Re: Thinking about murder
This is very Kantian and precisely what I hate about Kantism. "He should do this for this reason, not for that feeling, and he should stay away from doing it for that consideration and not because of his fear or his urges." This is f-u-c-c-ed. I am with Hume who said humans operate on the...

Re: "Murder is easy champ"
Only for nutjobs. For non-nutjobs: it's hard (as it should be). Well, I was talking about it in a technical sense, though, I wouldn't agree that it's a good thing that someone wouldn't be able to kill someone else, though you didn't say that. As it just makes you weak and incapable. One should reje...

Re: The Limits of Morality
If this wasn't a philosophy forum I would be sure I was getting trolled but I've met enough people here who have such insane ideas that I believe you actually think you're in the right here.
I've had enough.
Good day.

Re: The Limits of Morality
So congratulations on your meaningless non-contradictory position If I am getting ahead of myself it's only because I trust that you say what you mean lol. A position is a stance/opinion, needlessly to say, it must be intelligible. Ad hominem. I do get bored when people look for logical fallacies, ...

Re: Thinking about murder
Murder is easy champ, look at school shootings, the lowest of the low in the social hierarchy who were too cowardly to stand up for themselves unless they've got a gun in their hand. The serial rapists and killers who long to dominate others but can't do it with their wits or talents and must resort...

Re: The Limits of Morality
I have no idea how to assert or verify the truth-value of this claim. So congratulations on your meaningless non-contradictory position. Excuse me? I only endeavoured to show you a non-contradictory position because you said there was no such thing! This position is necessarily subjective. There is...

Re: Books are meaningless
Books which aren't read... still have meaning to the writer. Also, the mere existence of books can have meaning to some, like "I'm not much of a book reader" or "I haven't studied the subject" in reference to not reading any books on the subject. And for an individual who has not...

Re: The Limits of Morality
All positions are contradictory because all language is recursive. Humans are contradictions. By what criteria do you evaluate a position as being "flawed" or "sound" and why Not sure where you fit into all this Logik but you've come to join in the nonsense? "All positions ...

Re: The Limits of Morality
I will once again advise that if you speak with a goal of conversation or communication, perhaps a little more effort into speaking plain English? Grand gestures and expressions are counterproductive. You speak more nonsense frankly, I don't wish to argue about irrelevant things like whether love is...

Re: Which Ultimate Truths Can Be Proven "Beyond a Reasonable Doubt"?
I need to believe in something so that I may keep the truth in mind and follow true steps toward true success. Without these, I could be acting in a way that is self-defeating. Without the truth to guide me I feel like I am blindly blundering through life. =( So I am looking for useful ways to view...

Re: The Limits of Morality
I have presented no counter-argument to your ideas because when you say something like "morality is a means of being" it's just too stupid to listen to. You're talking about something biologically hardwired into humans through evolution and calling it a "means of being". Moral ac...

Re: Trust those who seek the truth doubt those who say they have found it
What is "the truth"? Every truth in the world? The answer to a question? You aren't being specific enough to comment.

Re: The Limits of Morality
I rarely take any interest in your posts Eodnhoj because as Charm said, it seems like you are more interested in overcomplicating things than actual philosophy. However, I will try to bring you back down to Earth, by presenting to you the limitations of humans instead of the limitations of morality....

Re: The Futurology of Fuckin' PC
Interesting idea. Without venturing too far into forbidden territory one thing that comes to mind is, at least in the U.S. the current administration’s suppression of information regarding the environment and terms that cannot be used. It's also probably pertinent to recognise that current leftist ...

Re: The Futurology of Fuckin' PC
PC is not just a left wing abuse Excellent arguments to demonstrate this fact although I think right-wing PC is not nearly as prevalent in the West outside of the US (although this is changing), it's still interesting to see how political expression on sensitive issues is responded to with thuggery...
