The Right to Bear Arms

TheSire

Democrats are certain that you have no rights to have an ultra super death bringing semi-automatic weapons. The Democrats have been on full alert to make sure we end the sales of the boom-boom sticks and stop the real terrorist groups like the NRA.

Shapiro vs Harris

TheSire

I usually don’t speak about Ben Shapiro or Sam Harris but they recently had a debate. I reject both materialism and Judaism. Both men are prominent and popular in current conservative circles.

Psychopaths and Morality

TheSire

Steve Hays once said: “Most atheists are physicalists. The brain generates the mind. So morality is located in the brain. … Although psychos have abnormal brains, they don’t have defective brains, since–according to naturalism–there’s no way the brain is supposed to be. And psychopaths can be highly functional. On this view, morality is arbitrary. Morality is an artifact of brain structures. If you change the wiring, you change morality. In theory, evolution might have made psychopathic brains normal rather than abnormal. The majority might have psychopathic brains. Empathetic humans would be abnormal. From a naturalistic perspective, that’s all there is … Continue reading Psychopaths and Morality
