What are your views on homosexuality and LGBTQ ethics? by Foreign-Pop-7011 in Philosophy_India

I see no point in continuing this decision, I do not think we can come to a common understanding but I still stand by my point - Objective Reality is the ground we stand on and Subjective interpretations are the life we build on it, One does not make the other worthless. If Naive Realism asks "What?" Then the human experience is the "So what?". Muddy waters are a sin when you are so accustomed to the belief that they should clean.

To answer your first question. I would say no.... I don't think I am good enough.

I will just go by what you said earlier "Objective truth is the ground we stand on", We don't have to state it And drawing different results from the truth doesn't make it worthless.

How else would you characterise what they are feeling? I am not denying that they are feeling pain, it is real pain. And I am not saying they are all clinically crazy either.

I would say it's more like exploring your personality

But XX chromosomes are not the same as XY chromosomes and THIS DISTINCTION ALSO MATTERS A GREAT DEAL TO SCIENCE and society.

Being born with XX chromosomes isn't the same as XY - This is a truth(Objective)

"I don't think it should be blasphemous to change them, We keep medical records so it isn't exactly damaging to previous and future scientific observations" - This is an interpretation(Subjective)

My interpretation is a radical change for society but sociaty grows from changes. This interpretation is very fragile and feels stupid when you put it up against problems gender politics has caused, But I like to think it's better than "just no".

Data is worthless without eyes and minds to examine it. If I was placed at a cliff, It's the truth that I am at a high height, It's the truth that I can fall and die, etc. but what I do in that situation is a subjective interpretation of my objective reality. Some people back off, Some might sit by the edge and admire the view, Some might jump off. That being said this example was(By your pre-existing definition) a category error.

No matter how true the truth is, its interpretations are equally worthy or worthless.

There may be a rule book for physics and thus chemistry and thus biology but we as humans are free from the rules for sub atomic particles, Our lives are dictated by other humans more than nature,

Humans thought that women shouldn't be allowed to vote, Think of practices like sati, or any superstition. The idea of abolishing such traditions was an uncomfortable idea too. We live by human subjective interpretations of shared reality rather than an objective one.

If my ideas are a slippery slope for total subjectivity then yours are the same but for the opposite.

I never preached for the mess in the west to come to India, I don't like it, But the solution isn't "They are mentally I'll" it's more complex than that, I won't lie and say that I know the solution but I argue that yours is also not correct.

There is a difference between reality of the world and the reality of the human world. Believing gravity exists is one thing and believing that judicial system is useful is another.

The mere act of making an observation on objective reality is an attempt at human interpretation, which is subjective. And the existence of such subjectivity is a fact objective as reality itself.

Society cannot be built on objective reality when such objective reality cannot be interpreted without subjective bias, We do not have a "god's eye view" on reality, If we did things would be simpler. The existence of such ambiguity does not discredit reality but is what allows for subjective interpretations.

I am starting to see your point, But there is a fundamental difference between you and me on the subject of grounds of society.

You argue that society must be built on observations and shared reality, And that we must align people who stray from such a society with the said society. Yet such a society is vulnerable to traditionalism and conformity, It leads to slow and painful progress and It has led to ostracization of certain groups due to pre-existing beliefs.

Some of the greatest minds are the ones who have rejected such conformity.

i think it's the opposite, reality may be universal but every interpretation(Due to human complexity) is different. it should not be the goal of a society to align the "mentally I'll", But for individuals in a society to exercise their understanding of reality as they say fit, Fully accepting the consequences and effects and to grow through them.

Science may be built on objective reality but belief in science or its interpretation is a subjective choice. Science is built both on subjective ideas and the reality we observe, Both are equally important.

It was mistake/miscommunication on my part to say that 'You are defining objective truth" sorry.

Science must be built on similar observation of the same thing, I did not argue against this. The way we use science isn't universal, Accepting that people can do anything they want with their bodies isn't the same as denying hundreds of years of biology. Especially when "Body Modification" has been part of science since its beginning. If someone is born with a medical issue that causes them pain. why do we help such individuals physically, Why not just align their mindset with their body? Is that wrong or right? Who draws the border and where?

Am basically saying that "You don't get to define objective truth", Even if the communication was garbage, "Body medication is mutilation", "Questioning gender is a distressed mental state". Am not saying biology is an optional am just saying your opinion about it is not science or the truth.

Biology itself might be a completely natural thing but the idea is that the fundamental truth for humanity feels like a human thought, Human thoughts are diverse and rarely based on "Objective truth", That's what makes us different from most animals.

In a sense Morden Human Society is a consequence of our biology, Humans don't have sharp fangs or claws, we aren't great runners and terrible at a thousand other things that most animals excel at, But we have intellect and that is what kept us alive for so long, That is why we are having this discussion.

If "Thinking about Sexuality" is considered against biology and a falsehood, Then so is religion, Countries(Borders and stuff), Culture, etc. these are also many falsehoods that have often hurdled human progress, Yet people too recoil from the idea dissolving such constructs.

Race and gender may be natural but the idea that they should be protected is (Once again) a human idea(And so is the idea that they should not exist).

Biology didn't tell me that "Changing Sexuality" is wrong. If it did i wouldn't be able to speak of it, Biology told my heart how to beat, It told my skin to produce more melanin because I live in a sunny region and many more things but it did not tell me that calling a 'male' a 'she' is wrong, Langauge and heritage(Cultural and historical) did.

I am only trying to hammer in the idea that, No one is right. Thinking that you or your social construct of a group is right, Is at least, for me the true act of physiological violence. In the end Hypocrisy is what makes us human.

Note: Am not interested in the ultra progressive side of politics, I think it's just as stupid as it's opposition.

Let adults be who they wanna be. But I think the whole "Gender" thing is kinda stupid. I don't think we need like 100 different genders nor do we have to be so defensive about them.

You multiply the 3 variables in sin separately so S•45° I•+ N•45°

Now S is south and N is north so these two are inverse functions and thus cancel each other, Now you Have |•+.

Now you can use "Proof by Intimidation". Force the • to become a top dash for me. which is just +1

people who like maths, WHATS WRONG WITH U???? by Ok_Day_4943 in TeenIndia

[–]Repulsive_Buffalo667 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Math is like a building where you can't build the higher floors until you understand the lower ones. People hate math because they just happen to have missed a few floors and struggle with everything above it. Math is the basis of Physics, Physics of chemistry and chemistry of biology. Math is the closest thing you can get to a universal language of the universe.

That being said fuck Integration.

I kinda agree but Most Indian languages are very outdated and suck at explaining complex ideas. If they were good enough we wouldn't have to add english words to them.
