The world is in a difficult place right now. What can each of us do to keep it from teetering off its axis? Thoughts? Suggestions? Understand what the truth is and find consensus in the truth. The actual Truth is found, and known, through consensus. See, only when all agree, then that is when the i...

Then you a created a bunch of exceptions. A so-called 'bunch of exceptions' to 'what', exactly? Other'# 'bunches of exceptions'? Or, something else? So you no longer have one unbeatable argument. Why, what is needed, exactly, for a so-called 'unbeatable argument'? And you can always claim that nobo...

Notes: KIV I have argued [elsewhere] why the following moral elements are objective; 1. Oughtnot_ness to kill humans 2. Oughtnot_ness to torture and kill babies for pleasure https://forum.philosophynow.org/viewtopic.php?t=42185 3. Infanticide https://forum.philosophynow.org/viewtopic.php?p=707584#p...

As can be clearly seen here, some people imagine some things, and then speak as though what they have imagined to be true is actually true.

Self-delusion was far more common, back in the days when this was being written.

And this is the very reason why I said and wrote, 'When the words 'free-will' refer to, The ability to choose, then ...'. I used the 'when' word for the very specific reason that words can have very different meanings. Some words even have exact opposite meanings, just to confuse things up more, fo...

Your opponents simply adopt a different meaning of free-will. 'Adopting', having, and using different meanings for different words, as I have been pointing out and saying here is WHY you adult human beings have been arguing, bickering, in conflict, and even killing each other for thousands upon tho...

It is an absolutely impossibility to make a choice upon something not yet known, obviously. They are not claiming that. you seem to be missing or misunderstanding what I was saying and claiming here. There is no 'they', as in any specific group. Absolutely every human being can only make a choice u...

When the words 'free-will' refer to, The ability to choose, then both free will and determinism play more or less an equal part, in Life. See, everyone is completely free to make decisions, but all can only make a decision upon a limited amount of choices, which all of, it could be said and argued,...

Morality begins with the act. I'm sorry -- I don't understand this claim. It might be right, in some sense, but it's too vague. Can you clear it up for me? Moral behaviours are necessary, and are not fabricated by men, nor socially engineered. Okay; that means you're a moral objectivist. I can acce...

It is funny to watch and observe just how many people completely dismiss me here when I say I have the irrefutable facts or Truths. And, what makes this more funnier to play out is these people did this without ever challenging nor questioning me. Can you state your irrefutable facts about free-wil...

Once again... I'm sorry, Age...Given your history here, I just don't care enough about your opinion to be bothered. Carry on. I know you will. you can try to lie and deceived your way out of here. But you will not fool all of the readers all of the time. you may well want to claim that " relig...

Once again... I'm sorry, Age...Given your history here, I just don't care enough about your opinion to be bothered. Carry on. I know you will. But there was only a clarifying question, which you are, obviously, not brave enough to answer. There is also the fact of why you are the way you here.

Not that you would be brave enough to clarify here but remember it is you who keeps claiming that God is male gendered. So, is this a 'religious' construct or the actual reality, itself? God used to be a guy with a wife. Then God became non-binary. Is this what "immanuel can" used to clai...

Whatever "jiggery pockery and nonsense" IC has ... The idea that God can know the future without the future being predetermined is pretty common in religion and Christianity. But what is 'common' certainly does not mean that 'it' is even remotely close to the actual Truth of things. Sure....
