Am I the Asshole? Philosophy tries to understand how normal people think about morality.
This article is super-interesting – reporting on actual morality as it is actually carried out – and a devastating critique of traditional utilitarianism “as given”.
Traditional utilitarianism is a classic example of “if you…[Read more]

One of the related issues i have been thinking about is tackled by Sam Harris in the vid that follows. So i am thinking either you are a run of the mill Jew hater and or you have been persuaded by the far left that Israel is Satan and is actually an apartheid, colonialist, genocidal nightmare to such an outstanding degree that…

Enco, I did not listen to the youtube video but the article ya linked is good. First time i realized that the media was reporting the numbers based on Hamas’ reports i just shook my head.

Again, while all civilian deaths in war are horrible, you may want to reconsider the numbers of Gaza’s dead being thrown around. Even the United Nations had to concede the the number of child deaths were half what were previously given by UNICEF in March (fast forward to…[Read more]

Well, those Ivy League students do need an outlet to counter their intense guilt for being so entitled. So privileged. So sure, let’s find the final solution for the Jewish problem so they feel better. From the river to the sea. Finish the job. Or maybe just back to Poland or Russia with them, you know, where the Jews will be safe? Then Harvard…[Read more]

Unseen,
When it comes to Israel, “I hate the sin, not the sinner.” I don’t blame Israel for existing but rather for their behavior toward the Palestinians. I don’t love Hamas, but I do understand the causality behind its existence. I’m a peace-loving person.
Lolwut? I expect as much from hypocritical Christians trying to justify their horrible…[Read more]

Reg,
Gandhi was once asked what he thought about Western Civilization. He replied that he thought that it might be a good idea if it happened.

Unseen,
How long has this order to kill been public? The only mentions of it I’ve been able to find are considerably less than a week old, like 2,3, or 4 days. Also, 34,000 at least already killed in Gaza. Has even one person been killed in this instance? How many dead so far?
Doesn’t matter. What the Saudis are doing is either genocide if d…[Read more]
