Sure you can. Just try a little harder.

Rocks, stones, cats and dogs are outside the scope of human nature. As such, it is very silly in this particular case to conflate human-nature with non-human nature to counter the related argument re human-natured moral obligations. Discuss?? Views?? - Cats, dogs and humans share a lizard brain. - ...

I'll probably never really understand how on Earth a philosophy forum derived from a reputable, respectable philosophy magazine can devolve into posts like this. And, perhaps, why they are tolerated? Now, over at ILP, they have this thing called "the rant room". It's a place where declama...
