The problem is that you're intellectually bankrupt. You don't "faith" everything else in your every day life, besides it's all rationality... some of it's just bad rationality.
What the fuck yeah having an abortion is a terrible event but I wonder where 'being forced not to have an abortion' let alone 'being raped by your uncle then being forced to have his baby' would rank on that same list. Also if 67% of people hated white chocolate would that mean u can get fucked...
Maybe. I think though, if you're someone who for whatever reason thinks that your having slept with X amount of people is a 'bad trait', your desire not to tell / to keep the status quo of not telling is just as insecure as someone who wants to find out how many people you've slept with because...
tbh I can't see why you'd be so standoffish about it... unless you actually felt, like them, that the names and numbers were something important, or at the very least you must understand yourself why they might be important to them. I don't think they're important at all so I'd give them away to...
Just as... like a question to get to know someone better. Dom's probably correct, they might partially want to know how liberal you are not because it's like a moral issue to them, but so they know what you might like. Some people might be doing it because they think you're worth less if you've...
Yeah you've argued this way in the God thread, it ends with everyone ignoring you because you've reasoned that reasoning musn't be all that important since the most important thing in the world to you apparently (your faith) you came to without reason. It's a really funny way out of never having...
No but I wouldn't even take into account "what I would do" I would take into account perhaps how the person would feel, but I would try to remove what actions I'd desire to take out of the equation.... because tbh that part doesn't matter.
Certainly you should take into account the pain/suffering someone might feel by a moral course of action (that is the utilitarian thing to do), by saying "what would you do" though I think you're moving quite a bit beyond that... We are fundamentally selfish beings and would do what's in our...
imo.
The point I'm trying to make is just that it's a bad line of argument to bring up 'what if it happened to you' because that's just simply not how our moral codes are/should be made.
Well for instance if my daughter was raped/murdered I might want the death penalty for the guy who did it and I can probably feel extreme empathy for a father who would want that and probably no empathy whatsoever for the rapist - However I'm not in favour of the death penalty. So yeah, I'd say...
I don't like these sort of arguments tbh... Just imagine for a second the other applications of this sort of rule and then decide if that's really the sort of morality you want.
ORIGINAL SIN CUZ ADAM DID IT AND HE WOZ YR ANCESTOR.
seriously I think God was on to something... If you recieve multiple life sentences then those left over should go to your eldest son, followed by the next eldest etc... if you run out of them then their children, if no one is left then the...
