Assumption. (And further assumption around what is a "virtuous life".)All those that seek to be moral are those that seek a virtuous life.
Assumption.All thoughtful humans are this that seek to be moral.
Product of at least three assumptions.Therefore, all thoughtful humans are those that seek the virtuous life.
Your comment is rooted in the degenerate idea that there is something wrong with humanity, that who and what we are is bad/wrong. Your self-loathing is a sickness.Heh Fuji, can you enlighten me on how your life affirming moral code is anything other than an appeal that everyone else should be dragged down to the lowest common denominator?
You are dishonest. I will waste no more time with you. You have no honour, no integrity or value.RLD, what you have to show is that evolution does not proceed through natural selection. That's going to be a tall order.
Well said. Hit......... nail ............... head.No Fuji, like many others on this board and elsewhere in life, I just don't define humanity by such a narrow set of behavious as you do. I think we are capable of many things, including trying to treat others well, being humble when we screw up, trying to limit the amount of time we actually set out to lie, cheat and steal, and indeed, sometimes we just act like jerks even. It's you with the ultra cynical view of humanity, reducing who we are to just one behavior found in the dark. Deep down you loathe yourself, but lacking some of the humility and good will most of humanity has, you simply turn a cowardly, dishonest lifestyle into a virtue to make yourself feel better. THAT is self-loathing.
I agree with all that. I just don't agree that it applies in the way that you think to sexual hypocrisy. Elsewhere in human behavior I agree.No Fuji, like many others on this board and elsewhere in life, I just don't define humanity by such a narrow set of behavious as you do. I think we are capable of many things, including trying to treat others well, being humble when we screw up, trying to limit the amount of time we actually set out to lie, cheat and steal, and indeed, sometimes we just act like jerks even.
More blubbering. I never reduced who and what we are to just one behavior, that's your routine misrepresentation of me. You really can't make points here without misrepresentation, can you?It's you with the ultra cynical view of humanity, reducing who we are to just one behavior found in the dark. Deep down you loathe yourself, but lacking some of the humility and good will most of humanity has, you simply turn a cowardly, dishonest lifestyle into a virtue to make yourself feel better. THAT is self-loathing.
i see 27 pages of you and others writing long ass paragraphs and fuji saying "you're wrong" then more huge paragraphs from you guys. you are beyond caring you are obsessed. he is so in your head.Simon, you appear innocent of the distinction between voicing an opinion and caring. That probably explains why you delighted in telling stories of assaulting people.
that is the beautiful thing about this, he is not trying to win, he is making you guys make yourselves look dumb.

I would just feel better if he posted his garbage elsewhere
Feel free to stop reading this thread. Whether you admit it here or not, though, you would improve yourself as a person if you would learn to see beyond your narrow ideology. Even if you don't change your views, you should at least be conscious of what your assumptions are, versus what are facts. It would do you some good.I am not trying to convince Fuji that he is wrong.

Lets just say, I have proven many of his hair brained schemes for what they are (really bad ideas), yet he is unable unwilling to compromise on any issuethat is the beautiful thing about the internets.
1- it lets people say what ever they want
2- it has an ignore function if you don't want to see what is said
he ain't hurting anyone but his wife/girlfriend so what does it matter to you?
maybe i am different in the fact that i don't really care or think about what people on the internets say unless at that moment in my life i am talking to them. when i surf away from the site i stop thinking about you people and i don't think about what might be said here and there. with that said, in order for me to get along with fuji while i am here i don't get into conversations with him on things i know we will argue about.Lets just say, I have proven many of his hair brained schemes for what they are (really bad ideas), yet he is unable unwilling to compromise on any issue
I find his arguments to be self-serving and designed to be misleading, to change the point of focus or an oppourtunity for him to boast
I detest untrustworthy, disrespectful or self-absorbed people.
I just plain do not like him.
"I feel better when he is not around"
I had Fuji on ignore for quite a while
However it was "Kick a Fuji day", so off ignore he came.
While it has been interesting, I sadly suspect he will continue to try and deceive readers here
So he will go back on ignore at some point
No, all you've ever done is repeat your ideology over and over again without realizing that you've proven nothing. YOU think you've proven something because YOU think your statements are self evident. But that's only because your intellect is too limited to know the difference between a fact and an assumption. You routinely give out your assumptions as if they were facts. Worse, you pretend to be an advocate of free market economics, but you appear not to even understand the underlying economics. Instead you've bought into an overly simplistic market ideology that is not supported by the data.Lets just say, I have proven many of his hair brained schemes for what they are
