You have sh!t poor reading skills. I said that there are exceptions to what I said was only a generalization. Maybe if you spent more time reading and less time spamming, you might be able to contribute to a conversation for a change.



Sure, isn't that convenient. Just ignore those that do not satisfy your tastes. That is like saying that spinach is not food because you don't like it.

I think the "why" question has to come first. Shouldn't you have an answer to "why should we help these people?" before talking about what we could do?

I do take your point that many philosophical questions are a bit frivolous in comparison to struggling for food. But if they were raised here, would they do any different? It seems like you are already dismissing taking drastic action, and are talking about the small differences you can make. Why is that?

You don't have to answer, I'm just making the point that the "why" questions are important.

I am going to risk self contradiction, but whatever.
