Not Quite The UF Philosophy Corner by MatthewDBA2009-04-16 10:54:41
  I disagree. by Peace_man2009-04-16 11:58:41
    Macchiavelli overstates the point. by kelli2172009-04-16 12:19:35
      Maybe this comes down to what the purpose of by Peace_man2009-04-16 12:52:31
        Good doesn't need to be enabled. by subbywan2009-04-16 13:34:10
          Good does need to be enabled. by Peace_man2009-04-16 13:37:16
            Why does good need to be enabled? by subbywan2009-04-16 13:55:04
              As you just said yourself: by Peace_man2009-04-16 14:12:58
                Um, leaving it alone doesn't enable it. by subbywan2009-04-16 14:15:46
                  What makes you think this is not so? by Peace_man 2009-04-16 14:26:32
I certainly don't have any evidence to the contrary, except possibly some historical information that indicates that the sun arose even before you were born. Of course, this simply could mean that someone else was doing this before you were born, and at some time you (whether you knew it or not) took over that function. Or, possibly, this function is inherent in everyone -- they enable the sun's arising by not inhibiting it.

Maybe it is my limited ability to use language to express myself. What I mean is that laws must be enacted with consideration for not inhibiting good. If two laws are possible, both with the effect of preventing some evil, but one of them also inhibits some good, then the second should be chosen.

                    That isn't what was said previously though by subbywan2009-04-16 14:28:41
                      Hmm - how about this logic statement? by Peace_man2009-04-16 14:37:25
                        No. Because good would exist even with evil by subbywan2009-04-16 14:46:59
                          How does that constitute a 'no'? by Peace_man2009-04-16 14:50:35
                            Because good is there, regardless of laws by subbywan2009-04-16 14:55:22
                              I disagree. by Peace_man2009-04-16 15:02:10
                                Yes, it is. by subbywan2009-04-16 15:09:13
                                Protect and safeguard what? by Peace_man2009-04-16 15:13:32
                                Whatever it is you decide to protect and safeguard by subbywan2009-04-16 15:15:14
                                And we're back to the beginning. by Peace_man2009-04-16 15:23:44
                                No. Merely explored some of its nuances. by subbywan2009-04-16 15:28:37
                                I agree with that. Well, mostly :-) by Peace_man2009-04-16 15:38:09
