Moral Science

Si alguien corriera alguna vez el riesgo de olvidar que la magia puede trastornar los equipos científicos y tecnológicos, solo habría que recordarle el incidente de la Estación Móvil de Excavaciones YF-77. Esa pobre y desdichada estación tuvo un mago como visitante, y ese mago perdió el control de sus poderes mientras la estación minera se movía a un nuevo punto de perforación. Privada de todo control de posición, la estación pasó de una órbita estable a un rumbo de colisión contra un planeta desértico y muerto.

Catherine Lius Streitschrift ist eine scharfe Polemik, die die Grundlagen der Klassenbildung und des Klassenkampfes in den gegenwärtigen liberalen Einflusssphären der Vereinigten Staaten ohne Umschweife angreift.

The idea of moral evil has always held a special place in philosophy and theology because the existence of evil has implications for the dignity of the human and the limits of human action. Andrew Michael Flescher proposes four interpretations of evil, drawing on philosophical and theological sources and using them to trace through history the moral traditions that are associated with them.

Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysics of Morals (1785) remains one of the most influential works on moral philosophy. The German philosopher Immanuel Kant sets out by explaining the core concepts and principles of moral theory and demonstrating that they are normative for rational agents. He argues that the world of understanding is more fundamental than the world of sense. Therefore the moral law, which clearly applies to the world of understanding, also applies to the world of sense because the world of understanding is primary.

Whilst trying to extricate himself from a deadly situation involving a local businessman, Drew, a 33-years-old ex-soldier witnesses an alien takeover, a silent invasion, in Dumbarton, Scotland. The worldwide result of this, because it happened everywhere, is the depopulation of Earth by more than 98%. Alien towers and barriers, inaccessible to humans, now exist where once stood cities and towns.

Konservative bevorzugen Hunde, Progressive eher Katzen. Und Wutbürger sind eigentlich Ekelbürger. Hier werden keine Klischees bedient - sondern der Kern unserer Moral freigelegt. In diesem Hörbuch wirft der Philosoph und Bestsellerautor Philipp Hübl unter anderem die folgenden Fragen auf: Was wäre ich ohne meinen Charakter? Darf man zwischen Menschenleben abwägen? Wie entsteht Fremdenfeindlichkeit? Hübl zeigt, wie Emotionen unsere moralischen Urteile bestimmen. Wie unsere Werte und unsere politische Haltung in Gefühlsdispositionen verankert sind.

God Money, God Power, Where is God Love? is not about religion, and it is not about politics. It is a message I wanted to share with the world that money is not as important if our hearts are filled with so much love. Love leads us to understanding and shows gratitude toward others. I express my deepest love for humanity, and my heart is open for all the children in this world, believing that these young children are the ones who open the doors to a better future. This cannot be done by one person alone. It starts in the home with proper guidance and values as the foundation.

Un mot peut tuer ! Pour déstabiliser et détruire, les armes de la malveillance, de la manipulation et de la persécution sont innombrables. La perversité ordinaire d'un conjoint, d'un parent, d'un supérieur peut briser un couple, défaire une vie, ruiner une carrière professionnelle. La loi du plus fort règne le plus souvent dans la famille, l'entreprise, la société. L'agresseur mène patiemment son œuvre paralysante et meurtrière. Sa victime se laisse peu à peu enfermer dans le piège prévu pour son supplice.

In Animals, Robots, Gods, acclaimed anthropologist Webb Keane provides a new vision of ethics, defined less by our minds, religion or society, and more by our interactions with those around us. Drawing on ground-breaking research by fieldworkers around the world, he explores the underpinnings of our moral universe. Along the way we investigate the ethical dilemmas of South Asian animal rights activists, Balinese cockfighters, Japanese robot fanciers -- even macho cowboys.

But as an adult, she found herself in poor health and, after trying cures of every kind, a doctor finally ordered her to eat meat.

Eventually, he dared her to cook her way through his meat counter.

Among all life on Earth, we alone experience rich moral emotions, follow complex rules governing how we treat one another, and engage in moral dialogue. But how did human morality evolve? And can humans become morally evolved? In A Better Ape, Victor Kumar and Richmond Campbell draw on the latest research in the biological and social sciences to explain the key role that morality has played in human evolution.

In Avoiding the Worst, Tobias Baumann lays out the concept of risks of future suffering (s-risks). With a focus on s-risks that are both realistic and avoidable, he argues that we have strong reasons to consider their reduction a top priority. Finally, he turns to the question of what we can do to help steer the world away from s-risks and towards a brighter future.

The Democrat Party, best-selling author David Limbaugh claims, has sold itself to left-wing extremists, losing its mind and soul. Limbaugh charts how the Democrat Party, unable to come to grips with the Clinton scandals, unable to accept the defeat of Al Gore in 2000, and unable to accept its current minority status, has embraced a politics of ideological hate and nihilism.

A cultural and intellectual history of sincerity, from its emergence during the Protestant Reformation to its present incarnations and adversaries. People have long been duped by "straight-talking" politicians, confessional talk-show hosts, and falsely earnest advertisers. As sincerity has become suspect, the upright and honest have taken refuge in irony.
