Do you think that one faulty idea or aspect of an argument invalidates it entirely?
    #13990369 - 02/19/11 02:53 PM (12 years, 11 months ago)

If you for example agree with a particular philosopher on most of their ideas, but disagree with some, does it mean that the parts you agree with are perhaps also faulty?

More importantly, how do you reconcile that?

Not necessarily, unless they're logically connected.

maybe yes, sometimes, somewhat, on some occasions or something similar to that.

You're really determined to start some trouble today.

I know.  People say dogs give unconditional love.  Having owned dogs most of my life and having been a dog trainer and done lots of rescue work I can confidently say that love has nothing to do with it and unconditional has nothing to do with it. People make the same foolish judgment errors about other humans too. Pay attention for five minutes and the truth of the matter becomes obvious. This is a very clear demonstration that most of humanity lies to itself on a continual basis. And that, dear friend, is why each generation talks change and nothing ever really changes. :satansmoking:

Most people who say something interesting will make a few 'errors' in the process. If it's 100% flawless then the author is either a genius or just uninteresting. Most likely the latter.

I think the idea that dogs don't love you unconditionally is false.

But I agree with all the rest. :-)

When I first started posting here, in '07, I'd always notice the faulty (or what I thought were) ideas or perspectives of the posters here.  I don't argue nearly as much as I used to and have learned to (partially) accept the dark side of other posters.  I learned to do that by recognizing the dark, faulty side within myself. 

I believe we aren't limited to one perspective, so my answer to your first question would be no.  Sometimes the sun shines and sometimes it rains.  When the sun shines I try not to get hung up on the rainy moments.  So to answer your second question, I realize it's just rain and know that it's impermanent.

Obviously you lack experience with living things, (besides plants maybe)

Get a dog, beat it, don't feed it, and otherwise ignore it, and then tell me about the unconditional love. :tongue:
