Re: Need moral support

Sinister, I did not miss your point. I did, however, find it hilarious that you thought that I did.

As for asking for moral support from a religious website - well, perhaps you missed my pun. Who wouldn't expect to find lots of morals on a religious website?

There is a serious side to this, as all 3 of us pointed out. The seriousness is in the herd mentality using emotions (including as you pointed out, withholding of romantic love) to promote behavior that is actually unhealthy. That's a lot of surface area to try to not cut while shaving, and there are a number of deadly infections that are resurfacing that get into the body through a cut or scrape (MRSA, VRE...).

True, that's only one reason, just like it was only one reason that I mentioned that we wear clothes. I only listed one good reason, but I could have listed many more. As for the social constructs regarding clothing, to a certain extent, there isn't anything wrong with dual purposes for clothing. The dual purpose for clothing is a communication device to other people, stating what our overall intentions for the general time period are.

As philosophers, we should question the memes to find out if there is a sound reason for them, an unsound reason, or even a detrimental reason - then eliminate the detrimental actions. This is a function of wisdom.
