Example already given of European Royal families. Also Pharoahs of Egypt, and anthropologically look up endogamy. But in animal breeding the examples are legion. My point was with reference to the modern era in relation to humans-in-general who has the full knowledge of the negative consequences of...

My point is that you haven't actually read chapter 1. He doesn't merely attack mind-independence. He attacks the either-or mindset too. He attacks the problem; as well as the solution to the problem; and even the approach to preventing the problem which causes its own set of problems. Rorty is an a...

Do you have reference to support humans-in-genera l has been using 'incest' as a tool for something positive or progress? Example already given of European Royal families. Also Pharoahs of Egypt, and anthropologically look up endogamy. But in animal breeding the examples are legion. My point was wi...

What you are proposing is driven by evil impulses which are grounded in immutable religious doctrines. There is no problem in the world that the government won't make worse. After 250 000 C14 years of staying out of private family matters, the ruling mafia in the West decided that they would hencef...

The first chapter of the book is literally called "The invention of the mind". And you continue to speak about mind-dependence and mind-independence. You continue to speak of the internal/external world distinction using different words but exactly the same conception. Tell me you didn't ...

Your religion [relative to others] as I have shown is inherently evil and barbaric and should be weaned off in the future. Not before barbarizing the ruling mafia first! I want barbaric reprisals against any ruling mafia that stick their noses into private family matters. Barbarism is not a bug in ...

You are very ignorant of your own self and own human nature but rather focus on religious beliefs which are not true of reality and human nature. Before the French Revolution, the goal was to obliterate the Catholic Church and its class-based privileges, and the tool was atheism. As I have pointed ...

There is a big difference between acknowledging that an outlier set of rules exist and personally agreeing with that set of rules. I agree if one is merely discussing and giving their view on the difference stances of morality then they are not adopting any particular moral stance. But in the conte...

Godelian harped and dogmatically insisted on Peano & & Dedekind's Axioms as Platonic realities independent of the human conditions, but actually Peano & & Dedekind's Axioms Ultimately Experienced, i.e. contingent to the human conditions. I reject Psychologism as an ontology for math...

hasty posting ..TBA

Non-theism was there long long ago Yes, but atheism did not exist as a mass movement before the French Revolution. It is the Catholic Church that created this challenge. The Catholic Church were so obnoxious that a frontal attack on their teachings was indeed necessary. The privileges of the noble ...

How? Think exactly about the form of words, then check my response to them. And now tell me HOW. I agree with your point in general. My point is heamophilia is not solely due to incest. It happens as long as two recessive genes got together regardless of whether it in incest situation or not. At la...
