Replace postmodernism with modernism and you'll realize this has happened before. It's the same rhetoric as back then, on the interwebs now instead of...

They must think that living is a voluntary activity or, in other words, that (the capacity to) will precedes or transcends being alive. As I observed,...

All stemming from the overall freedom to violate the nation, as radical as that may get, though I would expect to not be able to go ahead and do purge...

* You may waste time or become distracted when you can't afford that. More like, privileged. Only those unmolested can properly engage their higher fa...

Oh c'mon, there's no way to conclude that Donald Trump uses ampersands with intent. Even the intent you mentioned is questionable (business-y?). I thi...

Slow down, I've barely made a few posts since a long time ago and pretty sure I've never presented myself as any kind of spiritual.

I still think you're just equating lifestyle with philosophy.

I agree, but you need to show where I did that. "Position statements" are ripe for the Socratic dialectic in which I engaged. I didn't even formulate ...

You're free to dismiss my personal impression (if I wasn't clear, that is that your analysis is excesive), that goes without saying, I'm not sure why ...

You're utterly mistaken about what an ad hominem is or that entry-level is of any derogatory nature is all I can say to you, except, I hope you don't ...

I advise you to learn to distance yourself from your beliefs & opinions so you stop seeing their rejections as personal attacks. I am truly an antagon...

Chill.

Or maybe you should look into what feminism is all about instead of assuming things and then request to be proven wrong. For example, I have recently ...

I have deduced that you're totally new on this board by observing the number of your posts as well as their entry level content. What I fail to unders...

I don't understand the purpose of this thread. Why does it matter how people classify any political system? You need to justify and frame your request...

You're reaching too far with this one. Careful or you'll look beyond pretentious.

Bah, please stop perpetuating this common modern misconception of equating philosophy with lifestyle, thank you!

Well then, I also can't disagree more, one thing is to claim that there's nothing independent to the world at large, no part independent in relation t...

I've just realized I've never heard any atheist address predestination when they talk about how God hardened the Pharaoh's heart in the Book of Exodus...

The same way we are getting suspicious of a hypothetical Multiverse, I guess, by observing anomalies in the structure of our cosmos, phenomena that se...

Odd, why isn't your amount of guilt predetermined as well? Is guilt an exception in this worldview?

I'd like to see this, people everywhere pausing and asking themselves "But is it moral?", but I don't, so your post seems to me to be just another ran...

It seems that would be me. But even so, I don't really have an idea on how I could properly contribute to this thread, if it even matters anymore. I h...

Why would I participate? This is not even a proper subject for a philosophical forum, maybe for a religious one. it's just people debating which denom...

That's not true, I'm full on aggressive! But yes, I'm bored, bored of worthless and off the point critiques like yours, not designed with any producti...

Terrapin never said he agrees with banning poor debaters.

I didn't think that either, I was just pointing the very irony of asking how to end stupid debates on a board that doesn't concern itself with promoti...

Yes, the threat of an ideocracy will be always there, that's what we should try to prevent.

Ban those that don't meet the criteria from participating in the debates. But not even this forum does that. For the so-called realistic solution, pop...

Oh, so the question was if I give a shit about foolishness? Then, of course yes, that affects everyone. I'm not sure what you're thanking me for thoug...

The demos are the people. No, I don't give a damn about the God conundrum, I just wish all this foolishness surounding it would stop already.

And why is Christian theocracy any better? In fact, why is any decision taken by the demos any better?

Why would I care which denomination will achieve religious monopoly? I don't even buy into religion.

All I can say is, so what? Why should I give a damn?

Because we must image it like that! I mean it contains the assumption that there's an obligation to answer in a certain way and so it restricts the an...

That's a loaded question.

Poor Job, tragic hero.

Let's put it differently: do you have any projection of yourself? Maybe God is the mental image of someone's hope and faith they view as necessary to ...

Huh?

Also, you gave no option for antitheists, how can we differentiate them from the nontheists?

No, why would that be the case? There's something called planning.

Yes, that's the last stage of moral development, at least according to Kohlberg. Don't confuse morality with legality. Laws enforce order, not the mor...

They're messy, they're not even fixed, they're not even clear. Why concern yourself with other fools? I'd argue that everything happens out of chance,...

I don't think that's how bias is defined: diverse ideas can be compatible and adherence to particular ideas can be uncontroversial. They're valuable b...

So liberals would prefer to expand values, rather than preserving them. I'm sorry, I really don't get why you conflate patriotism with nationalism, wh...

That's a serious allegation, please provide a basis for it.

I saw that but it doesn't make your poll valid. Other religion is still a religion, thus we can't have trustworthy results.

Your poll is faulty, you can't choose to skip the 2nd question. It should be dismissed altogether.

I don't get to have a specific question and my post read? Not cool.
