Four Thought
The BBC has good radio series as with Four Thought and Moral Maze. They provoke controversy which is needful in a responsible-altruist society. But that is not the same as the alternative form of ‘free’ society, in which everyone is treated as entirely autonomous and morally responsible. The example being a lady who considered women have a right over their own bodies, such that they should have pregnancies and abortions at will according to their own unimpeachable moral views. In a responsible-altruist society the foetus and developing individual must have the protection of society, providing strict guidelines. If everyone is morally responsible – rather than responsible morally – then we need no police or courts.

Re: Four Thought
if everyone would only religiously and slavishly obey these "moral" guides to control their actions...
which "moral" guide? never mind the fact that ethical egoism is a perfectly legitimate moral system
who needs freedom? the state overlords need your compliance
utopia on the horizon...

Re: Four Thought
As a ratio of time-segment/total time, one of five receives less attention, i.e., more distraction, than one of three. Zero of all, such as the experienced void when awaiting the mot juste, results in timeless expectation.RCSaunders wrote: ↑Sun Jun 27, 2021 3:06 pm What's the difference between, "Three Thought," "Four Thought," and "Five Thought?"
The navigational sixtant says: None/All-Time is not timeless.
