No one on this planet is civilized if they need laws in order to behave morally. Being given permission still doesn't make it right.
Anyone feel like it's time to speed things up and stop babying the public?
I'm being serious. It's like a gut feeling. It's like whatever it is you are doing to bring the normies along it's time to step up your game.
I don't actually. If the only thing stopping a person from committing a crime is the law then they are the problem. I don't care what race, creed or religion that they are. If this planet and the future of humanity has any hope then its people need to understand right from wrong and act accordingly, without needing laws to tell them how to behave.
You got me on the response. Well done.
Ship of Theseus
It is supposed that the famous ship sailed by the hero Theseus was kept in a harbor as a museum ship, and as the years went by, some of the wooden parts began to rot and were replaced by new ones; then, after a century or so, every part had been replaced. The question then is whether the "restored" ship is still the same object as the original.
If it is, then suppose the removed pieces were stored in a warehouse, and after the century, technology was developed that cured their rot and enabled them to be reassembled into a ship. Is this "reconstructed" ship the original ship? If it is, then what about the restored ship in the harbor still being the original ship as well?
