I feel what people outside of certain Faiths need to realise, is that even within those faiths, consensus isn’t something they have internally. Plenty...
Whether theism or anti theism, either way one seems to claim a knowing of the answer, or in the least knowing enough to give an answer. For those of u...
Yeah, I took umbrage with that too and was given a crappy argument about how agnosticism doesn’t exist while the word was being used to claim the conc...
@"Terrapin Station" I see you both as members of the justice league and the joker is personified by the morally indifferent and apathetic. Let me be c...
I get where you’re coming from. Even the apologists and internal critics of faiths are wondering what the hell is going on with all the evangelical ex...
Thank you haha flew over my head there! Should have a discussion on humour soon. Did you get a chance to read the last link I sent you to the philosop...
Encompass the whole of society and it’s structures in individual unity = force humans to conform to an individuals ideas of “unity” “Everyone shut up ...
Agree with this. The polling questions aren’t very well done. How can you answer yes or no to a binary choice between two options that aren’t yes or n...
There is a bit of an irony there; that if we acted out of care of the moral standing of future people we’d be benefitting ourselves in the present. I’...
Personally, I think non-philosophical rational thought isn’t something unique to humans. There is what is rational in relation to being say a crow or ...
I’d disagree. Crows have the capacity for rational thought, in that it has some powerful skills we’d call intelligent problem solving skills. The New ...
Wow, that’s pretty powerful. Don’t know if I’m reading my own biocentric ethical view in the meaning or not but it sounds like what I call god; the ov...
Not the detail of how humans answer the question. Tell us now, it’s the last thing we need before we vaporise your planet. This one has been sent to o...
Oh believe me, you’re in the herd. Not us here. The key features of the “herd” is arrogance, ignorance and a blind devotion and submission to the ego....
assume that the alien can read what is currently on your mind and you have to tell them like that. What images, videos, words, feelings and people wou...
Would anyone be opposed to just being referred to as X? “Oh hey, Davina is come to the party” “Oh cool, is X going to be bringing a friend?” “No, I’m ...
Sticking more to the OP; in the sentence “Witchcraft is a type of supernagic” to me is describing not something of supernatural origin. It’s describin...
Well I think we need to have that sense else we wouldn’t be able to discuss fiction properly. Outside of books, saying “Harry Potter is a wizard” and ...
- @"dazed" While I agree somewhat with the sentiment, when you said describe physical characteristics I immediately thought that skin colour is a phys...
@"Pantagruel" I feel that Descartes here goes against your argument. He would see us as the masters and possessors of nature rather than its shepherds...
As soon as I hear someone self describe themselves as a holder of radical ideas or beliefs, I back away slowly. The Ego trap is strong with this one.....
Guys, if you want to talk about Donald trump and the current presidential candidacies can you please keep your discussions in the appropriate threads....
I mean the definition at the time and now of Nonetheless and Notwithstanding to mean “Not hindered or obstructed by” seems pretty clear to me. Then th...
Uhm the White House transcript of the call is accessible to anyone https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/09/25/us/politics/trump-ukraine-transcript...
The testimony so far has seemed to outline a clear quid pro quo, even without quid pro quo a sitting president SHOULD NOT be requesting political dirt...
While I agree with you; that doesn’t change the issue of the constitution and how it relates to the processes of both Impeachment and Indictment, it i...

Just use whatever their fucking name is. Gender is a social construct, biological sex isn’t. However I’d prefer not to be him, I’d just prefer my name...

Maybe just one trait; they do all share a locus, that is to say an anchor point based in physical reality. A Rock has its true physical existence outs...
Indeed. I feel it also ignores the variables of states we do know about. These sorts of arguments are nearly always made in relation to the physics of...
goalposts have been exactly in the same place the whole time. You just haven’t reached them. Artemis is getting closer than you at least. I don’t know...
I get it. Obviously I’m acknowledging that I and everyone else acts as if A priori knowledge exists because we wouldn’t be able to live our lives othe...
Careful, now you’re moving towards the etymology of those words and it only gets trickier from there. Nothing about Tri inherently implies three and n...
As for all Bachelors are unmarried, that is a self negating statement. Bachelors already means unmarried. Besides my issue with language, the phrase y...
