It's worthy to give it a 2nd tryNow coming to the topicDemons have a fundamental right to eat humansI will prove that by relating it to already established pointsPain is wrongWe all know that pain is wrong But pain is wrong for us, per
As I understand it, substance dualists argue the mind is non-material. They separate everything into two distinct categories: material and non-material thinking substance. One of the biggest questions about this is how something non-material can affect material. To better conceptualize the criticism
Exploitation might loosely be defined as taking opportunistic advantage of someone else's unfavorable circumstances, especially in a way that results in some additional harm to the sufferer.The concept has come to occupy outsized importance in contemporary Western ethics, and has been made to includ
I was thinking about how a lot of the front-page Reddit political posts seem like strawmen of the opposition, even more so when looking at specific communities devoted to one viewpoint or another. But if your exposure to right-wing arguments is based on videos of people like this, and the post is re
Yeah, humanity is inter-connected, so Germany not immune to globalizaiton.The larger global concern is what is wrong with humanity?Watching El Nino news today and it is on track to be the worse ever in its global effects. This is means 2027 is yet again going to be breaking new global heat and othe
Instead of just saying its why Universe exists, I had a new thought --more of tangent tho-- of the reason/cause of why eternally existent Universe is the only perpetual motion machine.....is it the pair of outer and inner nodal/vertexial events switching after every other two triangular sets. --asid
The massive shift of tech that is level-3 civ will contain the power to tame the entire galaxy of star system to bring them under human dominion. oThis is entry in to the third type of civilization; Galactic Civ.One feature of level-3 is the development of Dyson Spheres around every star system of t
In An Essay in Aid of a Grammar of Assent (1870), Saint John Henry Newman explores how the human mind moves from considering ideas to genuinely believing them. Rather than viewing belief as a gradient of logical probabilities, Newman argues that assent is unconditional—we either accept a proposition
I have seen a variety of definitions. Nat Geo once published - sometime in the 80s, I think, a list of six or5 seven defining principles, the whole of which would demonstrate the best of our civilization that disks not5 yet entertain nuclear power, or nuclear anything, meaning a level of technology
Are our choices fully determined by prior causes/environment/biology, and if so, how should we define morility/moral responsibility?If determinism is true, then every choice you make comes from causes you did not choose. Your biology, your environment, and your past experiences shape every decision.
The idea behind age restrictions (I think) is that they protect kids. It makes sense why we don't let kids become firefighters or join the army, and parents can stop their kids from blowing all their money right away. But then what about age restrictions that don't protect kids?Medical RestrictionsP

A lot of people apply a materialistic yardstick to argue against the existence of certain concepts, with an argument that tries to present a contradiction and in so doing, claims that it is proof that the concept in question doesn’t exist. This argument can also be applied to the existence of light,
We have become so critical of one another over the variety of physical characteristics we individually express that we begin to think all we are is just skin-deep, and that nothing of consequence occurs deeper.That this is an incorrect attitude is what mostly has us at each other's teeth. Can we giv
Machiavelli wasnt born rich, just in educated middle class.He rose to power through political skills, getting government position.then he also fell, was thrown in prison and severely tortured.Most people would be broken by torture Machiavelli endured. But not Machiavelli. He endured torture, and out

Something I’ve noticed...Accusing others of “always projecting” might be one of the easiest ways to accidentally prove the point.I’ve seen it in politics, religion, and everyday disagreements.It seems like we’re really good at spotting patterns in others, but much worse at catching them in ourselves

Kardaschev's level-4 civ is virtually unimaginable simply because at level 3, Galactic-level energy control, we have embarked on the virtual zenith of possible civilization, yet we're barely half-way along the scale. Here is the level of recognition of knowing all, because we have achieved the ultim
Kardaschev's 6-level civ is a mature, god-like power which has control over every possible energy source material to create and shape it to an infinite-capable and universal energy source of omnipotent ability. There is only one further level of civilization beyond this, and that level is discussed
Kardaschev's level-5 civ is universal in scope, purpose, and accomplishment. Its abilities begin to appear god-like, and are. Who said it was ever possible for man to become god? Well, for one, God did. Also, the ancient Egyptians thought so. I suggest reading the Egyptian Book of the Dead. There's
Kardashev's level-2 civ is another Planetary Civilization0; its influence and power does not exceed the effect and power to launch th4e civilization beyond the planet on which one lives; in our case, planet Earth, or perhaps even other planets of the solar system. Therefore, even our colonization o
Kardashev's level-1 civ is another Planetary Civilization. I forgot to mention in the 0-level post that there are three types of civilizations, the first being planetary, meaning that it's energy-producing capability and power is limited to the planet whereon it is employed, and upon other planets i
The mirror is the worst household feature because it is nothing but a counterfeit of everything that is. In it, my left-side face is the mirror reflection's right. I see nothing else in a mirror but what is behind me, and otherwise, out of mind. That which is behind me is past, not present or future
The level-7 civilization is the next generation; being now godly in the sixth level, the seventh is passing the torch to our children, just as God anciently passed it to us, and thus, the cycle of civilizations begins anew, as it has for eons into the distant past, which had no beginning, and forwar

If you punish a child for being naughty, and reward him for being good, he will do right merely for the sake of the reward; and when he goes out into the world and finds that goodness is not always rewarded, nor wickedness always punished, he will grow into a man who only thinks about how he may get
Even if we were to accept that logic exists (in form of law of identity only), these premises follow:P1. In each closed system of limited claims, each claim is dependent on "something" to prove itself true.P2. that "something" can only be law of identity itselfP3. If it is not law of identity, then
Let's say we want to find an objectively true answer to a question, or at the very least, find a probability distribution for what the likely answer is. There are a few methods we could use to go about achieving this.1) IntuitionBasically system 1 thinking, which works for a lot of things but isn't
