    Parenting license

    I'm skeptical. I don't know. I think there were times in history where it was an obligation to reproduce, like when you needed people to take down a mammoth, or create a neolithic farm. Where does the idea of it being a 'right' enter history? It seemed like a right for probably thousands of...

    and except something that the supreme court got rid of

    When a sitting president essentially states that half the country is "garbage".

    Blah, blah, blah... all the politicians, all the celebrities, they all make great sums of money just for talking. Meanwhile, I'm learning a trade where I could lose fingers and arms. Who cares. Anybody care? Any of you forumers? No, you'd rather pay attention to all of these tv characters. As...

    On the nature of intellect

    Is there a post here on how the idea of Forms might conflict with Postmodernism / subjectivity? Or what's the interplay, if there is one

    at Madison Square Garden: an Ugly "Carnival of Grievances, Misogyny and Racism"

    It might give you the leverage to actually curate what you want them to think. If you do it well. Look, I'm just giving out a suggestion. If you have a better vision of how things might work better, or of how things might look in the future given x or y political plan, put it forward. Whatever

    at Madison Square Garden: an Ugly "Carnival of Grievances, Misogyny and Racism"

    I think what I might argue, is that people are brainwashable. But they all can also be led to believe better or things, or worse things. There might be a sizable population of bigots in america - but if there are, they probably are mostly followers, rather than people who can do lots of thinking...

    at Madison Square Garden: an Ugly "Carnival of Grievances, Misogyny and Racism"

    Well, there are distasteful qualities that people engage in - racism, bigotry etc. etc. In the far right, they do this. However, the right-wing, so far as I can tell, is the only political group that recognizes whites as a group body, and meets them without a great saturation of guilt on them...

    at Madison Square Garden: an Ugly "Carnival of Grievances, Misogyny and Racism"

    I respect Jews, but I know that they themselves seem to fall into either a right-wing or left-wing group, and that level of detail really matters, right? I think the reason is, is that if the world decides that identify groups are actually meaningful (enough people seem to believe it), then...

    at Madison Square Garden: an Ugly "Carnival of Grievances, Misogyny and Racism"

    If you can't see how the Left is creating a vacuum for the bad part of the Right, to just suck people up into all of these distasteful things, then I don't know if you have thought that much about all of this Jayhawker. Prove me wrong. Actually provide a rebuttal of more than 1 or 2 sentences...

    at Madison Square Garden: an Ugly "Carnival of Grievances, Misogyny and Racism"

    Well I don't hate non-whites, or whites. It seems that we all add diversity to the world, bringing it to the world table. But I will say this: the left-wing clearly leaves a big vacuum here, in which it enables right-wing attraction to whites. Because of this: the Left seems to refuse to create...

    (US citizens) Who are you voting for in the 2024 US Presidential Election?

    I'm not voting, because I want whoever you want to win, to win.. You the voter. Whoever wins, fine. I have too much proximal stress to actually care: certain career I decisions I make in the next couple weeks will matter far more to me by November 6, than whoever wins the top chair. Maybe when...

    what if eventually there is an AI candidate

    Maybe there could be competing AI candidates.. multiple programs that have differing value concepts

    what if eventually there is an AI candidate

    Just an idea that popped into my head.. people are always commenting on the personality problems of human candidates, or have problems with their contradicting views etc. You know, they are just human like the rest of us, and they can be unlikable on that level. They can be unsmart.. have...

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    alright.. I took the time to read through 3 of those, but I realized that these specific issues aren't maybe addressing my more broad, meta-concern regarding the overall question / social issue, as it relates to religion and the future of society. I understand that feminism plays a role in the...

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    I'm too burnt after work to comment much on the rest of your post right now, but I would say that this loops back to the thread topic statements.. about their supposedly being these excess males in church now. Well then, why don't these women go back to them? What's going on with that? Or are...

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    Your claim is clear, I was asking about the reasoning behind it

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    Could you explain some of your reasoning here

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    ugh, I think might be too tired to take a walk before I go to work.. so I might as well blather a little more Well I think one answer to 'where are they going,' at least in the western world, is that they are dating. Religion limits that, secular life does not. If society remained religious in...

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    Yeah I mean I don't often find the behavior of males in history as being good, when they had the power they had, though I think that at times, social forces were trying to bring things into balance, and they failed. I think that optimally, there should be power balances, without blame. I mean...

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    A name that popped in my head as I read your posts was Agrippina.. from when I read a book of Seneca's letters: Agrippina the Younger - Wikipedia So there would have been various times in Rome where woman had powerful roles, but I'm curious on what kind of a character Agrippina was.. well, if...
