I don't post much, so I don't know what kind of response I will get. I have a theological/philosophical question . If the best possible world is one where man can do great evil but chooses to do good, then is any law/structure forced on people to make them good nec. luciferian

@johnfsymons Nice

@RichardDawkins Depends largely on your metaphysics

@johnfsymons The semester long seminars on De Anima and Nicomachean Ethics were essential for my understanding of the psychology underpinning Aristotles ethics.

@ImagoNinth @BasqPhilosopher Clearly those are the only true philosophy books.

@Matthew__David_ @BasqPhilosopher It is comments like this that get us labeled pretentious. Just answer or don't.

@Vancbromycin bout the same as they dealt with the threat of terrorist attacks as young kids, the threat of covid, etc.

There has not been one day in 80 some years without threat of a lot of BS. We have all grown used to the world ending.

@terrelljstarr You sir are doing fine work. Thank you.

@RepClayHiggins can we not attempt to make everything the fault of people who are trying to be accepted while falling outside of gender norms. I understand that it's a hot button issue for your agenda but seriously. Making the threat of nuclear war a way to shit on non binary people. WTF

[Benjamin Porter 🧢 @BenjaminPorte12]

@johnfsymons I hope he loses the reigns and we see some positive change in Russia. I found out tonight that my friends in Ukraine are still safe, so I am in a more hopeful mood. Had not heard anything about them since thursday.

[Benjamin Porter 🧢 @BenjaminPorte12]

@ElectricAgora Good luck with whatever the future holds.

Found out that the people I know over in Ukraine are safe for the moment. its nice to know.
