observing the world ...

Desire or will power is an instinctive need which is the base of all mental operations in the living. Obviously AI is incapable of that mental foundat...

The question was, shouldn't you try to prove the existence of God before discussing about the property of God? Have you proved the existence of God?
January 28, 2025 at 11:09
That sounds like you are accepting the thief's claim as morally right, while maintaining your claim as morally right too, which are totally contradict...

It is clear you haven't answered the question.

If a guy comes to Mok's house, and steals everything, then what would MoK say about the stealing? The guy says to MoK, he is morally right to steal Mo...

Widely known to the public "Will to power" by Nietzsche is a misnomer, which has been misinterpreted and misused for the political slogans. It should ...

I wasn't arguing anything at all. I was just asking you a question.
January 27, 2025 at 12:10
You need to be able to read between the lines on his writings to be able to apply them into your own circumstances wisely. I think I repeated on them ...
January 27, 2025 at 12:08
Of course AI can have memory, and they are very good at memorizing. In fact, the whole responses from AI on the questions put forward by users come fr...

Who are the "people"? If you are an agnostic, shouldn't you try to prove on the existence of God? Talking about the properties of God gave a strong in...

Within the country you live in, by the law and by the judgements of the society, they are the universal law. Please read above. Practical reason deals...

I suppose AI could be programmed to project what the central processor is processing in the form of dreams, imaginations and remembrances, hopes and w...
January 26, 2025 at 17:50
Could you have used the word "property" or "attribute" rather than "essence"? I am sure the concept "essence" can mean different things. Herein arises...
January 26, 2025 at 17:30
The SEP articles are written in standard English. To understand them, you need to understand the standard definition of the words in English. If every...
January 26, 2025 at 17:22
I wonder if AI can understand and respond in witty and appropriate way to the user inputs in some metaphor or joke forms. I doubt they can. They often...
January 26, 2025 at 17:08
Think of this example. It is a fact, and truth that there is a book titled "General Logic" on my desk right now. But you wouldn't have known the fact ...

If you looked into the coding of AI, they are just a database of what the AI designers have typed in to hard drives in order to respond to the users' ...

Morality is value judgements on the actions of humans by the other humans, hence saying morality is personal is negating morality. Life is precious, a...
January 25, 2025 at 14:18
I can sympathise your experience of various ups and downs events with your mobile phone. And suppose the idea of self is a massive and illusive topic ...
January 25, 2025 at 14:12
Here again, your understanding on "essence" seems to be wrong. The essence of God means all the attributes that make God for what the God is. You shou...
January 25, 2025 at 14:02
I think your problem seems to come from not understanding what "universal" means. Universal doesn't mean the whole universe in here. It means in all o...
January 25, 2025 at 13:18
Of course they are different essences, but the question is in what way they are different. Aren't there any details of the properties between the diff...
January 25, 2025 at 11:31
Well, that is exactly same thing as saying the other folks judgements on the morality don't count or matter at all. Morality itself implies objectivit...
January 25, 2025 at 11:25
How are the substances different?
January 25, 2025 at 10:11
It is the same meaning as " Any society prove an action is objectively right or wrong, they must accept it as right or wrong.", but you just changed t...
January 25, 2025 at 10:08
Sure. All computers and mobile phones on earth have been allocated with the unique ID either via IP address or MAC address, hence they could be identi...
January 25, 2025 at 09:32
Your post with the genetics point of view on humans sounded too restricted and even negative, which didn't help adding more useful information on unde...

What are the essences of the God who made Jesus into another God? And what are the essences of the God Jesus?
January 24, 2025 at 12:19
If a community or society come to agreement on certain moral codes, they could make them into the objective and universal law. Then the moral code bec...

If you believed in Science, then life after death looks unlikely. But from the religious point of view, and some QM ideas, life after death seems a po...
January 24, 2025 at 09:16
Sure good point. I used to see mind as the totality of mental operation and reflective consciousness including sensation, perception, reasoning as wel...
January 24, 2025 at 08:32
But what is mind? Is mind only from the biological brain in the living bodies? Or could non-living entities such as machines and tools have mind too?
January 23, 2025 at 23:02
No, I don't have any idea what genetics suppose to be or do in depth. I just thought that genetic is one way to describe humans, but to define humans ...
January 23, 2025 at 18:31
:pray: :smile: You made clear that you are not an atheist. So, the choice for you seems to be between being an agnostic and theist. What are the two e...

Intelligence is a unclear concept. @HarryHindu asked me, if AI blokes are intelligent. Before answering the question, I need to know what intelligence...
January 23, 2025 at 17:52
Universal law doesn't mean some legislative codes or official declaration. It means the way moral good and bad is judged. It is judged by our practica...
January 23, 2025 at 17:47
I thought you did. Maybe it was someone else. My sincere apologies for mistaking your religious stance. So are you a Christian? Of course, they would ...

January 23, 2025 at 09:33
Please read the SEP article on Kant's Moral Philosophy. Here is an article about Hume's Morality as well. And this is Kant vs. Hume on Morality. After...

A genetic point of view seems to have a peculiarly limited idea of humans. Please define intelligence.
January 23, 2025 at 09:14
You claimed you are an atheist. If God doesn't exist, how could he teach you to become omniscient? What would the different substances be in their nat...
January 23, 2025 at 09:10
:ok: :sparkle: From computer programming point of view, AI is just an overrated search engine.
January 22, 2025 at 10:17
The universal and objective morality as a human nature is the principle of Ethics. It doesn't mean 100% human beings understand and practice the moral...
January 22, 2025 at 09:11
Sure. It is rather simple. When we see a fellow human being suffering, we want to offer help to save the folk if we can. It is out of our sympathy in ...

The argument is based on the logical implication from the Ethics and Practical Reasoning by Kant, and the concept of Sympathy of Hume in A Treatise of...
