How can you even measure probability as you do here? What methodology are you using to end up with those numbers? And how can you attach a higher numb...
Yes, you are correct about the grammars. But taking things out of context like this is not very linguistically pragmatic. The semantics, as I mentione...
Unnecessary attack on language skills, which is easily countered by the fact that I hold the highest degree of English language skills within my commu...
Not sure how to respond to this other than that it's hard to use that as a philosophical foundation for any philosophical argument. Philosophical argu...
The interpretation of "atheism" is commonly about atheists demanding proof for something to exist. If you "do not believe in God", which is another in...
That's you interpretation of everything said, that's not the stance I'm at. Your wild and personal interpretation is irrelevant to what I actually wro...
Write a post with a better philosophical substance so I have something to work from. I can't work from answers like "bullshit". It's not that it's tri...
Nope, you just don't understand my argument and replies with it being bullshit instead of nuanced argumentation. Your post is not worthy of being a ph...
Or you could have better manners and phrase your arguments better so that I could care to value your opinion. Right now, valuing your argument relevan...
Have you read the moral theories I posted before? It's basically based on this value calculus :wink: But if we think long term, how do we know that th...
Most questions on this forum have already been asked, so many are unnecessary. But for those that haven't, I still think participation in other thread...
Completely agree that long term is harder, but often tend to focus on a morally better outcome. However, inducing what is morally good or bad in the l...
To you perhaps How do you conclude that to be the true concept of atheism? You have a fundamentally limited understanding of what I actually wrote, so...
Yes, but this was about the source of morals. The source is emotional, vegetarians evolve morals based on their emotional feedback towards other anima...
There should be a post-number before being able to start new threads. Like, after 10 or 20 posts you can start new threads. Far too many new topics li...
Our morals stem from biological emotional feedback that has its roots in how we function as pack animals. If you want the most basic causality start f...
Because it kick-started the conflicts that led to WW1. If it didn't happen, we might be living in a world with a lot of imperial states and we might e...
Atheism is neither agnostic or certain of the non-existence of God. That's the traditional fundamental misunderstanding of atheism. The atheistic appr...
Determinism has solid ground mathematically through probability. At quantum levels, probability has a randomness that hasn't been combined with larger...
The idea of free will is rooted in our defense mechanism against the concept of determinism. We desperately need to justify our own sense of control o...
Would you agree that there are two types of identity? Variable identity, which is an identity which comes before its malleable variation; potato becom...
Time doesn't slow down for the one traveling. Time is constant for the observing traveler, but for anyone looking at the traveler, they would see his ...
Since you start out with the same kind of attitude that I was urging you to stop with I have no reason to continue wasting my time on your ego. You ha...
But you could perceive the concept that a room is still a room if what is inside it is the absence of anything. From this, the property of nothing as ...
It doesn't take much to understand the basic concepts of dialectics and dialectic discourse, but do you think that if you went out on the street and a...
It's often the last thing people hold onto when going from belief to nihilism and understanding the meaninglessness of life. People who believe in rel...
Which is contradicting as to why the rest should be of an almost infinite scale and with such complexity. So that there might even be exotic material ...
You demand a simple answer and I gave it. Belief does not exist without human thinking about something and starting to believe something, out of that ...
Because regular people don't generally understand the concept of a dialectic discussion, they see any discussion between two opinions as an argument w...
Everything is pointless. But even though I'm of the opinion that there's nothing behind the beauty that exists around us, I find there's even more bea...
Because religion, spirituality, and fantasy come to people trying to figure out the unknown without having the tools to really understand them. It hap...
No, it's about being observant to the behavior and opinions of common people around you. If you want to know more about how things are being discussed...
I think I gave you the most realistic answer. Educate and turn people in a democracy towards wanting strict gun laws. You can't do much else. One thin...
I really don't see a problem with finding out what to do. The data is clear that strict gun laws and quality of life/politeness go hand in hand. There...
Just compare societies with low gun control and societies with high gun control - And then compare that to the statistics of best places to live in th...
The question doesn't make sense really. Belief is the ideas in your head about the world around you. They are either supported by something or they ar...
First, please edit your posts instead of spamming them, just a tip. Gets a bit fragmented otherwise. I get your point, but I think you are fragmenting...
That's a dismissive simplification of everything. No, your belief is still unsupported before any kind of support backs it up. If you prove it false, ...
I'm talking about what generally is considered about movies. If you have unlimited freedom you can do whatever you want but that rarely focus your cre...
Enforcement and authority are not essentially really the same thing. So is a decision to give authority to someone else. You can give authority over y...
Have you read previous posts in this dialectic? Maybe you find answers there. I've written in detail about this numerous times in this thread. In esse...
True, I was just going by the question of why it feels that you are "free" when you give up freedom to restrictions through your own schedule. There's...
