@Brian_Erickson I'm not familiar with "game theory" please elaborate |
@greenbacker its safe to say that a human is greater than the sum of his parts. |
@greenbacker your bird analogy a bird who has lost its wings is better off dead b/c there is no purpose regardless of its classification. |
@greenbacker Any argument that discounts human value discounts man's purpose and indirectly discounts all humanity. |
@greenbacker Any argument you make about humans just being more complex than animals leaves out some humans thereby discounting their value |
@greenbacker science does not account for purpose beyond reproduction. and if that is the only use, then the childless are useless |
@greenbacker if man is just a more complex animal then he is no more valuable, has no more purpose than any animal. = valueless |
@greenbacker no but you sure take the jelly out of the donut... so if someone is in a coma they cease to have value? |
@greenbacker So you are saying love is "faith"? And Reason is all that is between us an animals? what about the mentally retarded? |
@greenbacker what about love? |
@greenbacker to what do attribute that value if we are all made of animal parts? |
to what do attribute that value if we are all made of animal parts? |
@greenbacker science can't decide on many things that are common sense. I am wondering where you stand on human value over animals |
do you believe people have intrinsic value above other creatures? |
@greenbacker aside from biology what about reason, intellect, conscience? A soul? |
dictionaries compare traits and classify creatures according 2 those traits. the def is man made Man is no more an animal than he is a plant |
man's composition, ie basic building blocks,/plant he would have a number of things in common with plants, even more, rocks. is man a rock? |
@greenbacker Who said man is an animal? define animal. |
@greenbacker in terms of evolution theory |
@greenbacker I think we are saying the same thing. A predisposed predilection for an action that did not lead to reproduction would die off |
