Political disagreements are just a reflection of a fundamental philosophical disagreements in ontology, epistemology, and ethics.

Once you sort your foundation, the house you build is grounded and can withstand the conditions (based). Likewise, if a foundation is weak you don't need to even attack the house, just attack the foundation and the house collapses on its own.

Sort out your ontology, epistemology, and ethics.

God created the universe and has given mankind moral commandments by which they're to abide and by which all men will inevitably be judged.

"Love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you.” ( Mt 5.44 , Lu 6.27 , Lu 6.3 ) “Do not use force against an evil man.” ( Mt 5.39 ) “Do not resist evil with evil.” “Forgive and you will be forgiven.” (Lu 6.37 ) “Do not be anxious about your life.”( Lu 12.22 ) “In everything do to others as you would have them do to you.” (Mat 7.12 )

Government is necessarily evil. Sucks to be you.

Hello? Who are you talking to?

What rebuttal? Someone trying desperately to spin the explicit commands of God to be more convenient to their preferences is just that. Christ never told any human to use violence against anyone ever. Not once. And he forbade it explicitly multiple times, including an explicit brute blanket moral ban in the Sermon on the Mount.

The person who suggested they're a mere voluntarist who doesn't subscribe to the NAP and only cares about what's voluntary. You don't realize this implies you're with the ancaps.

>What rebuttal?
Exactly, you have no rebuttal. You tried to spin the scripture and a mere copy/pasta of greek while I made a posted that had arguments and proper interpretations of the Greek language within the historical and cultural context of what's written in the scripture.

>Christ never told any human to use violence against anyone ever.
So you're telling me you've never heard the story about when Jesus drove the merchants out of the temple by force? But I thought you were a Bible scholar??

Not an argument and I never once negated the concept of martyrdom.

>>131177517

Ancap implies NAP and rights. Voluntarist doesn't. Ancap is therefore misleading, while unqualified anarchist isn't. Jesus fuck.

>implying
You believe whatever you want lad - you're welcome to it.

>So you're telling me
I'm telling you exactly what I'm telling you. God is God and judges men's souls. He could have destroyed the entire universe and everyone in it instead of what He'd done and nothing would change - moral commandments would remain the same.

You're literally just repeating the point that I just got done refuting in my last post.

Ok. We can all see for ourselves that I posted that pic that breaks the interpretation down with arguments and everything and all you did was copy/pasta some Greek as if that as a rebuttal in any shape or form.

Apparently I have to break this down for you step by step. *sigh*

Premise 1: All exchanges should be voluntary

I don't hold to the NAP. I couldn't care less if people who do believe in it happen to not disobey God in some circumstances by adhering to it - the NAP doesn't sufficiently cover human moral obligation and is therefore wrong. That's a fact dipshit~

Sorting your philosophy out is difficult and takes.many years, but that's why it's such a beautiful process.

Study logic, languages (English is a must), philosophy and history. Lift every day, and start recognizing all the propaganda that comes from jewllywood. And then, you will start sorting your philosophy out.

Learn what it means to be a western man. We are the the ones who inherited the will of the Greeks, the Romans and the Christians of the middle ages.

we're now suffering from a cancer of retarded high iq people playing to make knowledge with the wrong foundations, for example, trying to treat everything as phisics, overestimating maths, even when they fail miserably to reach any deep understanding and just create more problems

on the economy, thanks to mises we can render some economy laws from some apriori truths that cut the bullshit of fraudsters, keynessians while explaining the past and correctly predicting future events

The Munchhausen trilemma and Godel's incompleteness theorem makes all of philosophy pointless from the perspective of absolute truth.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%BCnchhausen_trilemma
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del%27s_incompleteness_theorems

Pragmatically however, I think that there is a number of axioms which are useful for human flourishment
> Mind independent reality exists
> Language is an imperfect attempt to describe mind independent reality
> Some types of mathematics appear to correspond to this mind independent reality
> Social reality (our beliefs, relationships, perspectives etc.) is heavily (but not entirely) constructed by language
> History has happened, though not always as has been written in the history books
> Iterable individual and collective surviving and thriving is preferable to death and unnecessary suffering
> Human consciousness exists
> Infinity is kind of a strange idea but for some reason it makes calculus work
> Our ability to discern patterns in mind independent reality is a recognition of ontological sets of objects

>"God created the world and gave humanity absolute moral commandments by which they are to abide" a mistaken propositional commitment?"

