The inhabitants of central Italy are pretty fair skinned.
>Work colleague recently took up Buddhism (despite being a fedora level athiest a few months prior)
>No longer shows negative emotions
>Our new manager is an early 20-something Stacy who loves power
>She uses colleague's passiveness to her advantage, and bullies him to the full extent of her power (enough not to get her fired)
>He's completely fine with her and is willing to let her do it "because she'll learn her mistakes by herself one day"
Fuck, are all Buddhists like this? A few months ago he would've stood up for himself.
Bhuddism is too alien for westeners to get right.

the oil companies and monied interests didn't want him around.

Ayn Rand hated Kant, so all the good little Randroids hate Kant too.
Why do people think it's wrong to stop talking to family?
i havent talked to ANY of my family in 20+ years. i dont thing its wrong
Because the family is like a friend group which you were born into so if you don't talk to family anymore then it's obvious something went bad and bad = wrong

When most countries lose a massive amount of territory, they remain butthurt for decades if not hundreds of years.
How can Germans be so cool with just losing half their country like that? Don't they feel any butthurt about it, why was there no attempt ever to reclaim Prussia?
>>2255004
Because German nationalism, as well as being German itself is evil. What kind of a nazi are you to want to claim all that clay?

Intelligent design is perhaps the worst meme of the last few millennia
>Wow this thing functions. I bet God made it
This is the same God that gave you a worthless appendix that can only kill you.
This is the same God that designed all the diseases, including the congenital ones that kill babies
The same God that designed mosquitos, wasps and face mites
I could deal with creationists if they didn't exclusively use arguments from ignorance, or if they admitted that "yeah so God probably made everything but also he probably hates us because the world is a dystopian shithole"
>>2254955
Arguing with creationists is a fucking meme only kids fight over imaginary bullshit with other kids on the internet.
>>2254955
Were I God, I would absolutely create mites, ticks and mosquitoes, just to make the dumb fucks suffer as I have. Show them the face of true evil.
why do fedoras always make appeals to the shitiness of the world as proof of God not existing
Hurrrrr God didn't prevent 9/11 therefore there is no god
i mean I tip my fedora with the best of them and still remember the old Internet when there were no religious people on it period too but the argument is infantile
how to appreciate life? how to consider life a positive thing? enjoy being alive? is there a philosophical teaching or something that gives any hints?

Is there a particular quote or saying that a historical figure said that stuck/ resonated with you?

Without sensibility no object would be given to us, without understanding no object would be thought. Thoughts without content are empty, intuitions without concepts are blind.
Immanuel Kant
"Critique of Pure Reason"
Are there really that few people who think sex is inherently revolting and disgusting? As the philosopher Kant says: "Because sexuality is not an inclination which one human being has for another as such, but is an inclination for the sex of another, it is a principle of the degradation of human nature, in that it gives rise to the preference of one sex to the other, and to the dishonouring of that sex through the satisfaction of desire. The desire which a man has for a woman is not directed towards her because she is a human being, but because she is a woman; that she is a human being is of no concern to the man; only her sex is the object of his desires. Human nature is thus subordinated. Hence it comes that all men and women do their best to make not their human nature but their sex more alluring and direct their activities and lusts entirely towards sex. Human nature is thereby sacrificed to sex. If then a man wishes to satisfy his desire, and a woman hers, they stimulate each other’s desire; their inclinations meet, but their object is not human nature but sex, and each of them dishonors the human nature of the other. They make of humanity an instrument for the satisfaction of their lusts and inclinations, and dishonor it by placing it on a level with animal nature. Sexuality, therefore, exposes mankind to the danger of equality with the beasts."

TL;DR: Kant was fedora-ing before fedoras.
>>2254340
Not that he was unattractive, really. I'm sure he had a higher reason for his celibacy.

What's the difference between Human nature and the subnatures of man and woman?
Wouldn't it be the ultimate appreciation of human nature found in the perpetuation and unification of Humanity?
