Yes, but not nonsensical. No, they don't, If I commit a fallacy then I'm misguided, not irrational. Assessing accordingly to reason and logic somethin...
But it does have sense, irrationality is indeed charming. Sure, argument implies rationality but irrationality is not meaningless and contradictory, y...
Philosophy is about making sense of the world, not about seeking happiness. With his iconic statement, Socrates rejects the validity of everything he ...
I've just put forward an explanation on how irrational and dogmatic thinking may coexist with reasoning in people's minds, not on why there's no reaso...
Doesn't follow. That's my main problem with your reasoning: you come up with unfounded imperatives. We can owe none our existence because it is not re...
Dawkins didn't propose the theory of evolution, if you didn't know. He got no results from that particular endeavour thus he wasted his time. I never ...
No, you mean they always invent reasons why something can't be done, coming up with constraints they're not actually under. Your rhetoric suggests tha...
Oh, I think I got it. You want me to refute a statement that lacks falsifiability and that begs the question. Your request itself is irrational but I ...
What do Dawkins' statements have to do with the theory of evolution? Why? Newton tried to scientically extract prophecies from the Bible and ended up ...
Humanity's survival is off the point, I think the proper question would be: "Could individuals thrive without understanding that which would enable th...
That can be explained through compartmentalization: they could have separated their academic pursuits from their beliefs, basically being disingenuous...
If we don't recognize the constraints we're under, positive thinking can lead us so far. We can better our condition with that type of thinking, sure,...
I get it, you blame depression solely on external locus of control. But I argue that internal locus of control is in no way better, it gives you the f...
Political persuasion is considered evangelism by the site guidelines. But I'm really not the one to judge what would constitute an offense on this sit...
You're right, I meant patriarchy, sorry. I dare you to come up with something to support that claim of yours, like an argument. For example, just beca...
An illness is a medical condition, depression is a mental disorder, mental disorders are not medical conditions. Clear enough? Maybe I should be strai...
Their opinions are worthless and they know it. What they basically mean is: "Don't bother me with your philosophy nonsense!". So he's not going to rea...
I see you've embraced your monster which was definitely not the point. I'm not arguing depression isn't real, I'm arguing depression isn't an absolute...
And that's what Americans.. no, everyone should manage! Not anger or aggression, those are reasonable in the right context. But, of course, ignorance ...
I answered that in your last thread: through reflection. I don't know who fooled you into taking meds for depression but you're the one complaining it...
That was the point, one can't sense death! You can argue one can at the moment one dies but witnessing someone 'not waking up' and 'go away' is not it...
Right now? No thanks! But is death real? We use logic to determine what's real and fearlessness is the logical stance in the face of the uncertainty o...
As in having no motivation to wake-up for days? Sure. I don't care for what legacy I leave behind, I really see no point in this 'post death concern'....
Talking about correlation, I'm the under the impression that consumerism is at its height and that people now demand that which there's no genuine off...
You're not wrong, I never think that I am but I sometimes still doubt that I'm right. What I'm saying is that I'm not really avoiding confirmation bia...
Accept it, not embrace it, basically Jung. To me suicide has never occured. I think I'm just too arrogant to even consider it. Jung argues that serpen...
