I have it in my huge backlog now. Looking forward to playing it. Thank you for your recommendation. Definitely went up my list now. As others have men...

I know there's a story. Just like there is a story behind Joe #52. That has nothing to do with my original point. If there are people that don't subsc...

So if I actively make my life goal to make the world a worse place, that also fits under that perspective? Or people that wake up ready to kill for "f...

Every generation has been fooled to a degree. That is the nature of hierarchy, and most invite, even endorse that structure. When haven't a small mino...

That isn't the argument. It is that the information was withheld to push back the confirmation. That all comes down to the "virtue" of Senator Feinste...

@"Dfpolis" Everything @"Rank Amateur" said. I don't consider someones honor a worth argument most of the time. Especially when I doubt you'll give the...

Yes. I'm glad it's happening this way. We will see how it develops. Hope they bring in Mark Judge as well. Could help get closer to truth. Only when t...

They're delaying it a week for an investigation. No more, no less. Perfect. Hopefully we find out more and we can move on. Thank you Senator Flake.
September 28, 2018 at 17:58
Because there is no guarantee it would take that long. All you have is their word. Which in politics is useless (especially when you don't trust the o...

Maybe he doesn't want his nomination to be pushed back and then post midterms voted out? Maybe that's a concern? Both sides would agree to temporary r...

It would also be a psychological question. Children are immature and shortsighted. Even more so if they are intoxicated. If they made a mistake would ...

That's what I'm talking about. This is obviously a situation where those rules aren't meant to address. His removal or dismissal from the seat should ...

I was fairly certain it might have been to find the truth at some point. But to me the biggest tell was the insistence on the delay of the vote and th...
September 28, 2018 at 14:48
THIS. A million times over. Can someone explain to me why this cannot be an option for either side? Why in the world is that not being suggested by an...

And of all of that variety we only see one species with extremely high adaptability and cognition like humans. I wasn't denying the ability for variat...

Organisms need ways to deal with overheating. Humans have that while also being able to move during peak hunting periods. Humans are also the best lon...

THIS. NOW! :grin: Many things (like that) make the question fun to think about (at least for a bit), but not very useful or that feasible. What pH lev...
August 21, 2018 at 21:22
I find it very unlikely something like Humans would have evolved without the extinctions of the dinosaurs. What type of reptilians do they even sugges...

@"Harry Hindu" Hmmm... Well, there are a lot of benefits to giving up the standard conventions. Much of the interplay between the sexes and the advant...

August 20, 2018 at 06:02
Although I disagree with @"Terran Imperium" and find them a lot less open then they claim to be, I don't think calling them those things will change a...
August 20, 2018 at 05:59
I agree with what you are saying with regard to sex and am actually someone that thinks the idea of gender should be done away with. We are not at tha...
August 19, 2018 at 21:32
But gender is not sex so it would not relate to the biological side of things. Gender is about the "performance", the gender roles we take on, not abo...
August 19, 2018 at 15:39
Also, please reference @"Baden" comment (below) on the first page where he implied the same thing. If they aren't necessary then we might be in a lot ...

You brought up China. I think the one big flaw that democracy has in continuing as an ideology is the threat countries like China bring. Democracy mak...

@"Harry Hindu" Yes, that is true, but them not understanding their condition doesn't mean they are necessarily wrong in what they experience. Fair eno...

@"Terran Imperium" What do you mean do I understand now? I gave the definitions. haha Sex is the biological and gender is everything else outside of t...
August 18, 2018 at 15:08
You still have not explained the cultural aspect of sex (aka gender). You just described different types of physiology that influence behavior. But hu...
August 18, 2018 at 15:00
True enough... That reflects my feelings towards asking him. I'm concerned he'll think I'm invalidating him. What if they don't know the answers? That...
August 18, 2018 at 04:01
It definitely does drastically effect the roles we play/played but those roles are much more fungible at this point. They may not have been before, bu...

I have a good friend that considers himself transgender. I was always wondering how to ask him about those feelings without it coming off as derogator...

Gender: the state of being male or female (typically used with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones). Sex: either ...
August 18, 2018 at 03:26
Please review feminist literature and then form your opinion on the idea of gender. Gender is not being "redefined", it is/was already defined but you...

A few questions: Are you calling them delusional in their transgender-ism or in their support of the concept of gender through their transgender-ism? ...

I fail to understand how something being a Complex adaptive system takes it away from being a cause and effect system. The reasoning still seems to st...

Hello and welcome to The Philosophy Forum! Hope you like it here! If you have any questions feel free to ask! : )

:cool: haha So true! :up:
August 13, 2018 at 21:11
I see. I was more wondering why it took so long for God to realize things were going down the wrong path. Since, as you mentioned, every person born u...
August 13, 2018 at 21:09
THANK YOU. haha Finally someone mentions that. After reading both I always felt the same way. The power of our weakness for pleasure is much more cont...

Does that forgiveness extend to the hundreds of thousands of years prior to Christ's birth (as far as Homo sapiens has existed) or is it only afterwar...
August 05, 2018 at 05:21
Ah, I see. : )
August 05, 2018 at 05:11
Well... That is a peculiar way to define it in my opinion. Theocracy is meant to refer to the forms of government that existed like the definition I g...

Yes, it is a prisoner's dilemma, which makes it difficult to go for an armistice even with the most rational agents on both sides. I don't think that ...
August 05, 2018 at 04:02
Yes, it is a necessarily evil. If you don't have one then the other sides that do take you out. So basically the prisoner's dilemma. The death penalti...

Theocracy is defined as the rule of government by priests that act as a conduit for God or a god. That form of government has existed and still does. ...
July 31, 2018 at 02:12
Then there would be no use for the word, as no governments has ever been able to meet that specification for a theocracy. A theocracy is a government ...

Many African and Middle eastern countries could be defined as theocracies. It demonstrates that people have choices. Also, freedom of choice is not fr...
