@"Possibility" I think you should get involved in this discussion. You can go into the Hebrew origins of this view too. Possibility is a really intell...

It would seem that you are starting to have inclinations toward thinking about the very modality of ethics itself. What it is for, what it’s purpose/f...

Nope, not biting.

Out of curiosity what did you answer in this poll? I’m Assuming you are qualified to make a formal assessment of someones level of education based on ...

Okay, font of all grounding knowledge. Let us all bow to your opinion on what is right and wrong. “You mean like law or business ethics?” No, it is a ...

yes, I’ve clearly been projecting that I want to know who you are this whole time. Get a life. I’m not letting you bait me into showing you my certifi...

you never asked me what it was on and I never told you? Where have you asked that? No I’m hinting at what I believe. You really need to read what is b...

So you’re annoyed that I didn’t tell you what my thesis was about? Also it isn’t wrong to say that not all business ethics is applied ethics because f...

applies ethics is pretty broad and it should go without saying, it isn’t the same as a masters in business ethics. It could be, but it’s not and I don...

Applied Ethics.
October 19, 2019 at 14:50
The Masters is actually in Ethics but it’s still a branch of philosophy so totally counts.

Well, am I really white? If we put that logic to it’s utmost extreme, then why not break it down even more? Should I identify my race as Tanned Peach?...

I still think you’re forcing us all into a false paradigm. I do not accept Atheist and theist as the only two paradigms, I am Agnostic and why would t...

Thank you!
October 13, 2019 at 07:21
I feel we need to maybe separate the terms “God” and “Deity”. I feel god implies an entity whereas a deity is that which is deified. For example: I gr...

on the Tangent: I’ll let you know if I start a discussion on financial ethics. Glad it is of interest to you though! As for theist, atheist and agnost...

I’d have liked a middle ground Agnostic choice as that is where if fall. In ethics, two points of view tend to be grounded in god, that of divine comm...

I guess I’m just confused as to how small p pragmatism is any different than just Pragmatism in your eyes.
July 30, 2019 at 11:01
“That's because you're not one. Those of us who are, do.” not quite sure I understand what you mean by this?

Ahhh, but if I ask you to prove your existence to me, there is a logical argument I could make that you are as much a part of an elaborate simulation ...
July 29, 2019 at 20:59
Apologies for some of the things I said yesterday. Your grief matters to me, my grief matters to you. This should be enough common ground to keep a re...
July 29, 2019 at 20:51
I think you are both engaging in the topic of truth without realizing that there is not a single uniform truth definition within philosophy. Pragmatis...

July 29, 2019 at 11:54
So are you saying whether or not an individual decides to call something a person is irrelevant, so long as it at least matters to them that the being...

I dont think youre ready for it. Thats why I'm done. My emotions right now are more akin to frustration with a student not taking in what is being spo...

What gives you any right to deny anyones personhood or deny the definitions generations of philosophers before you have CLEARLY DEFINED? Ive made ever...

Also, if you were familiar with the history of philosophy, you'd know that psychology used to be a branch of philosophy. If you'd been in any ethics c...

No personhood is not metaphysical it is purely a moralistic determination of value. I'm done talking about this with you. You arent understanding what...
July 29, 2019 at 00:10
it’s not my idea. This is how personhood is delivered in a philosophy class. As someone part of the moral community worthy of moral consideration. Not...

“To say that a being deserves moral consideration is to say that there is a moral claim that this being can make on those who can recognize such claim...
July 28, 2019 at 21:04
I’m sorry but this here is nonsensical. If someone isn’t part of our moral community then they are a person. In philosophy personal identity “persona”...
July 28, 2019 at 20:12
A few questions I have for you; Why do you think personhood can only be granted to intrinsically valuable entities and what argument do you employ to ...
July 28, 2019 at 17:54
It is not my theory at all. The post-enlightenment definition of personhood is "an entity who recieves moral consideration." So, if a couple decide th...
