To each other object. Space is, in such a metaphysic, composed entirely of relations between objects. Therefore, it could be argued that the objectual...
Guess it would depends on how many nuts it has. Also :" -"We need to pick up a new pope in case the Exxon-Monsanto thing falls off" -"Why not just use...
Do you have a legitimate issue that you could meaningfully engage by walking in the street naked? I mean, you mentioned MRA, so I could just assume th...
I'll also have you know that it is legal for women to walk around in public topless in Ontario. Literally the only good thing about that shitty Provin...
Exactly. And on top of that, the markers that we used to identify "race" in humans do not have in any way the same level of consistency that we find i...
I wanted to give Henri a chance to redeem the OP. Once that ship sailed, I did flag quite a few troll posts. The rest is up to the mods to decide what...
This post's underlying narrative is that slut shaming is fine and should not be thematized as a gender issue. If that dissolve Western culture (which ...
Jesus fracking Christ, the hell is with you? This is the use I'm refering to:" If membership criteria are now to be watered down, because it is consid...
Yes, but when you say that dirt is dirty, I have no way of knowing if you refer to the concept "dirt" or the individual "dirt". Frege was clearly not ...
This is ridiculous. Race, because this concept is a fuzzy amalgamation of different traits, is simply not a useful term in modern biology. If it is no...
That you think "white" corresponds to a race, any more than "European", shows exactly why race should no longer be used as a concept. To be usable, th...
Race is then a heuristic concept ; it is because it is useful to refer to genetic predisposition that we refer to race. Better would be to simply deno...
Race as a category is useful for selection and breeding. As those concepts are not applied to human reproduction (unless you are gross), there are no ...
Again : can you provide a few examples of such arguments, and on what universal basis rationality can be said to be missing in these. Because, again, ...
This is a reductio ad absurdum from your argument. The move to necessitate the miraculous from the mundane leads us naturally to assume the errors of ...
Well, that's a reversal of your own argument about atheist. By the same principle that would warrant the acceptation of your statement, you should acc...
This is not an argument. This is an insult. No, because they do not constitute an argument. That is not an argument, that is an opinion, Then what are...
Heard less than an hour ago at work : P1 There is life on Earth. P2 Earth is made of dirt (works better in French, where it's literally Earth is made ...
And, by the end of this post, you still haven't provided an example. Only more contentless ad hominem affirmations. It's people like you who gives us ...
To maintain "a network of processes of production (transformation and destruction) of components which: (i) through their interactions and transformat...
58% may be a bit harsh. On the other hand, 65% would be generous. Listen to what your evaluator said. Less exposition, simpler sentence structures, an...
A colour realist, someone who would say that "the rose is red" states a true fact about the object rose, would very likely say that a colour is a non-...
Thank you so much for putting the effort into it. (Y) So, I'm sure anyone should realize that 97.73/2.27 shows that, in some meaningful way, gender is...
They certainly have a way to hit you where it hurts : "There is no “environmental catastrophe.” The catastrophe is the environment itself. The environ...
Because meaningful relations between the constituency and its representatives are otherwise reduced to voting and 2 minutes addresses before the Parli...
You could replace "thing" with "variable" and the question still stands. However, you could resolve it by simply saying that "thing" is purely an obje...
The point is null if it's trying to base itself on heavy outliers. No one in their right mind dispute the possibility that women commits a gun rampage...
It is yet illegal for multinationals to donate money to political parties in the States (and most legislatures). Legal personhood is a fiction which h...
Yes and no, because that would depend on what form your ontology allows properties to take. I could argue toward a very desolate ontology, where only ...
