I remembered [will have to search for them] here were times where you condemned my views as "nonsense" not sure you use the term meaningless, but you have used its synonyms.Peter Holmes wrote: ↑Sat Apr 03, 2021 11:05 amStraw man. I don't think non-factual assertions are meaningless nonsense - and I don't suppose the others you libel do either.Veritas Aequitas wrote: ↑Sat Apr 03, 2021 5:50 am The reason why you cannot understand my views is because you are ignorant and is dogmatically stuck with the bastardized philosophies of the logical positivists and classical analytical philosophers.
Note:
Note the above views had been crushed long time ago and yet you are still a stooge of the LPs in the above stance.
- The members of the Vienna Circle—which included Otto Neurath, Rudolf Carnap and Kurt Gödel—did not all agree in detail but they shared a conviction that all philosophical metaphysics and most ethics to date was not so much wrong as meaningless nonsense.

Point is you, Peter, Sculptor, Pantflasher had been brainwashed into the LPs paradigm and will spontaneously deem moral realists claims as meaningless nonsense. You will suffer a cold turkey if you were to think otherwise.
As stated I am not expected you & et.al. to change your dogmatic views but I am merely using you & et. al. as sparring partners in a philosophical ring/arena purely for my own personal selfish interests.
Your failure to demonstrate that moral and aesthetic assertions are factual - so that there are moral facts - presumably leaves you with no choice but to straw-man those of us who expose your failure. After all, changing your mind isn't an option.
You may not be very conscious but the influence by the LPs and classical analytic philosophers is very subliminal.
I have already demonstrated there are moral facts a "1000" times, so I won't be bothered to repeat again and again.
In your present state, there is no way you will ever see that "500 pound gorilla" [justified true moral facts] in front of you. It is like the hardcore fundamentalist theists who will never ever understand the rational views of non-theists.
