Not only do I dispute the claim that the Golden Rule is the universal morality, but it is foolish to assume that someone who claims one truth is therefore correct in all he says.
You for example 'point to the Golden Rule' yet quite happily lie about other things - yet you think you are 'the one based on truth'?
Originally posted by whodeyI'm sorry you find it so taxing to provide some clarification regarding your construal of 'faith' within your own thread that is supposed to center on that very topic. But, unfortunately, if you fail to provide some, then it's like I already said: I have no idea what you are talking about.
I knew it. You are determined to give me a headache by dragging out one of bbarr's logic rants. I don't have time now but at some point I will try to address this question........later.......maybe. 😛
You keep talking about deliberation over courses of action. That, definitionally, has to do with the subject of practical reasoning, but in the course of my studies of that particular topic I have never seen the term 'faith' play any clear role. So, I leave it up to you to explain how it relates to that subject.
Relatedly, I would also appreciate some explanation for why you wrap the subject of 'faith' up with practical reasoning, apparently to the exclusion of theoretical reasoning. If S claims, "I have faith that God exists", then please explain to me what I should take that to mean, specifically in terms of his deliberations over courses of action.
