The nachos I just made came out of the over soggy, because I put too much salsa on them. FWP Due to the recession the construction of my gf's parent's condo in Grand Cayman was cancelled, so now we have to vacation in the Dominican Republic instead. FWP Because we are vacationing the...

That's why I am here, only paying 10k a year is a hell of a lot better than paying 40k for Brooklyn or Fordham. Although going to school in Newark fucking blows.

Also, Reyes' skill set plays much better in that ballpark than Wright's. But, it seems like everyone is expecting him to get Crawford type money, it will be interesting to see if the Wilpon's can raise that kind of money to keep him. It would have been nice if the Yanks gave Jeter the kind of...

So then what do you think makes something moral vs. immoral? Also, so what if America does hate gays? It wouldn't matter, because our culture would say that hating gays is not immoral.

So now you are no longer a cultural relativist, but a utilitarian?

But this also for absolutely no criticism to other sets of morals and leads to really bad situations. And is for all intents and purposes useless. Ex. a culture says that it is morally right that they should kill thousands of people through acts of terrorism. You cannot say that action is...

It is only a fact that what people THINK is moral is based on culture, but just because a culture thinks something is moral does not make it moral.

Of course it is more beneficial to save a human life over an animal's. But that is not what the discussion is about, because we have the opportunity to save both lives. And basing morality on the value we place on it is completely unfair because we have no way to determine how much value...

I have already discussed a lot of the problems that come with basing morality off of culture but if you accept the theory and live with the consequences of it than that is fine. However, our culture also says that destroying our environment is morally wrong and animal argiculture is much much...

Why are human lives worth more than an animals?

That article is complete and utter bullshit. We would farm significantly less land if everyone switched to a vegan diet, because WE NEED TO FARM MORE LAND TO GROW CROPS TO FEED THE ANIMALS WE THEN EAT. It is an incredibly inefficient method of consumption. I am at work and do not have the...

I do think human suffering as my problem, I donate to charities as well as work at a food pantry. But I also do not support human suffering, just as most people would not support something that causes human suffering if they knew it did so. Which is what I'm saying using animal products causes...
