The weight of everything near every high tide (iow right under the moon) is reduced by a tiny but non-zero proportion. Precision pressure meters or transducers (measuring downward pressure, iow scales) can detect this. This pressure variation is gravitation and space warping due to the mass of...

Panda rights activists need to weigh in.

In my understanding it does not, but I do not know, what say you?

Would you just as confidently agree therefore that in no Christian marriage will a husband deliberately elicit emission to pornography? Maybe I can understand your position better if you say "yes of course." Fair enough. Agreed. Then sue for divorce. Or don't; try to reconcile.

Plain. I'm happy to be wrong about this Skeeter and if I am it's because you've changed your tune. Here's you for example: Your arrogance aside, this is utilitarian thought. The thought of a utilitarian. But so what if I'm wrong? I'm more than happy to be wrong about this...

This same argument didn't, shouldn't and wouldn't work with slavery Skeeter, why would or should it work with abortion?

Republicans support reduced gun control measures and Democrats support reduced vote control measures.

Excellent. @Skeeter

270 LBS 5 4 (1-2 rnr) Extenuating circumstances probably prevented me from completing that second set of five. I mean extenuating circumstances existed (like last week, but different circumstances then), and they probably prevented me from getting to five reps before reaching 0 rnr. So if not...

OK, I'm thinking the north pole at the time would have been a seven million square km blanket of solid ice, 2km thick, underneath a seven million square km, 100 km thick blanket of granite (roughly circular, about 3000km diameter). Its edges would have been assaulted by the rest of the...

OK but it doesn't mean that 1200 years ago wasn't 1200 years ago. My understanding is that gravity is the warping, that mass warps space and that that warping is called gravity.

The election was lost due to covid not fraud, there's nothing the president could have done about it. His bombast which I rather enjoyed did not mesh with an actual global lockdown pandemic. People worried more than they should have, and it was all just because his personality is bombastic, he...

Yeah. What benefits the most people the most is what's approved as moral in utilitarianism. What benefits the most people the most, when there's only one fertile woman alive but she's a lesbian and refuses to marry a man? Is it to honor her absolute right, and thus the species ends, or is it...

I didn't do that. AB passed that test with flying colors, just took a while for him to come clean. Skeeter can't pass that test, not if he's honest. It's because he believes in absolute rights. Skeeter doesn't.

It doesn't matter how long it takes someone to get something right. It doesn't make it not right just because it takes a long time.

His utilitarian moral philosophy answers the following wrongly: His utilitarianism believes in rights so long as believing in rights gives his utilitarian calculator the right answer. As soon as his calculus tells him rights are no longer the utilitarian optimum, then rights go out the window...

I'm thinking . . . that antediluvian subterranean water basically would be liquid where the ocean is currently liquid, and ice where it's currently ice. I think I really want to know what the north pole's seabed looks like.

Like you know a lot about avoiding mangled morality lol.

One of the popular ways pedophiles rape kids is marrying a single mother, the more kids the better. Perfect disguise. All they have to do is lie through their teeth unendingly to everybody, all to avoid getting caught, so they can keep on raping kids. Not hard for them since lying is their...

OK. I'm not supporting him or not-supporting him, I'm just stating a fact. The guy has the Midas touch right now and any Democratic strategists or leading thinkers (see the OP-ED of the New York Times for many of them) would love to have something like that in their party and on their side...
