All right, so the intent is what matters rather than the outcome of it. But that makes all of my examples with good outcomes be immoral, wouldn't it?

Yes, I know. I'm using it as an example,...

But if something were independent of human perception, wouldn't that make it absolute by definition?

So it is the intent rather than either the action or the outcome that determines the morality...

So regardless of our thoughts, God has the final word on ethics, eh. So how do we know what is ethical or not? Do we follow the Bible? Or is it inherent within us although it originated from Him? How...

Ahh, but I have a point, I am going to tie this in a little later.

Wouldn't that be: if ethics/etc. were outside of man, then there would be a force that would condemn me for killing? Whichever,...

I am glad that we have come to the conclusion that objective ethics are a myt

A new question: is it possible to argue an objective, i.e. undeniable, point in a non-objective system?

If you are new to programming, I would suggest the Dummies' Guide to C++; but that is if you have absolutely no experience whatsoever with it.

A conclusion can be a question, what I concluded incidentally was a question.

Yet is killing just? And it says: "You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's...

I've heard that google has (*gasp*!) doubled its size for a total of 2000 Megs of space(!); has anyone else heard this or am I being mislead (again)?

Is there such a thing as Objective ethics? I was reading some of the threads on the "ethics of hacking" and "hackers' ethics", and I came to the conclusion: is there really such a thing as objective...

I am thinking about building a blade server and some blades, but I am confused on building blades. Does anyone have any experience on the matter or know any books?

I am looking at some parts online and found a DVD burner, but do DVD burners burn Cds?

Only the greatest philosophers have ever questioned their axioms, and only the worst (viz. Ayn Rand) have not. If no one questions their own premises, the inferences from it are utterly useless.

Yes it took me a few years of study to finish all three volumes (agh!). I read several biographies of Marx, wasn't three of his children buried there too?

Take Rand's "corollaries" to "A is A":...

First of all, I am not a communist. I am an anarchist, the communists and anarchists have historically been rivals. But the communists are divided into several camps: real marxists, leninists, and...

Has anyone read anything on alternate forms of reasoning methodologies, e.g. Dialectics? I am familiar with dialectics, but is there anything else?

What should I do to get better at programming? How should I go about it? What should I program? (I got C++) What should I do to get better?

Sweet Zombie Jesus! Beer doesn't cause fat! What next...the earth revolving around the sun?!

I need a new processor and motherboard (the one I salvaged has 900 MHz and 128 SyncDRAM), but I have a limit of $225, can I get a better one? Where should I look, or should I even bother looking?...

Simpler is ussually better. I programmed a site and it's principally two tables(lookey www.comradered.uni.cc) Sometimes more is not always better. Its like music, you could put 50 ideas into 50...

I have Borland's C++ BuilderX...but I'll look at those links anyways...

I am working on a calculator, and I need to know: is there any code in C++ for a button?

I am relatively completely new to this subject. This fascinates me nonetheless, though!

Does anyone know the code in either perl or C++ for perceptrons?

Perceptrons, for those who don't know, are like electronic neurons in AI.

I thought I answered the first question, I want it to use it for a PC, more specifically programming and some gaming.

My budget is up to 5 grand, but cheaper in price is preferable.

Bah, its not rude! I have some experience with dealing with hardware...with some training I could build my own system in a couple of months(if I had the parts).

But back to the subject matter at...
