I think the question as of why did you something is very interesting. For example you could say "why did you drink that water?" If the person responds...
I feel that doing something without a good reason or doing something for a bad reason is nihilistic. For example my parents are religious and I grew u...
A reason I oppose religion is because I think it is demonstrably false. Most moderate religious people no longer claim that religion is infallible bec...
I don't see the problem here. In order to belive in truth and authenticity you have to believe that they are valid concepts. If you don't care about t...
I think there are a lot of reasons not to have children that are all compelling. For example: The Holocaist ( one of my main reasons for not having ch...
I think that the things we enjoy do not make us want have children. No pleasurable Experience I have had has made that think I must have children. I t...

On the issue of enforceability. In the UK where I live the majority of crimes go unsolved. That is a classic example of how the laws don't enforce the...
Those two statements weren't supposed to be paired. The first point I was making that statements like "I own this house" are fictional or "Child abuse...
I think conflicts like the Israeli/Palestinian one are going to be difficult to resolve because of the problematic status of claims concerning countri...
I think you are conflating rules that people chose to obey as opposed to rules people feel obliged to obey. I don't agree that rule like road laws are...
Apparently evolution has undermined function talk and teleology. In evolutionary theory it is easy to explain behaviour as simply roundabout ways to e...

The difference between this forum and life or society is that we choose to come here and accept the rules. We are imposing the rules on ourselves to a...
It depends what you mean? Useful to whom. Why should usefulness to one set of desires take precedence over usefulness to another set of desires? The i...

I think a child of a parent is in the ideal place to judge the ethics of the actions that created them. If there was a rape you wouldn't ask the perpe...
I think the parent child dynamic is problematic. The child exists solely because of her parents desires and so this is a very unequal one sided relati...
