A humdrum!

Yes, in that how do they represent true state of affairs or not?
January 08, 2023 at 03:46
So, how do they obtain as either true or false?
January 08, 2023 at 03:41
Schadenfreude? I sneezed.
January 08, 2023 at 02:58
In terms of what is a moral statement a truth value? Further, what does it mean to say that it's not reducible to other sorts of judgements?
January 08, 2023 at 01:04
Sure, I'll tag along. Is that something you wanted to survey?

Idk, there were some members that seemed like it was just life giving them a hard time and just making some noise over it that got them banned. (Not v...

UNBAN ALL THE BANNED MEMBERS!!!111

I got lost a while ago. I thought the reading group ended with the mind-body problem...

Maybe time to grow some pigs and make farm money. Pigs are a great pets too.
January 07, 2023 at 20:24
Well, glad to see you alive and kickin.
January 07, 2023 at 20:23
Sorry about the issues, but nice to see you around.
January 07, 2023 at 20:09
Well, well, well, I don't think the OP could believe what happened.
January 07, 2023 at 02:49
It's painful to see these kind of threads...
January 07, 2023 at 00:30
Pigs just make some noise; but, they're really just harmless.

It never seemed to be an issue until, well never really. It's a community anyways.

Dang Kripke died last year, and now Harry Frankfurt is reaching that age... (93) Old guard is disappearing.

There's also "pighead". I think the Brits use it too with the Yankees.
January 05, 2023 at 19:54
I thought that the gist with Moore was in pointing out that the naturalistic fallacy constantly occurs when surveying what is "good".
January 05, 2023 at 18:17
I think you can be more direct and precise by stating the holidays we engage in and religion like Christmas, the new years resolutions we make, and Ha...

You can also find the story of Pinocchio as an interesting parable somewhat related to this thread.

It seems to me that the fantasy of a child is engendered by society nowadays with RPG games and all those first person games. I think the role of fant...
January 05, 2023 at 17:11
I would like to mention the role of fantasy and the inner child in the role of conflicting identities. It seems that the sublimination of fantasy occu...

Sounds like Wittgenstein in the Tractatus Logico Philosophicus... :smile:

The thought behind mentioning logotherapy would be for people to develop a healthy identity by finding meaningful jobs and activities in life, thus en...
January 04, 2023 at 23:37
Is this Erich Fromm? And if so, as I read most of the OP, is logotherapy a solution to our purposeless lives that we engender in modern society?
January 04, 2023 at 23:25
That's verging on the naturalistic fallacy.
January 04, 2023 at 21:37
Yes, I have heard this one. It's usually said, in the performative 'sweating like a pig'.

Is there a saying in Spanish that talks about the kindness or the big heart of a pig?
January 04, 2023 at 19:50
There's a lot to learn about us regarding our long relationship with pigs.
January 04, 2023 at 19:33
So, the axiology of good is what Moore advocated. I'd have to read about that... Got sources?
January 04, 2023 at 04:29
Yes.
January 04, 2023 at 01:53
Well, Moore provided the example of yellow existing at a certain wavelength for example. I think what one can call good is something like that, as a s...
January 04, 2023 at 01:14
I'm asking mainly, what constitutes labeling an act or deed as good, and how that qualifier arises in our description of ethics.
January 04, 2023 at 01:08
I started wallowing once I accepted life with depression... :ok:
January 03, 2023 at 23:00
I might just call myself Pig, in the future if the moderators start hating on Shawn.
January 03, 2023 at 22:58
Yes, those used to be my past identities. Willowz, was the one I became known as at the old forum. Posty Mc Postface was suggested by @"Michael" and s...

.@"Pregnant man"
January 03, 2023 at 03:03
Yes. I think it's true. What do you think about whether it's right or wrong and why?
January 03, 2023 at 02:18
So, what's the consensus of the good in ethics? Moore proposed a form of consequentialism in terms of the good. Do you agree with him?
January 03, 2023 at 01:50
Oh sorry, I misunderstood you. So, you say that it's dependent of the evaluative context. Do you have any criteria to propose? Mostly epistemic?
January 03, 2023 at 01:21
I think I can see what your saying. In that, treating good in the excluded of what is bad?
January 03, 2023 at 01:16
Assuming @"bert1" is a Kantian, does it follow that which is willed, is the good?
