I think the foundational premise of the piece is wrong. Morality is not reducible to co-agential interaction alone. All value calculation, regardless ...

This is not true. All value calculation are necessarily moral in nature, regardless of whether they are other-regarding or self-regarding.

Ahhh... no it is not. The Gettier hypotheticals completely annihilated the JTB.

The meanings of words are debated, cataloged, and referenceable. The vast majority of this work is done to a high degree of accuracy. To have a need t...

People's views on what constitutes a fact are far to limited. Everything that occurs is a fact - everything that actually transpires. The emotional st...

I went to the doctor day before yesterday. They said it was bronchitis. They gave me antibiotics. I been sick 14 days now. :shade:

Yah, I got sick man. Been sick for what seems like forever now.

I am not sure what you mean? Serious about what?

To complex for my little brain to do. Or at least I have not spent a life time thinking about it as he has. He is definitely not working from an empty...

I only ask because there is a lot of apologetics you have to get through to claim that "every theistic-type of g/G is fictional" and Jordan Peterson m...

What are your arguments against Jordan Peterson's interpretations of theistic divinity?

Fair enough. As long as you limit your claims to "theism is false" not "god is false."

I don't think that my definition of science is loose. I have studied the mater extensively. You where taught how to interpret the data every time your...

Fixed this^^^ changed scenery to sensory. Damn you autocorrect.

It is not obtained independent of reason and logic. Not everything requires a full on scientific investigation. You still have to interpret the data t...

I'm considering this one closely. My first inclinations where to be snarky, but I don't want to do that. May take some time.

Sensory perception is pretty well understood already by science and does not fall into the category of needs, desires and emotions.

I thought we were looking for truth not authority. My bad.

I don't know that your examples qualify as knowledge they are not consistent. Need and desire: Do heroin addicts need heroin? Is their desire for hero...

I agree with everything you've said here. I dealt with this sort of thing so much in other places that I basically have the responses prescripted now....

Since I didn't follow what you said before, I have no idea how to respond to this. You should try again.

This is just babbling to me. I have no Idea what this is supposed to mean.

No man people have run many test to identify the physical characteristics of glass and water, including yourself, over the course of your life time. I...

What the h*** are you talking about. If you have a true/factual/tested physical explanation for a phenomenon YOU NO LONGER NEED TO BELIEVE what ever i...

It is not a custom. Your 'knowledge" of the route is based on a lifetime of lived experimental data.

No. You observe that there is a glass before you, you observe that there is water in the glass, you have tested - for however many years you have been...

Christ man, you have got to be kidding me. This is not how the human brain works.

It is not.

Have you ever studied chemistry. You do a lot of application of facts to learn that they are facts.

Only application. If you know the facts, you can apply them with invariable results. Have you ever studied chemistry? If not, you could think of it li...

Try typing into google "the fae" rather than just fae. Edit>>> Well it actually pulls it up both ways. I thought you said you already tried.

Fae is a term for mystical creatures like fairies (also spelled "faerie"), gnomes, sirens, succubi, etc

Yah, this is not how I see it. It would be the position that proposition p has no current relevant value. Either "mays", the affirmative and the negat...

Forgot to comment on "ordinary speakers". This is an argument from popularity. Just because it is popular to use the word belief in the way that the m...

An appeal to tradition? Simple observations of the world will tell you that this is no longer true. Though I am sure that this is still the accepted d...

A good deal is known through science, and more is being discovered all the time. Given an effectively infinite amount of time to study these subjects,...

Sorry got distracted again. The fact that you are already persuaded demonstrates the power of the decimation of facts throughout the population you ar...

^^^ Editors not at bottem^^^

I did not say that. I said that facts do not require belief: they can be practically applied. I don't think that the epistemological field is as unifi...

You are working with an old definition of knowledge. Currently there is only one universally acknowledged method for the acquisition and categorizatio...

I am finished looking 180 Proof. I didn't find anything else that I thought was worth responding to. I am not trying to be mean here, score points, or...

Found it! Sorry that took so long. Unexpected IRL distractions. "God" is a malleable philosophical argument. The things that are ascribed to any entit...

Sorry will respond later. Right now I'm doing 180 Proof. I'm taking my time to, doing other things also, so may be a while.

Facts do not REQUIRE belief. They can be practically applied in reality. But yes you are correct one can believe facts. There is nothing stopping anyb...

Can you give me a page number. Yes I am good at comprehends.

You have evidence for the nonexistence of god! I got to see this.

If it is not a "blind guess", present your evidence and we will resolve the mater.

Again, we will try another approach. While you are technically correct, and can believe in everything you have listed there, this is not how the human...

Let me put it another way then. None of these things you have listed here require Belief. Their existence is fact. They are objectively real. They are...

I don't see how that is any different than what I said.
