Philosophy - November 2007

Deontology is an ethical theory concerned with duties and rights. Morality is the beliefs we use to determine whether our actions are right or wrong.

They are similiar in that they both concern duty, being right in our actions, and conducting ourselves morally.

I am at a loss. How else do these two relate to one another?
Help!

What is your opinion? How would you rate the quote if the scale is 1-10 ^_^ Thank You!

A free way to get high is to laugh till you cry, because the more you laugh the longer you last.

* Why we should laugh? When we laugh, our breathing quickens, which exercises the diaphragm, neck, stomach, face, and shoulders. Laughter increases the amount of oxygen in the blood, which not only helps healing and improves circulation, it also expands the blood vessels close to the skin’s surface. It can also lower the heart rate, dilate the arteries, stimulate the appetite, and burn up calories.

If you had to choose just one - who is the MOST culpable in war: The politicians who conceive it, the soldiers who allows themselves to be used as its instrument, or the people who put the politicians in power (or don't protest strongly enough)? Of course - this assumes a democracy with a volunteer army.

I don't really have an answer, I just wanted to get everyone's attention.

I say that there should be 2 sticky posts at the top of the Philosophy section.

The first should be: "DO NOT ASK WHAT IS THE MEANING OF LIFE?"

The second should be: "DO NOT ASK WHAT IS THE POINT OF LIFE"!


Who's with me?!

If it's all computerized, they could mess up occasionally because machines, like the humans that made them, are fallible. So sometimes I wonder, what if the "universal clock" or whatever got offset by like half a second or more every year and no one noticed, and over the years it keeps doing that so right now we think it's a certain time but it's "really" not. In other words, what we are calling an hour is really not, which explains why it seems like years are going faster & faster.

I want to know how we know exactly what time it is, and how we keep track of that to an EXACT science.
