    2007 HSC Specimen Examination: Question 21: Scientific or Rational humanism?

    The distinction is between using your rationality i.e. common sense/logical principles etc compared with any sort of empiricism which would make it Scientific. I would agree with you that it's scientific humanism due to: It also mentions senses, again empiricism. The problem comes from them...

    Twin Internet Suicide Pact

    It's always funny to see the frantic search to find a culprit for such a shocking act. It must have been the music, their friends, their family, their internet chatrooms and I agree that there has been influence. However I find it interesting that it's almost taboo to suggest that these girls...

    A fall, a rape and $240,000 in compensation

    Sounds to me like more judicial pragmatism to get a nice result for victims that ends up fucking around with the courts for the next 5 years.

    Virginia Tech Shootings (Merged)

    Nah I think he comes across as a melodramatic idiot, personally. It's not hard to shoot a gun and hit a target, especially close ones. I'd never fired a gun before in my life, went to vegas and was able to hit close enough targets basically wherever i wanted to, from distances probably similar...

    Does MYSPACE serve as a place for individuality or conformity?

    I think it's impossible to know and also actually a fairly boring question, if anything I'd say i'm critical of the concept of conformity and individualism.

    Does MYSPACE serve as a place for individuality or conformity?

    It's possible to be an individual and still end up in a state of conformity i.e. it just so happens that everyone else has the same tastes, basically, as you, by that same token it's also possible to conform with others while doing so merely because that's your individual desire. I mean one of...

    Dating Religious Girl

    Hello again random religion troll, quite possibly dean. Anyway I wouldn't be bothered at all by the religiosity of a girl as long as she's fine with my beliefs just as much. I'll even go to church or whatever (if reasonable), I don't really care - If she cares a lot then that seems to trump my...

    Intolerance: Christians vs. Atheists

    Re: intolerance Christians vs. atheists Well yea, we use our insticts, our reasoning power to decide what we feel is just, empathy etc. Pretty much the same as anyone else. You can't tell me that you get all your morals from the bible, for starters you've picked and choosed which morals to...

    Is the Bible reliable?

    I thought the troll was wondering whether the bible was reliable compared with known history/fact more than how reliable it is compared with the 'original text'? For instance, were there really jewish slaves to the egyptians? Did they really spend all that time 'wandering' the desert? It's a...

    Is the Bible reliable?

    Lengy just ... really doesn't like non-atheists, it actually reminds me of the sort of mindless hate those obsessed with a religion have for those not a part of their religion. Personally, my atheism doesn't lend its self very well to the idea that those with different beliefs to mine are just...

    Intolerance: Christians vs. Atheists

    There are thousands of explanations, look it up man it isn't hard. Do you really think the vast majority of the world's leading biological scientists noticed the cambrian explosion was a problem and have merely passed it off because they like evolution? Yes it has, explain how you're defining...
