So, are you suggesting you don't live in "today's world," and that your arguments and definitions "are not wrong today" as long as they "might possibly be right one day?"

That’s running with the goal post.
Serpentine. Serpentine.

Morals and ethics change with science?
Some. Possible. Abortion. Science convinced some people to change their morals and hence their ethics.
Shouldn’t kill every whale, beaver, Buffalo, little white furry seal pup. (They’ll run out so maybe economic and not moral.)
But rare.

Morals are learned and, unbelievable to many here that I’m gonna use the word, felt.

Ethics? Gotta follow your morals.
IMO.

Tao of Pooh if you’re only gonna read one. (Taoism explained based on Winnie the Pooh)

And if those light you up the extended course syllabus includes

Sadly the illiterate dumbass would find R.A.Wilson iconoclatic ideas  right up xhis alley, but knowledge and understanding  is out of reach for the disabled.

At some point I feel a little bad about making fun of the mentally handicapped. Not there yet.

Pretending to be offended does not make you a good person.

I ‘m running through every scene I can find on YouTube and laughing my ass off.
I call it the law of natural progression in romance. (Not his list to be clear.) which is kind of what the Tao is.

But in a weird way the Tao of Pooh is actually religious.
If a philosophy can count as religion.
And one can see how they fit in to the Force.

Or Mac right here.  :rofl: :shaka:




Holy crap. here’s one for Umni (kind of tutorial video.) first half at least,

IMO.
In my philosophy classes I was taught there are two kinds of ethics.
Professional ethics
and moral ethics.

Professional ethics are man made and can be changed as men see fit to do so.
such as the "Holocaust in WW II. it was perfectly legal and ethical in those men's
beliefs. Much like modern Democrats and their fascination with abortion.

Moral ethics are God given and only God can change them.
My example would be the ten commandments, most of whom describe our entirety
of laws. don't murder, don't steal, don't fuk your neighbor over, et al.

It is actually pretty simple.
it is the Midrash that has made it all so complex.
 :worship:





It is really that simple.

I'm shocked any of the stores survived as long as they did.

Taoism looks at religion as one of the fall back positions, many steps down from true 'goodness? / correctness ?'. Fear of reprisals from disappointed gods is a not what should dictate behavior. Taoism also isnt a big fan or 'Kindness' or 'Justice' as anchor points for decision making either.

 "True Tao can never be talked about" but since we are trying to, the basic premise is to become aware that all things have 2 opposing sides, neither is better than the other, they cannot be separated from each other because they are actually one and the same. Get good at that and it spirals out like fractals further and further and further ......

A guy who say's he isn't religious, sure does post a lot about them.  Now he's posting scriptures.  He's in Jesus denial.

He's busy Googling the passage so he can then tell us HIS OPINION of the message being conveyed on the billboard.

I wasted my time and poisoned my internet search history but here.

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6).

The ancient prophet Isaiah foretold the coming of the Messiah and revealed much about His roles.


Basically the dude said it about Jesus coming.  Painting Trumps picture with that quote is akin to calling Trump Jesus...

See again, for someone who doesn't like/believe religion, he sure knows a lot about it. He doesn't even have to google it and knows the meaning.

I'll say instead of being at the range on a Sunday, he's at church.
