Depends how much you want to spend? Might as well live as close as you can to the uni. Birmingham gardens, north lambton, jesmond, are adjacent to the uni and okay. It'd be nice to live in stockton, merewether, bar beach. Or in the inner city, like cooks hill would be amazing. Nowhere in...

let me tell you about my long haired opponent...

Where and how did you justify it? You've stated that biology is the origin of an emotional reaction to suffering/selfishness, but not why it is justified to take any particular action in response to this stimulus, or why an emotional reaction makes the situation right or wrong. I don't see how...

Are you a christian?

Tradesman are educated though, I find this pretty insulting, you've obviously never considered the technical skill and knowledge that is involved in a trade. Many tradesman get pissed off with engineers because they often design stupid shit that doesn't work in reality, and the tradies...

You're just restating your premise that suffering/selfishness are wrong, you haven't justified why it is so. What about when I feel emotions of anger and vengeance, is natural selection then telling me that violence is morally justified? When I feel guilt, how do I know that it is saying I...

You've just restated your premise, not explained why it provides grounds for morality, or answers any moral question. why we should act on the intuitions provided by evolution? But natural selection (which is the only justification you've provided for morality), is only concerned with what...

If you're just going to tell me I'm stupid, and not elaborate on your position at all, please stop posting. I may be dense, but please bear with me and explain exactly how natural selection justifies morality? A significant problem with arguing that natural selection is a justification for a...

Why not just remove them from that environment? Why punish the child because you've put them in a dangerous environment?

Every study and organisation cited on this page is either critical of smacking children, or at best fails to justify that it has any benefit over other means of punishment. Corporal punishment in the home - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

To immediately answer my own question I stand by my point though.

Can you name any faired motorcycle, in the history of motorcycling, that isn't better looking?
