Kant's Morality & Ethics is Not Deontological
In an OP I stated Kant's Morality & Ethics is not deontological. In this case, deontological as it is commonly understood at present by the majority which is taken to meant strict compliance with rules like those from God. There are a wide range of meaning from the history of the term 'deontolog...

Re: Is morality objective or subjective?
To repeat, in my opinion, much of the analytic movement constituted a wrong-turn to language. Because what do analytic philosophers analyse? Thought, ideas, concepts? And, if so, are those things amenable to analysis in the way that physical reality is amenable to scientific analysis? And if so, wh...

Re: Against Facts by Arianna Betti
Btw, at present I am reading the book 'Against Facts' by Arianna Betti who argued your concept of what is fact is a sham. Nuff said. Deep incomprehension. Of what do reality and its 'entities' (revealing obfuscation) consist? I have read the preface and part of the intro. At present just take note,...

Re: What could make morality objective?
This is staggeringly stupid. Suppose there were no humans, but there was an alien (ie non-human) species somewhere in the universe. Those aliens would experience and know reality. Would reality then be 'not independent' from the 'alien conditions'? Or suppose there were no life, sentient or otherwi...

Re: Incest Deterrence & Morality is Objectivity
:D :D :D :D It is very evident and testable. Any humans who is fed excess calories especially from carbs will turn out to be like these people. It is also evident these people will suffer from one or a combination of the critical illness. This is evident of objectivity, i.e. independent of any subj...

Re: Beginner's Guide to Kant's Moral Philosophy
This leads us to the categorical imperative . The categorical imperative just means the thing that you have to do all the time regardless of circumstance. It's an imperative an order which applies categorically. I ought never to act except in such a way that I could also Will that my maxim should be...

Re: the end of philosophy?
............ the question now becomes, what is left of philosophy if we take away representations that is, today anyway, the very heart of philosophy? Kropotkin The term 'philosophy' is a very loose term and had been bastardized with academic philosophy. It is also stated there are as many definiti...

Re: What could make morality objective?
Here's your claim: If there were no humans to experience and observe reality, there would be no reality - no universe. Nuff said. Your response is too shallow and narrow. How can reality be experienced, realized and known if there are no humans? Note whatever the answer you provide can only be answ...

Re: Incest Deterrence & Morality is Objectivity
Wonderful gaslighting. THe complete reverse is the truth. My moral philosophy is definitely inclusive and more understanding of the rich diversity of human culture. Yours is utterly without hope of understanding. And that is so obvious since you have failed to establish a single moral rule with you...

Re: Against Facts by Arianna Betti
Here is a summary from AI re Against Facts by Arianna Betti; Compositional facts are believed to be real objects in the world that make sentences true. Betti argues that they are not necessary because relations themselves can unify a sentence’s terms. For example, the fact that loves relates a and b...
