Your position is morally repugnant and philosophically inconsistent. And you have indicated you hoped they would die. Your position on this, and...
I think I did answer it, in quite a bit of detail. What did I miss? As far as the money thing, unless something changes you're never going to...
After an astonishing few minutes reading this thread in its entirety I'm not exactly sure what I'm witnessing. What it looks like is one person...
That whole thing was a mess. I knew the two of them sort of peripherally and while they sometimes seemed happy together she was, and still is,...
I'm curious - prior to having it all explained here in this thread, did you find the "evidence" about non-parallel shadows, not being able see...
No, I don't want to legalize heroin. This isn't a simple issue so I can't answer your simple question with a yes or no - you would be no closer...
You may well be right, but I think it would be irresponsible just to dismiss the idea as unworkable without looking into it. I don't mean that...
For anybody who is actually interested in what they're doing in Portugal, here is a good rundown of the policy changes and their effect 5 years...
You didn't ask me to back up the idea. You asked me why I don't just start handing out free drugs, something which has nothing to do with the way...
Thanks. Did I draw a conclusion? I didn't mean to. Unless you mean the tautology, which was meant as a joke. Since you disagree with it, do...
Do you honestly believe that a single person handing out drugs bears any resemblance whatsoever to the changes I proposed? Either you didn't...
You didn't answer my question. You are aware that as things stand you are paying, right? You pay for all the law enforcement and all the bells...
Fair enough. I'll cop to that, and I should have been clearer about my thoughts on the matter. I just got through Plantinga's piece on...
It's counter intuitive, I know, but this hasn't proven to be the case in Portugal, which decriminalized everything in 2000 or so. All the bad...
So you would be willing to pay, say, $100.00 not to help someone rather than 50 cents to save them? Why do I suddenly feel like the true...
There have been long running programs in the UK and (I believe) Sweden that prescribed daily administration of heroin to groups of long time...
I don't think you can marry your sister anywhere thought, right? -- Bummer. I was hoping you were right on this because it does make a...
A lot of things are possible, but that's different from there being any evidence to suport this claim. Don't get me wrong - there certainly could...
I honestly don't have the energy to dive into Kalam or any of the other usual suspects - feel free to engage someone else if you want to debate,...
As a child I think I would opt for the parents I had. I don't think their sex would enter into the equation considering I would be young enough...
Why would you ask me to summarize his work on causality if you were already familiar with it? Were you trying to Socrates a lesson into me? I'm...
Everything. The whole lot. Unless you were privy to an event I didn't get invited to, all this stuff was lying about when you turned up, wasn't it?
I'm not going to do your homework for you. Think of it as a self-improvement project. In the meantime it's clear that you are unaware of Hume's...
No, not at all. I just think there are more cost effective ways to organize things. The war on drugs has been very expensive and largely...
Unless you're aware of some scientific breakthrough I'm not, all children have a mother and a father. That's how it works, by definition....
