The mysticism of the world can provide a ground for morality. The word "dead" refers to a mammal that has died. I don't see matter as "dead" but havin...
I'm serious. Why do you care what I think anyway? If it bothers you maybe there is something you need to discover about yourself. I'm wasn't referring...
I wouldn't mind but that's beside the point. We are becoming a valueless society where women want themselves to be dominant and men to be submissive e...
Punishment hurts but it can save the criminal. As for the kissing thing, I don't see how a real man can claim he was sexually assaulted by a girl's ki...
I don't really know how homosexuals and lesbians are. I don't really understand them well. But women certainly aren't weak, they are just different fr...
It's not hard to understand. If they think their actions will lead to a situation where they reasonably need to let embryos die then that should be il...
Women and men are not the same. If a man is talking and the woman suddenly kisses him, that is not sexual assault. The other way around it is sexual a...
That's how I interpret Kant There are two types of pure (real) idealists: those who believe that reality is all thought and those who believe our thou...
I'm not sure he does. Hegel seems to in most people's reading of him, but I don't think he is a pure idealist, nor Heidegger. I've never heard of Heid...
If I leave someone behind on a dangerous journey because i have to, that is not the same as shooting him in the head. And as for women, I don't think ...
Kant's basic idea was a union of the thought of Parmenides and Heraclitus such the the world was both subjective and objective, and thus beyond both. ...
I don't think anyone has added anything to Kant. Hegel, Heidegger, and maybe Husserrl (who I don't know much about) have just taken the basic idea dee...
I agree that spirit and soul come from biology but emergence creates a whole new level of reality. I'm an atheist but I believe in spirit and soul and...
There is no noumema, only appearance, but being is becoming and becoming is being. Phenomenology as I see it started with Kant and was developed very ...
Whether the abortion doctor is female or not does not matter. I don't know if we can judge pregnant women in their abortion decisions but we can judge...
I know how this forum works. I have 3000 posts and 100 threads. Studying philosophy is a big part of my life and I have a unique approach it seems in ...
The only people I called Nazis was, firstly, you because you did not hesitate to say "I'd be perfectly willing to kill a pre-sentient foetus". That's ...
I genuinely don't hate you but I don't know what you want from this conversation. I'm not sure I'm willing to discuss philosophy for hours on end in h...
If someone spends years studying philosophy without knowing they have a soul then they've dug themselves into a deep hole. Philosophy can be very dang...
If you can't feel your soul you can't know philosophy. I read Kant to Hegel, who were obviously atheists who COULD feel their souls and knew morality ...
Babies have brain waves and heart beats by ten weeks, so that establishes (one would assume) that you can't kill them at that point. Knowing that the ...
Brains are not necessary for sentience. Like I have said many times on this forum, dividing the line between Christian philosophy and common materiali...
That's a very wicked way to define autonomy. And you say suicide doesn't destroy the soul? Well there are messed up people poising as philosophers eve...
I had a thread on randomness and I think you making a joke lol, because you did participate with some great observation. I don't know how they can rul...
They pick random samples sometimes in physics but if our will is predetermined nothing we do is random like that. Non local variables are ones we can'...
I've seen videos saying Bell's theorem is about randomness. Maybe it's too complex to explain to non-physicists. The PBS spacetime series said Bell hi...
To that a pre-born entity is a person but that a mother can kill her offspring before birth shows no respect for motherhood or babies. I want to repea...
Letting fertilized eggs die outside the womb is not killing them. Preventing a fertilized egg from going onto the wall of the uterus is different. I c...
The father and mother make the child at conception. Preventing it from getting unto the wall of the uterus is abortion. If it's outside the womb it is...
Spooky action at a distance was proved in Einstein's day I thought. It all pretty confusing. Faster than light action can be explained, or explained a...
If they can rule out any hidden variables, then Bell's theorem proves there is randomness in the universe. This makes sense with regard to entropy any...
