We need to establish a moral FSRC that has >90% of its input from the scientific FSRC.
In this case the moral FSRC can be rated at say 80/100.
And those numbers are pulled out of which orifice?

Re: Is Conservatism just NeoTraditionalism these days?

Who at this site are we supposed to consider a Conservative these days? I don't really see any. The central thesis of Conservatism - as I always understood it anyway - has been that our traditions and customs are not to be discarded without a care as though they never brought any value. Rather cust...

Re: Is Hegel Still Relevant?

Hi, I have read about the progression of consciousness through the various stages down to absolute Spirit, and I am baffled cause I see none of it in real life. Most of the people are stuck in their daily affairs and there is no hint of basic progress, let alone aiming at absolute knowledge. Anyone...

Re: What could make morality objective?

You claim to have set out 'the generally accepted criteria any rational person would readily accept' in assessing and comparing models of reality. I still feel it's worth noting that there is no rational person who accepts any of it. The only person who doesn't think it's entirely stupid is the one...

Re: Upcoming US Election

Well, whatever the case, it'd be nice if someone gets elected who can steer us all clear of WW3. We should never have given the Ukrainians weaponry. Ukraine would have been easily taken over without all the bloodshed. They'd be screwed politically, but at least Ukrainians would be alive today who a...

Re: What could make morality objective?

As such the resultant of the assessment would be acceptable by all rational people. Show me evidence where rational people has rejected the results of any such exercise on the excuse of circularity from traditional logic. If you don't agree, give a list of FSRC that could be more credible and objec...

VA has a reading deficit

........ That's all there is to the matter. I have now explained what Boyd was saying in the passage you took to be describing an argument that I am lacking cognitive function. We now can see that mine is not the cognitive function that we ought to be questioning. I cannot see your point clearly if...

Unless you are able to find someting in Wittgenstein justifying your insane effort to list all the KFCs using a mega-bucket-KFC that sorts them all into a list of the credibles and allows you to "objectively" yet "mathematically" compare the practice of Numerology against that o...

Re: FDP has a Cognitive Moral Deficit in Morality

What chance? You are cherry picking but ignoring all the other related texts. What I have done is presenting the full s4.7 whereas you are merely checking on one paragraph which you had wrongly interpreted. Show me in the light of all the other passages prior and that followed, where I am wrong? I ...

I have presented the full S4.7, show in detail [not cherry pick] where I am wrong. Strawman. You are trying to be deceptive and bullshit. Boyd did not claim nor referred to 'brain damage' but merely "cognitive deficit". Simple common sense should tell you that what you have described is i...
