@Your_Shiro_ @mysticinbirth I did not know she did this. makes me feel sick.

@ma1ybe Only a misandrist can look at an irrefutable example of female on male sexual assault and blame all men ever of a thing that less than 1% are guilty of.

@paleochristcon Unsure of the veracity, but people are claiming it

@RepDickSwett @Half__86 @OzzyAussieOtty What are you shadowbox rambling about? Both I and the study are talking about using either/or tests like finite resources to force participants to demonstrate hierarchies; no one is asserting that empathy is a finite resource.

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

@lilyally98 The same tragedy as if he were never there to begin with?

"If I'm just going to take the scaffolding down when I'm done, why put it up in the first place?"

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

People definitely had a discourse leading up to its pronouncement as a heresy. Gnosticism started as early as the 1st and 2nd centuries, well before the church had papal inquisitions and the Church fathers were in open theological discourse.

This assertion that the Catholics just refused to talk about anything and slaughtered wildly anyone who disagreed is not only divest of nuance, it ignores a whole millenia of history.

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

@TheFarRightSide @elyasviel No, the crusade did not murder all of the Gnostics. Not by a long shot. Are you referring to the inquisition afterwards? Because that only affected a localized region, other gnostic communities still persisted.

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

@TheFarRightSide @elyasviel Source?

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

I'm not talking about the study when I'm replying to a tangential question.

Your assertion that cons do not empathize with their neighborhood is misled.

The study pertained to responses under artificial constraints in aggregating how cons and libs favor parochial or universalist ideologies. 3a being limited points model, 3b being an assigned dot on a map model (click on the screen).

Your assertion about neighborhoods doesn't track within traditional conservative communities. Cons are regularly rural and surrounded by their close knit communities. Liberals are regularly urban and frequently encounter daily life examples of how the abstract regulus of rules keeps strangers in a form of harmony.

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

In a hierarchy of priorities, one thing always takes precedence over something else.

If your hierarchy is distorted, if you fail to appreciate the reconciliation of one being dependent on another, if you fail to properly place reasoning and analysis, you create an inevitably self-defeating system.

@TransAndMerican @Gab26080 Sunday of all saints? What are you grasping at?

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

@TransAndMerican @mcnabb_cal92003 Am Eastern Orthodox, please explain.

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

Granting that a fertilized egg can be frozen and re-implanted, that actually makes your case more indefensible.

You are categorically ruling out every argument that the unborn is part of the mother and obliterating the "my body, my choice" assertion.

Well done, you have both failed to prove it's not a separate human life, you have successfully dismantled an entirely different line of pro-choice reasoning.

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

@elyasviel Foundership isn't a requisite quality to defining a heresy, it's a requisite quality to defining a cult of personality.

Not all heresies involve cults of personality.

@zaelefty Isn't the platypus approaching endangered species species status due to population decline? Is this really the example they want to make?

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

@Michaeldudufudu That is a bit far.

Definitely help a girl figure out propriety before marriage, but we Christians have been marrying pagans out of paganism since the earliest days of the church. Nothing wrong with marrying these as long as the road to marriage is sufficiently transformative.

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

@uzidmanslefttit @Uzi_304 @harper033_ Based on what? Are people entitled to a diversity of values and beliefs?

You objection presumes that the moral thing to do is satisfy the internal vision of self. The mother's objection presumes that sense of self is informed by and conforms to expectation. Why is she wrong?

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

@Cynxetic @Half__86 @OzzyAussieOtty Unless of course you would like to draw a distinction between;

Nuclear and Parochial
As well as
Abstract and Universal

Then, yet again, I'm waiting to see how the test better applies to such distinctions (if any exist) vs. the ones I am observing by virtue of the test.

[Andrew Matthews @andreasmadogs]

@Cynxetic @Half__86 @OzzyAussieOtty ...that is not what it is measuring, that is what you are concluding.

I first explained the nature of the tests in my own words and provided their words in screencap for comparison.

3a asks participants to use limited points (1st pic) and results are displayed in the 3rd pic.
