A close friend of mine whom I've collab'd a lot on music with just came out as trans this week, and it coincides with her official announcement on joi...

Can you put it in layman's terms?
August 08, 2018 at 06:55
Disinterested; yes. This is the nugget I could never pull out of the Gospels; Can I love myself on my own? Can I care for myself the way I care for so...

Elaborate! Discuss! Dream! Disagree! Join us, SLX!
August 08, 2018 at 06:34
I feel that that's the real issue. What does it mean to love oneself?
August 08, 2018 at 06:34
I would say love, maybe. That's a loaded word, though. But of course ethics deals with love. We can look at it apophatically; @"StreetlightX" and I do...
August 08, 2018 at 06:30
To systematize ethics is definitely problematic. Ethics is complex. No one can figure out ethics; it's a bitch. But the intellect still deals with eth...

:lol:
August 08, 2018 at 06:21
Btw, and more to your point here; so what that people don't intellectualize ethics on a day to day basis? What do people intellectualize on a normal d...
August 08, 2018 at 06:14
Respectfully, Posty, I don't think it's a case of "whereof one cannot speak, thereof one ought to remain silent." I think we can speak about how ethic...
August 08, 2018 at 06:08
You don't know me; I can't even try to tell you that I think about ethics all the time in daily life, and that I feel awkward all the time in normal i...
August 08, 2018 at 06:00
So, how should one live?
August 08, 2018 at 05:55
What angered me about @"StreetlightX"'s response which I tried to express in parody, which obviously doesn't work for most people in general (sorry SL...

Yo, my mans just took me to Scarr's tonight. Best slice in NYC. Hands down.

Another thread silenced by the great arbiter of truth, SLX.
August 08, 2018 at 05:41
Apparently what's funny is that I'm challenging your attempt to shutdown discussion of whether or not viewing ethics as intellectual makes one a monst...
August 08, 2018 at 05:18
What's funny?
August 08, 2018 at 05:13
Anyone who doesn't care how i respond is a monster.
August 08, 2018 at 05:07
Great. Are you trying to shut down this aspect of the discussion? How are you anticipating that I might respond?
August 08, 2018 at 05:04
So, no discussion?
August 08, 2018 at 05:03
Are you trying to shut down this aspect of the discussion? How are you anticipating that I might respond?
August 08, 2018 at 05:01
Ethics aren't intellectual, then?
August 08, 2018 at 04:50
What sort of issue is it?
August 08, 2018 at 04:47
I'm politically alienated, apolitical, centrist, and politically apathetic.
August 06, 2018 at 02:16
My beliefs are irrefutable.
August 03, 2018 at 07:36
A reasonable bedtime.
August 03, 2018 at 07:10
Me neither. That makes me very cautious about any sort of AI in which the human condition is claimed to be improved. AI is just yet more neutral tech ...

Are you faithful? Are you blameless? Are you pure?

He didn't claim the opposite of abolishment.
August 03, 2018 at 04:59
This is what you should have highlighted in the context of what we're talking about.
August 03, 2018 at 04:58
The difference is that I'm not a Christian. I hope I'm called least in the kingdom of heaven.
August 03, 2018 at 04:52
What? :rofl: :vomit: If they had produced the man, and the two witnesses, he would have allowed them to stone both of them? What was Jesus, just anoth...
August 03, 2018 at 04:15
And what if she was guilty and didn't repent? That's when Jesus picks up the first stone, right? Can't you hear the Pharisee in your own voice, Agu? J...
August 02, 2018 at 06:24
I was..anyway..
August 02, 2018 at 06:19
Thanks; no, just the music. The dancers improvised their movements within a short space on the walkway when no one else was walking; slowed down, I li...

Revisiting this weird piece; I made the music. https://vimeo.com/187837105

Ah, sarcasm...

August 01, 2018 at 05:46
So you're basing your moral stance here on old testament law, yeah? Jewish law, right? You practice Judaism? And Jesus did too, right? No, of course n...
August 01, 2018 at 05:15
You mean "thought experiment" threads on TPF, right?
July 31, 2018 at 04:47
There are a lot of assumptions you're making there, it's hard to find a clear line of argument, and I'm not sure how any of it is a response to what I...
July 28, 2018 at 19:36
Just jumping in randomly, per usual. Aren't the last two amenable to one another? Beneath legalism, whether religious or atheistic or whatever, isn't ...

I was just pointing out what the Imago Dei represents within the tradition of Christianity, in contrast to your caricature of it.
