Muhammad showed what to do with people who didn't consider him divine. There were three poets in his time who criticized him, so he had them assassinated. Not something Jesus would have done.

I looked back, looks like Sculptor almost identifies as a Palestinian, and his/her feelings were hurt. And I guess it's rather easy to accuse someone of hate speech when one takes a side in that conflict too strongly and is too vocal about it. You mean the side that says burning babies alive was ju...

Mate, in the entire existence I have been on this forum only one person to my knowledge has been banned - a meth head me n Rick thinks.. Sculptor couldn't get a ban of a Jihadist that threatened to kill anyone that posted against LGBTQM - he has as much sway with the powers that be as a gnat on the...

Nah, Rick has emailed me a couple of times about my language - mainly where it is in thread titles - I apologise and amend the titles. (Also I am one of the rare people on the forum that pay a subscription to support FREE SPEECH.) Rick's a good chap and I am glad there is this outlet for 'intellige...

Of course she is VT. Don't know how Sculptor got her banned when Sculptor can be the most vulgar person here.

That's just semantics. Kant came up with empirical realism vs transcendental realism, and both of those views are wrong. Mind-dependent reality is wrong, mind-independent reality is wrong, transcendental idealism is wrong. Indirect realism isn't really realism, it would be better if it wasn't called...

I think Kant would be an indirect realist too today. Even someone as smug as he wouldn't be able to ignore the mountain of evidence for this view.

I think IC has the potential to be intelligent. His trouble is that his final flield of reference; his final arbiter; and rational measure is a fantasy world. When you rely on an imaginary friend the only evidence for is a book which ranges between 3000 years old and 1300 years old wirten by dispar...

(who knows, maybe you'll finally win a game) No longer interested. You're no fun, do I have to explain it all myself? :) You see, an ad hom fallacy is when "you irrelevantly attack the person or some aspect of the person". Now the lack of the moral sense in Cluster B personality types is ...

So you're missing on every cylinder. I can't help you. Ad hom Not ad hom . Based on your responses. Were they sincere? If they were, then the evidence is in. But I can't waste any more time with you. It's clear you're not up to the game. Nice that you are congratulating yourself, but first you have...

No, it means something other than the way you're using it. Here: https://www.txst.edu/philosophy/resources/fallacy-definitions/Ad-Hominem.html So it's you who are wrong, and you who are out of step with "others"...which, by the way, is another fallacy called "bandwagon fallacy"....
