The "solution" is simple. Keep restrooms the way they have been because there isn't a problem to begin with. Only the idiotic progressive Obama admini...
Yes and I think K is better than the Nietzsche tbh, but Nietzsche is quite good, so yes I do recommend TSZ :p . The thing is, Spinoza's philosophy MAS...
He is an interesting philosopher, who certainly got a lot right. His writings on virtue are some of the best, and I have committed to memory some of h...
Historical Philosophers: Hegel (largely in agreement /w Spinoza) Schopenhauer (largely in agreement) Nietzsche (in both agreement and disagreement - s...
I agree, and the socialism you talk about isn't necessarily something I disagree with :) I would like to see banks nationalized, etc. Agreed. The Esta...
Donald J. Trump is non-establishment as he opposes some of the cultural trends that have dominated the Western world in the last 50 years. He is the o...
It is of moral value for me to take care of my physical health because I can do it. Someone bed-ridden who can't do anything about it - for them it's ...
I agree. In Muhammad Ali's time, everything white was good and everything black was bad. In our time, everything black is good, and everything white i...
No - not exactly. In other words what makes someone a more complete human being, which is something that can be determined objectively. What makes one...
What's the use of this abstraction? Even a non-human rational animal of the same kind humans are would be characterised by much more than their freedo...
I am considering human nature, personhood is just part of human nature. Red herring and strawmanning. I never said we have to directly perceive it to ...
That's what you may subjectively identify as virtue. Objectively, virtue is that which leads to the flowering of human potential. We may disagree what...
Sure just like "sketch" is sketch and "quick drawing" is quick drawing ;) Relative to what? To human nature? I agree. Relative to what you and I think...
It does not make sense to say something exists without even the possibility of it being perceived. What sense would it have for me to say aliens exist...
I just hope you are pulling my leg here :p Incoherent under the system I (and Socrates) present: "Wealth does not bring about virtue , but VIRTUE MAKE...
And claiming to have a "new" theory is just uninteresting. Newness has no value in philosophy - it's truth that is of value. You ignore the process of...
Where did I say this? It's less about dressing and more about behaviour. In fact I think women who dress showing a little bit of skin (not outright na...
Right wing is at least better than hyper-sexualised and irresponsible progressivism ;) But I do admit the older Left has some important ideas, which s...
How quaint that today people are interested in the "new" instead of the "true" in philosophy... :( The dichotomy objective/subjective doesn't truly ho...
I am not convinced of the truth of idealism, but Schopenhauer's logic seems quite good. We come to know of the world through perception. Indeed it is ...
Not at all. Awareness of an idea does not mean production of an idea. An idea can and does exist prior to your awareness of it. The idea of a chair is...
What Hume's CP misses is that impressions are always-already structured by the mind, and hence there is no deriving of the idea of the chair by seeing...
Donald J. Trump with two hands and two feet I would vote. In fact, if it was Kasich/Cruz/Trump vs Hillary/Bernie, I would vote with two hands and two ...
Completion is achieved only sub specie aeternitatis, never sub specie durationis, hence one can never be done. There never exists a point in life when...
I will open it sometime today most likely. Need a bit more concentrated time than I have at the moment (in the meantime, if you want, you can open it,...
Well you have a right to think that and to disbelieve me if you want. When I claim I knew it, I meant to say the following. I have studied and thought...
Intimacy and reproduction are the goals of sex in my theory, not necessarily of any other human activity. They are further not the only interests of a...
What does this say Willow? :-d Again, I simply don't know what you Willow are reading, because you clearly are not reading what I wrote. The need for ...
Yes you can stand by whatever you want, fact of the matter is that you proved nothing, and your post lacks any philosophic or scientific content, quit...
Asinus... how is an examination of the role of sex in life (and on man's psychology/well-being) not philosophy? Or do you always cry and point fingers...
Not hopelessly. Even Becker leaves the Kierkegaardian alternative of the knight of faith. Yes. In the way Becker understands it yes - I argue, as some...
This is what I call a rhetorical device, which is ultimately intellectually dishonest, but its function happens to be to move the will, not the intell...
Indeed. But I don't go to the extreme of promiscuity just because we have been abstinent and repressive in the past. I am not like a pendulum swinging...
Like all human beings, they too must be given the freedom required to fulfil their potentials. I always wondered if this is a good thing. I would imag...