>1. Implying creation of the world
creation understood in an antique perspective -ordinary, that of someone who has no tacit knowledge of any creative process or labour-, not creative as an emergent event, which would be in contradiction with a designer of the posterior events, but as an act of generation out of nothing not from previous layers of anything

therefore, assuming nothing and then something, which is a secondary claim previous and implyied inside the quote, which is not an axiom and is not valid at all

>2. Implying revelations are more than any other human recopilation of literature, history, myths, wisdom, tradition, codes of conducts and stories.

It takes faith to pick any of these commandments just because the claim that "god gave them" is not consistent with any form of reality, as it's a claim based on faith and not methods that grant accuracy and consistency withing one's logical arguments, within emphirical reality.
>>
>>131184637
that's surprising, most of the Doctor I have seen were atheist. But still it's near impossible to actually believe in God, if you reason far enough.
But I personally feel that 'need' to believe in God is ingrained in us, Thus the Unsort in my mind
>>
>>131184796
It takes faith to commit to any belief about the world more ambitious than solipsism. You believing you're not a brain in a vat takes faith on your part, because you very well could be.

Creation =/= arranging pre-existing things. Artists don't create anything for instance - they only arrange things that are already there.

>Implying revelations are more than
They could be. You can't say they couldn't be, because they logically definitively could be.
>>
>>131185507
See, I came to the opposite conclusion.
We do need to believe in God or gods, though. Both on a personal level and on a societal one. Those who don't are either replacing something else for their god (an idol), non-thinking, believe others believe in a caricature being that is God, emotionally against it or are mentally unstable. Pretty rude, I know, but accurate.

no, you're using sophistry

ockham contribution to philosophy is straight rekting all the bullshit like that instantly

if you're bringing problems, you yourself aren't solving to the table, it's not a valid claim, you're just tring to make a wrong okay trought making it complicated with different wrongs

do you know how sophisticated were the geocentric models of the planetary system?

they worked and made sense, even if they were just absolutly wrong

that's what happens when you let an intelligent/high IQ idiot with the wrong mindware play to understand the world, they just make themselves and you more stupid with facade and delusions

>>131185624
all the "could be" are on the trash can when you settle an accurate method to digest reality and your own thoughts

>>131187302
Indeed. Religion is necessary. A lot of people imagine God as something He is not. They imagine something closer to Zeus; something in creation, something caused, temporal. That's not the monotheistic God, though.

you don't need to prove false a claim when it's founded on incorrect and cheap assumptions, it falls by it's own nenligences

these tricks can convince a normie, even when you're a really neerd and asocial normie, but not a deep thinker, because it's loaded with things that are not valid at all

For myself to actually be a brain in a vat you're making up a second universe containing this one, which implies knowledge of the form of the continent

Universe B is us, part of A's content
Universe A is the continent

When assuming that, these are the assumptions/information/claims implied (that you obviously not realice):
>Universe B is continent of a recipient mirror of itself;
>Assuming the same foundations of reality/laws of nature/singularity
>Assuming an universe can render a version/simulation of itself
>Assuming a brain can function inside a vat
>Assuming a simulation/3D vidya can resemble reality
>Assuming a vivid dream/subjective expirience is the same as an actually real life expirience TM

It's all non sense and can't be taken seriously, it's ephistemologycal nenligence, you're steping and making stupid claims over ephistemological limits without realicing them, that's the arrogance of the stupid. And you even armor yourself like it's as valid as everything else. That's literally the mask of sophism/relativism
