@Avatar_the_goat@Philip_Goff We're only concerned with moral status of homosexuality and homosexual acts. To bring that up is to concede that homosexuality isn't morally wrong which the Vatican says it is and that's what started the entire thread
@Avatar_the_goat@Very_Sagacious@Philip_Goff I don't like args from intuition. Anyway why should we think pple have reliable intuitions when it comes to sexual ethics? In the past and even some parts today, pple saw no problem with marrying girls to older men, raping slaves, sleeping with lil boys
@Avatar_the_goat@Philip_Goff If it's not wrong or okay to do, then what is it? Notice I didn't say it would be good to do it, I used okay meaning it would be permissible
@jaimelo21477183@GristForHerMill@Philip_Goff And I, along with most philosophers, find them wanting. It relies on Aristotelian metaphysics to get off the ground and even if you accept them, the argument still doesn't work. Natural Law is a terrible ethical theory and the Vatican only accept to justify their views on sex
@Avatar_the_goat@Philip_Goff Arguments provide justification for/against a belief. If you're willing to believe an entire group of people are sinful degenerates who should suffer for loving one another, you better be able to back it up strongly /1
@Avatar_the_goat@Philip_Goff The fact that no argument against homosexuality is successful lol. The most sophisticated one "The Perverted Faculty Argument" is still shit
@jaimelo21477183@GristForHerMill@Philip_Goff Condemning people's sexuality as disgusting or an abomination isn't shaming? Forcing people to never experience love isn't going to make them be alone? We already know homophobia has a negative effect on one's psyche so stop with the bs
Oh here we go. Academics were complaining about Cofnas's appointment on the grounds of his 'abysmal' shoddy work when he was employed by Ghent, well before the Arday affair. Oh come on. This guy is an imposter. https://t.co/mETq86JE77
@Based_Atheist@LoinDuTribu Can you cite anything that controlled for all those variables? Race realists say this but only cite studies that control for income
@avidseries@TerezaHendl That isn't the consensus, and you know it. Only 39% actually worked in intelligence research and only 6% in genetics. That's ignoring the fact it was mostly herediterians who answered as it had a 20% response rate and they were from mostly Intelligence
