There's some very odd posts here without any reasoning behind them - just wild accussations, generalizing people based on the color of their skin, etc...
But what have you provided as solution? More unenforcable rules? And how is the rule, "treat people equally or there will be negative consequences" no...
You and I seem to have different views of what entails the "macro". I typically avoid discussions involving morals/values precisely because values are...
Yeah, I don't see a need for reform when reform has already happened, or that there are rules in the books for treating people equally. When there are...
What is your point - that whites recognize the color of skin and then do what - treat others with different color skin equally? I don't see how one is...
That was Dust in the Wind. I don't understand the problem. What would be the purpose of asking what a universe without anything would be like? What qu...
You didn't give a reason (in other words - you aren't reasoning). You just gave another example of bandwagoning. LOL. What is the point in recognizing...
That's because what is positive and good is subjective. You can't define what is positive or good on macro scale because there is no such thing. So, i...
Wow. Some people are still living in the 1950s. There are differences in eye and hair color as well, but most people seem to be focused on skin color....
What would a "deeper engagement with life" mean? How is being good to those your care about, and therefore creating your purpose with them, not a deep...
That's your response to my post? :lol: That wasn't the issue, but 180 wants to make that the issue to avoid what was said in the rest of the post they...
I had a similar experience growing up in a Christian home and becoming more aware of the wider world and all the other beliefs that correlated to wher...
How about Zeus? Then how could a human even come to have the concept of "god" in their head if there is no reason (evidence) for them to have it? Reas...
Racism is a type of prejudice - not something separate. You seem to have missed my post about the differences between cultures in which systemic racis...
You have to start with defining god so that I may show the incoherence of the concept. Actually, that is how all "God Exists" thread should start - in...
There is a difference in cultures where racism is promoted by the state (Nazi Germany) and cultures where racism isn't promoted by the state and is ra...
If you are so sure that racism is just a fact of life for cultures that have a majority/minority dichotomy, then what is the purpose of complaining ab...
Clearly you don't understand what you wrote. To assume that others think or act a particular way based on the color of their skin is racist. That is w...
Because I'm not the one making the claim that some thing exists! If you are, then define that thing if you expect me to believe in it too. If you can'...
So minorities assume that the majority is thinking in terms of race, rather than how the OP is explaining that everyone should look at race. It racist...
Yes. Not necessarily impossible. Like I said, your concept of time is limited - as if this small span of time that humans exist in is the goal of some...
But the brain is part of the body, so in studying the brain, you are studying the body. I am not aware that neuroscience is at odds with biology or th...
You don't seem to understand what unfalsifiable means. Prove to me that unicorns don't exist, or that I'm not Elvis reincarnated. It's not the respons...
This is a contradiction. But that was my point - that mind is a process. I never mentioned the incoherent dichotomy of materialism/idealism, physical/...
It's not. You should think about it more objectively. Claiming a god exists is a positive assertion without any evidence. It is an unfalsifiable claim...
No, it doesn't. That was my point - that we need to reject this notion that order and design go hand in hand. It is the goal that we need to determine...
How would one know that one is all-knowing? Would that even qualify as "knowledge"? It seems to me that "all-knowing" is an incoherent term and doesn'...
Mind is a bodily process - no different than your breathing or digesting is. Philosophy of mind would fall under the category of philosophy of body, w...
It seems to me that disorder doesn't necessarily mean that their isn't a designer either. People leave messes and are disorganized themselves. If I sa...
I still don't understand your point. And after reading your replies to others, I dont understand why they still try to engage you and participate in t...
At one point in history monotheism was a minority view. A view becomes a mass delusion when the elites in a society propagate and enforce the belief b...
Its strange to ask why something natural is necessary. I dont think "detail" is an adequate term for what you are asking either. It seems to me that w...
No, I provided the definition of social construction from your source - Google. You provided definitions of "gender" as a social construction, but nev...
I've asked those questions numerous times and you're just now finding it interesting? You win a gold metal for the mental gymnastics, fdrake. I see th...
No, sexist assumptions are assumptions that have nothing to do with one's sex - like what kind of clothes you should wear and what kind of job you sho...
You're still skipping the issue. What is a social construction? We already went over how one gets various identities. Your problem is that you are con...
I don't understand the point you're trying to make here. That wasn't the problem I said that you have. Another problem you have is that you don't pay ...
:roll: The logic is just so bad here. If gender/sex is a social construction, then it can't be a self-defined identity. It is a socially defined ident...
Right, which would entail not recognizing or labeling anyone as man, male, woman or female. Essentially we would erase gender/sex and the related term...
Here we go again repeating myself. We're going in circles because you keep forgetting the other points I already made. If "gender" is a "social constr...
