Good, any examples of actual social media posts that utilise this? Okay, this is now the norm on the Philosophy forum, I guess. I actually enjoyed lur...
Go to academia and workplace in Western countries and try arguing in favour of any right wing policy. So? That has nothing to do with the right wing. ...
Not that the current climate facilitates any form of discussion on the topic, and indeed if there was at least a grain of truth to the leftist narrati...
I agree with the comment generally. We definitely should focus on what is in our control. However, what I personally see as an issue is the ideologica...
I would say generational differences play into this a lot, too. For example, age of an "average" Facebook user is 25 - 34. It was created only with in...
I was wondering about a similar question, but in general context of internet communication. Generally, how can we see intentions in chats, forums, com...
I would agree, but here I would make a distinction between practical philosophy for life, and philosophy as an intellectual pursuit. The latter, in my...
Didn't want to start a separate thread on this as it's just a few scattered thoughts. I was wondering if someone actually found that reading more phil...
I'm not sure what you're seeking to find out by this. Especially by choosing to reinforce or take up an alternative for male dominant stereotype. Who ...
There is a fundamental conflict of interests. Students go to colleges because they are told that that will help them get a job. The underlying notion,...
Do you mean that the spiritual does not exists and that there is only our unconscious processes that we call spiritual? Wouldn't that be completely fo...
I don't think the unconscious is 'created'. I find that in the same way that our conscious mind works as a mechanism, our unconscious mind works as a ...
Yeah, and that 'acting' hasn't changed in the slightest, which is why I am against the notion that there is any real progress. I agree with mysteries ...
It pretty much seems that way too many classes of people don't know what they're doing. Science is an example of that, too. I think this is where the ...
Yeah, I agree. I would like to see more humbleness in that regard, too. Firstly, there is a certain limit of our understanding, and secondly, I think ...
I do believe in miracles and in the supernatural. For a reason that may appear a bit too prosaic. I don't believe that just because there is science, ...
Countries such as Canada and US have never directly experienced socialism and communism in same forms as could be seen in other countries. Political a...
How do you define same opportunities? There is only so many jobs, so many opportunities, so many chances. How can you ever claim that there is a same ...
The problem is also that the life in a society (or what's left of the society really) is often portrayed as a constant competition going to the point ...
I would agree with this. The difference in interest comes largely when there is an ideological difference among groups in a society. That'a when it be...
Perhaps some instances of women protesting against men can be explained by an irrational discrimination which has nothing to do with the actual traits...
I agree. It just seems to me that someone constantly tries to push women to earn same amount as men and have same goals :-} As if there weren't other ...
You can never be 100% sure about any result. The fact that they will decide to be competitive, doesn't mean they would automatically achieve desired r...
Society and work may have been different at those times. I would wonder if those who wanted equal pay would still agree with it if they saw the conseq...
A gap would exist if: I work in a factory making an x amount of components. You make the same amount of components in the same time. We get paid diffe...
Agree. It is just the current climate that I am in, and there is undeniably a reason why that climate is the way it is. This is closely tied to it, bu...
I don't take the report seriously, so.. Will the report still be held with the same respect in 20 years? I doubt it. If all the nonsense with the "gap...
No. There is no gap. There is simply different amount of many being paid for different work that brings different value. Is it so hard to get out of: ...
Does it really take a tremendous genius to understand that companies treat their employees as investments, and have every right to do so? Does it real...
There are many reasons why men bring more value to the company. Oddly enough, these will not be included in your data because no one wants to talk abo...
Oh, well. It exists for them as a reality so that they have something to complain about. It's easier than competing and trying to improve one's situat...
No, don't know who that guy is. I do agree, however, that if other variables are included, then there is no gap. The point being that if someone says ...
I'm singling it out in this case because it is connected to the whole movement of victims of so-called discrimination, and current climate that can be...
Would you mind expanding a bit on that? I've read Tao Te Ching quite a long time ago, but recently I got into reading a book on differences between We...
I hope it's okay to ask here. I mostly read books on psychology. Currently going through work of Sigmund Freud. Also - Stephen Grosz - The Examined Li...
I will link my answer with this: From what you say, it is reasonable to assume that life, in your view, has a meaning. If it had no meaning, then ever...
That's because of the nature of philosophy itself. The fact that there is still discussion to this day about Ancient Greek philosophical concepts does...
>:O I didn't ask to see the world through your eyes. You might as well just say that you don't know what the difference between empiricism and metaphy...
The point is that someone has had access to that information via empirical evidence. Someone could see it or hear about it. Same does not apply to the...
I stand corrected on this point. I'm, however, moving to how can it be proved that ''X is unknowable.'' At certain time, someone had access to the fac...
It still doesn't seem to be a valid position to me, to be, for example agnostic about God, rather than saying that I'm not yet sure about the answer, ...
I wouldn't agree that the world needs to be redeemed. However, I don't think that we as human should think on this level. If a couple wants to have ch...
All those arguments have to start with philosophy as philosophy, unlike empirical sciences, can define God and look at the most basic nature of existe...
The statement - ''God's existence can never be proven by logic'' is a logical conclusion. I'm not saying that the answer to the question of whether Go...
