Re: Faith: Difficult but Necessary?

Why "shouldn't" eternal peace exist? What's ever wrong with peace? Is there such a thing as too peaceful or not enough strife? Pretty much this: Becuz in perfect peaceful circumstances there can be no improvement... becuz there is no conflict, nothing struggling. Question is, is improveme...

Re: Incest Deterrence & Morality is Objectivity

Amazing Fact..

The genome variability of the Cheatah is so small that scientist have suggested that at the end of the last ice-age the entire species was represented by a single breeding pair.

So much for the problems of incest.

Re: How Can We Achieve World Peace?

A college professor was "arrested" yesterday by armed men dressed combat style wearing ski masks.
Apparently they were a private security firm ordered by the college authorities.

His "crime"? Wanting a ceasefire in Gaza..

America has lost the plot.

Re: Adv of Moral Objectivity over Others

Here is an example [re incest], why Moral Objectivity has the advantage over other moral views. As stated, the inbreeding avoidance instinct is an evolutionary default, i.e. evolved over time. False. No such things exists. There is no mechanism in animals that allow them to discriminate and coitus ...

Re: Incest Deterrence & Morality is Objectivity

Actually, the notion that incest avoidance results from the biological risks of inbreeding is dubious. First of all, the risks of inbreeding are relatively slight, especially in primitive cultures in which the infant mortality rate is 50% any way. More important, a common marriage rule in many simp...

Re: How to be a Moral Realist

Why the diversion? I have already given 'proof' to establish morality is objective as qualified to the moral element, the "oughtnot_ness to torture and kill babies for pleasure'. I have also stated the above can potentially be confirmed by science [not now, but in the near future]. Re Infantic...
