You are inconsistent, so I'll repeat myself: But then why are people born with less than 10 fingers on a hand, or born without legs still considered h...

It's nice to see we agree.

But then why are people born with less than 10 fingers on a hand, or born without legs still considered human? Isn't being human more than just having...

Wrong. I am the one not cherry-picking resources. Noticed how pointed out one of the statements in what I quoted as supporting his argument because I'...

Cherry-picking. The part you quoted does not take into account the rest of what was said. You need to take the quote as a whole. All you need to do is...

Wikipedia? Seriously? Lazy. :roll: I argued the bold type - which you side-stepped.

Wrong. You continue to purposely misunderstand what I have written. If legal or public policy is not based in reality, then what use is it? Do you mak...

Yet we can talk about particular ideas. It always seems to me that the best answers lie somewhere in the middle of two extremes - realism and nominali...

They believe they are man when they are a woman. That is the delusion. Pleading to authority is a logical fallacy. I asked what makes sex so special i...

Masculinity and femininity are different across different cultures, so not necessarily based in the biology of the sexes. If gender is a social constr...

You are focused on affirming the delusions of delusional people. I never said trans-people don't exist. I said that their beliefs are delusions, just ...

You obviously haven't read a word I wrote. I'm not focused on their genitals. I am focused on their psychology. You are the one focused on sex as you ...

What I mean is are the boundaries between things real or dependent upon our goals? When is it useful to imagine a boundary between living and non-livi...

Wrong. You are avoiding the relevant issue. You are also focused on symptoms and not the cause. Asking which bathrooms trans-people used before this b...

It would seem to me that any change or motion would be a type of process. Is there any type of change or motion that would not count as a process? Doe...

Well, yeah. The mind is a process. Atoms are processes, organisms are processes, galaxies are processes. No "substance", which is an antiquated term n...

Is it ok to affirm a delusional person's delusions? Is it ok to prescribe an anorexic person diet pills to affirm their distorted view of their body? ...

You didn't answer my question about which bathrooms trans-people have been using before this became an issue. Nor did you respond to how trans-people ...

This is like saying that a delusional person ought not to suffer the knowledge that they are deluding themselves. This is also saying that the same pe...

What is the "big picture" if not "all the details", or integrating all details into a consistent whole (big picture)? When you don't integrate all the...

Any ontology that includes terms like "souls" and "spirits" to define different levels of "substance" does not map onto the world as we understand it ...

That is not the solution. The solution is for you to start being more logically consistent, intellectually honest and take your own advice to ignore d...

Do we have the same problem with the term, "process"?

Where in the scientific explanation was the word, "stuff" used, or what makes you believe that "stuff" was implied when "substance" is used? It seems ...

But was the opposition really silencing them? If the citizens heard them both and the rhetoric from alternative views was not calling to silence anyon...

I can't when people like yourself do not ignore it and assume their claims are true and then start threads like this to have a debate about bathrooms ...

But if Hitler was really standing up for free speech then alternative views would have an equal amount of play-time on the radio waves. There must hav...

Wasn't it your argument that they rioted BECAUSE they didn't know the race of the person? You can't have your cake and eat it too. When you see minors...

What I'm asking is how does either notion of substance compliment what we currently know scientifically and vice versa. The conclusions we reach in al...

:roll: Are Christians trying to bring God back into public schools from a street corner? I don't want it to be my business but they try to make my bel...

Straw man. I'm not talking about the people that are deluded and keeping their delusion to themselves. If I identified as the reincarnated spirit of E...

I never said there isn't room on the planet for anyone, nor am I trying to squash anyone. My whole point when it comes to politics - if you've read an...

Is there a difference between process in the philosophical sense and process in the everyday sense? Sounds to me like our understanding has evolved si...

And my point is why use the term, "substance" when there is a better term to use - "process"? If what you really mean is "process" when using the term...

What I'm doing about it is exposing the hypocrisy and motivations of the extreme left for open minds to see. It was only a few years ago that even que...

The only permanent thing is change. There is no substance - only process or relations. Things only appear to persist in time because of our limited pe...

That wasn't the question. And you didn't keep your bullshit to yourself until I exposed your hypocrisy. Now you, and everyone else that drank the tran...

Where would this duplicate world be relative to the original? It appears to me that the duplicate would be part of the greater reality that includes t...

Ok then. We've both spoken to trans-people. The difference is that you simply accepted their claims without question. Do you do that with other extrao...

You mean you haven't and yet you're speaking for them?

And I think you have drunk the Kool-Aid without questioning. How does one live as a woman if one is a guy?

What does that even mean? What is a trans-woman and how does it differ from a man or woman? Man and woman are biological entities so to be a trans-wom...

It's not even that because the trans-movement claims that one is a woman simply by claiming it. A man is no longer a man once they enter a woman's bat...

Propagating a delusion as if it were real, creating mass delusion, is what makes everyone less safe. If a man cannot be a woman then why have a debate...

Irrelevant. What needs to be proven here is if a man can be a woman.

I'm not sure as men have mostly been kept out of women's bathrooms so it would logically follow that most assaults on women occurred outside of the ba...

What are the statistics on dwarf on normal-statured people assaults vs men on women assaults?

That depends on whether your fear is realistic or not (delusional).

That's not a language game. That's a scribble game. What makes a scribble a word?

You made solipsism a tenable position by saying things like, "we don't see the world as it is". I'm now asking you how you can then say "solipsism is ...
