RE: What would be an appropriate term of a gesture so profund that connects people? A philosophical approach.
Would you mind if I bundled together two comments? First one, why use a word like 'soul'? It carries a specific (although not entirely defined) supernatural meaning. When talking…

RE: The Alt-Wing Trolls Are Beginning To Use A New Coded Lexicon For Racial Slurs Online.
I'm appalled by the ignorance, hate and sheer stupidity demonstrated by these folks - supremacists, racialists, or whatever they like to call themselves. But I'm very, very…

RE: A mathematical explanation how voting third party in 2016 is the only vote that counts
Thanks for the article - I really enjoyed reading it. I have one problem with it though. You said one can't look beyond the voting statistics and tell from the absence of…

RE: Pokémon - my experience and its benefits
Great post! It seems few people who take themselves serious dare to say something nice about Pokémon. Babbling negative opinions and being cynical seem to be the easy way to deal…

RE: Psalm 37:4 "Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart"
Exodus 21:21 But if the slave recovers within a day or two (after a beating), then the owner shall not be punished, since the slave is his property .

RE: Arguments against objective morality
It's hard to come up with historical examples of something very bad that resulted in something very good. It might even be an impossibility, but let me propose a different look.…

RE: A corollary to Occam's Razor
Ah, yes, by turning the argument into a premise, you're effectively 'blackboxing' knowledge, so it doesn't get criticized. You're quite right. We could cite lots of examples…

RE: [PHILOSOPHY] Against Transhumanism
I was taking my breath to respond, but you did it before me. I wouldn't be so belligerent, but if you already posted the impolite version, I'll support it.

RE: Why is Hamza Tzortzis wrong? Fallacies.
Even though I enjoy good rhetoric and watching debates, one must be aware it is more of a game or sport than actually about uncovering truth.

RE: Why is Hamza Tzortzis wrong? The attributes of god.
I completely agree that science is our best shot for reaching beyond the limitations of our brains. Absolutely. By I'll contend we have another tool of 'transcendence', so to…

RE: Why is Hamza Tzortzis wrong? The attributes of god.
Yes, the first point is a rather silly thing, but all the endeavor of using reason to deduce god is silly at best. If god actually acts within time, he's by definition in time as…

RE: [STATISM] Is it Morally Wrong to Evade Taxes?
Wow! I don't agree to all that you've written but I enjoyed reading every single letter. For example, while I have (so far) come to the conclusion that voting isn't immoral, I…

RE: [STATISM] Is it Morally Wrong to Evade Taxes?
I stand corrected on the use of the word utilitarian. As for the word compatibilist (which I actually use in other context), I think the label isn't all that useful. There could…

RE: [STATISM] Is it Morally Wrong to Evade Taxes?
It's not the first quote... but ok, I'm probably seeing too much. I'd like to register the opinion that's too easy to say Germans should not have paid taxes because the money…

RE: [STATISM] Is it Morally Wrong to Evade Taxes?
Great article as usual steemswede. But may I ask you something a little off topic? Why do you quote Larken Rose so much? It's not like he's the original source of these thoughts.…

RE: How Science Fiction Has Been Used

RE: More Jobs! Yeah - Right
Yes, I see. You're absolutely right. Transitions like this aren't easy in the best of cases. It worries me that government, in trying to produce these jobs, will tinker with the…

RE: More Jobs! Yeah - Right
Yeah, I wasn't very clear. Let me try again. Some centuries ago, 90% of the population worked in agriculture. Food was scarce and traded for things people would find essential.…
