I keep coming to this profoundly problematic post-marxist identitarian tidbit and, again and again, ask myself...

What the hell happened to the smart and thoughtful Suzianne I knew?
She naturally fights racism and sexism.

Idiot white boys here routinely call me racist because I speak out against them and their racism. It's also no surprise these same people are as sexist as they come.

Go figure.

Of course! And there's the natural law ethics school espoused by Finnis to pursue that avenue of thought.

P.s. Ethics and morals are used interchangeably by moral philosophers and ethicists in over 90% of philosophers, roughly estimation. Let's live it at "most".

"Morals refer to a sense of right or wrong. Ethics, on the other hand, refer more to principles of "good" versus "evil" that are generally agreed upon by a community. "

This isn't a point to split hairs over.

Unless, of course, it goes against you.

No, God is the only fixed point, you sure do read into things not there and jump on them as if your fixed point is the only one that matters as you judge others. A fixed point all mankind is held to isn't given to us by other men but by one greater than all of us, if you think you have "THE KNOWLEDGE" so you can rebuke because of what you believe is true, then you are putti ...[text shortened]... or your sake you are also doing those things you are condemning others for, you will have no excuse.
Still, you claim everyone's "fixed point" should be the same as yours. Of course.

Found your quote. Smh. Pro-tip: Stop googling for stuff that requires actual study.

I thought you actually had some original thoughts and arguments. It is my mistake entirely. I should have known better before engaging. Enjoy Xmas, kid.

Judging people by the color of their skin is definitionally racist.

I am so sorry for you. Another one bites the dust.

Now where have I said that?

Don't let the door hit you on your way out.

Each of us is mutable; the only fixed point would be God's. You constantly assume much and make judgment calls about people, showing your disdain for people while ignoring topics.

Basically in every post you've made over the last year. You claim God is the only determinant yet you present his way as your way. It's kinda like the tail wagging the dog.

My disdain is for people who claim to know God. The "holier-than-thou" types. The high-horse types who claim their way is God's way. Then they say that God's way is the only way, when what they mean is their way is the only way.

Yeah, I take exception to that.

You show your disdain no doubt about that, not a lot of love and grace. You make charges against me and more times than not it only comes from your imagination, not something you can point to that I said. You realize don't you that when you lay charges about how wrong someone else is you are claiming you know the right way, so it is your way or not!

You take exception when you say something and people just don't automatically jump to accept what you claim is true, and that by your definition is the holier than thou type, you don't reason with people you just make declarations. I'll discuss what I believe and show why I believe it, you just show your disdain, you should spend some time looking in the mirror.

I'm offering reasons for my position you are more than welcome to dispute them, but you don't you just insult.

It doesn't take a lot of imagination to deal with reality instead of making stuff up.
