Tolerance of intolerance, intolerance of intolerance, or any other combination of negations, in the long run, always leads to an intolerant society. Intolerance is a stable state. Therefore, the solution to the Gordian knot, if any, must lie deeper
@phi50@Strawberry_k1ng@ItIsHoeMath@Mike16Ike19 You guys don’t understand that I used Buddhism as an example to illustrate that which particular religion doesn’t matter. All that matters is to attack the religion of the dominant force. If the west happened to be predominantly Zoroastrian, the same mockery would replicate
@ItIsHoeMath@Mike16Ike19 The attack isn’t due to a superiority in the teaching of Christ, it’s only coincidence. Similar hatred would go to Buddha if the west happened to be predominantly a Buddhist society. The attack on the dominant religious values is an attempt to undermine cohesion within a society
@Philosophi_Cat@ArtemisConsort Philosophy in its origins and most common use tries to resolve problems that are considered negative to human experience. So ANY negative feeling highlights a potential problem to be analyzed/resolved by thought => creativity
@Philosophi_Cat@ArtemisConsort it’s usually bitterness and disappointment that drive people to be creative. No need for petty insults especially given your supposed philosophical acumen
@captgouda24 Because in fiction you can see what people really like and crave. It’s a different perspective (perhaps more honest) of how the human perceives the environment, how he feels, interacts and wishes it to be. Fiction is an insight into the soul of man.
@ItIsHoeMath @DSPetolicchio I think the point is that culturally of course Christianity and thus most modern ethics, derive from Jewish history. Christianity was just Judaism for the masses, to battle and dilute the classical Greek/roman paganism
@Aella_Girl mistrust of such individuals is
there coz for 1000s of years, sex was linked to the cost of raising a family. Modern contraceptives don’t negate the “evolutionary instinct” that a sexually reckless person undermines the family, a bedrock of civilized living
@Aella_Girl Sexual experiences without emotional attachment simplifies sex to elaborate masturbation. It makes a caricature of a process that creates life.
@adam__xyz The older you get the more expectations you have of your future partner “in life”. Also the risks are higher for public personas. For them to TRUST someone to build a family with, would require a far larger leap of faith, than to a normal 25-40yr
@Aella_Girl The pendulum is normal course of nature in wars of belief. You need to change side quickly, so that the momentum dampens, but doing so means constantly being against the current, constantly on the back foot and sometimes the swing breaks your leg 😂
@DatingSenseii So far, all 3 points above, your supposed “fail” answers are actually amazing alpha responses, if your tone of delivery is confident. The tone of delivery matters more in passing a test than the content of the answer. Now delivery, without massive practice, you can’t fake
@LydiaCaradonna@botticellibimbo I think that such acceptance is the exception rather than the rule. For those (majority of sws) who actually face stigma, it is damaging psychologically, even if the reflex way to contain damage is to deny its existence
