I like sushi

How on earth can you realise you are bisexual at 5 yrs old? That makes no sense to me whatsoever so I am assuming you meant something else maybe?

Thank you for some well presented clear examples. I would be very interested to hear how you equate these with ‘habits’ and ‘instincts’. Does one act ...

What about non-religious ‘rituals’?

Women, on average, are considerably physically weaker than men and shorter than men. These physical factors are quite a difference (ie. A man can pote...

They have numerous things in common. So what?

Sex is biological. Many people have used gender and sex synonymously for decades. I do believe sexual preferences can change simply because my attract...

Deleted post (got confused between who posted what!)

@"Tate" Not completely related but think you will enjoy. Sapolsky is a brilliant speaker (thanks for reminding me he exists): https://www.youtube.com/...

This is backwards. Women are the ones who select mates above men. Again, this is well known.

Compared to most other apes this is pretty common knowledge. It is not just me saying it. Sapolsky refers to humans as ‘the confused ape’ because we a...

Probably because males are not that much strong (nor different) from women compared to other apes.

In my sin bin for a month. Bye bye. You will get no response from me again until mid-October.

An empirical claim is a philosophical claim nitwit.

Your OP is fine. Ignore those looking to smear you rather than offer any kind of constructive criticism. ‘Religious believers’ do not deserve any kind...

It is a fairly reasonable point. Seeing a woman wearing a trouser suit is not exactly ‘confusing’ to any kids imo. The whole ‘gender’ narrative atm is...

So your concern is that people will not be as white? Not quite sure how that ties into cultural traditions at all tbh. Personally I am expecting the v...

Why are you lumping Brasil and the US together? They share little in common other than Brasil having a much more tarnished history in terms of slavery...

One of the most sensible and effective ways to do this would be by example though. Can we really do away with people we look up to and if we can what ...

I guess we’ll have to wait for their reply.

I think they may be asking more than saying. As in what kind of ‘model’ person should liberal people look to for inspiration? What kind of values are ...

Manipulation and misinformation are ubiquitous across all political colours (in public circles likely more so due to wilful ignorance).

His question was hidden but it is fairly clear. He proposed the idea that today ‘liberalism’ is about ‘getting rid of role models’. Ironically ‘plural...

This is actually false. There are plenty of accounts of people ‘going to hell’ then when they recover from their ‘brain death’ they try and turn their...

My point was that is was not a definition of liberalism at all because ‘liberal’ views are still a loosely defined set of rules. I see it as closer to...

We are currently nowhere near having any kind of testable hypothesis for a multiverse. As a scientific idea it is one that may or may not be true and ...

There are a few cases where patients have been declared ‘Brain Dead’ then made a full recovery. Whether they were actually brain dead, or it was a mis...

That is a true extreme liberal idea planted in there ;P We are most certainly NOT all equal :D All societies handle conflict. That is probably a damn ...

My impression is that in the US ‘liberal’ (in terms of politicians) basically means slightly right of centre to anyone from Europe.

There is an interesting point in here. I think there is something too the idea of people wanting to do away with ‘role models’ and such. Is this prima...

I have pretty much declared something quite similar and went into depth on this subject elsewhere. I came at it from the perspective of the ‘Hypotheti...

I will attempt to translate the above. What I mean is that ethics is important. It runs alongside our general rational understanding of the world. To ...

That one.

This sentence looks like word salad to me. I think you have not found then correct words to ask your question or that you are using these words in a v...

Yes. Not much more to add. Sorry.

I’ve met numerous people who have a degree and cannot write a paragraph. Writing, like reading, is an extremely difficult skill to master. For some re...

Maybe your brother’s point was that you talk and talk and end up saying ‘nonsense’ as you put it. In that respect I would be inclined to agree that th...

My personal ‘belief’ here is that we are all already dead (just like everyone else before and after us) and that we are all ‘immortal’ too. In short, ...

No it isn’t. Philosophising about philosophy is still philosophy. Evaluating some proposed body of ‘philosophical work’ can be done from multiple para...

Nietzsche became a drooling potato. He didn’t commit suicide.

How people say they will react is usually quite different from how they would react. Generally speaking if someone’s worldview (axis mundi/weltanshauu...

I can answer this easily enough. It would depend on the mechanism of Astrology and the scientific mindset. Some scientists deny any suggestion of a ca...

To state that scientists have been wrong all of the time is blatantly false. Newton was not ‘wrong’ just because Einstein came along with more accurat...

I know enough to know that prominent neuroscientists today have stated that in their youth they were told to steer clear of research into ‘consciousne...

Bjorn Lomborg is a somewhat questionable source. Check your sources out thoroughly, question them, hold onto doubt and try to destroy your heroes at e...

Maybe you should read what I said before stating I didn’t say it? Climate scientists have been studying the climate. Did you think I believed they hav...

Jesus didn’t write the Bible did he? If he existed he might have been a good teacher and someone to look up to. All I know is the Bible is a piece of ...

No it is not. To question the possible effects of a changing climate is reasonable. Like I said, a great many so-called ‘Climate Deniers’ are simply q...

Yes.

Climate Change is normal. The impact of humans on the climate is also a factor. Ironically it is likely those that push for ‘greener’ living, at the e...

Philosophy is classed as part of the humanities. Hence, ‘Arts’ rather than ‘Science’ … yet Social Sciences are not always classed as ‘Science’ … demar...
