Philosophy Dad: More Lying

http://philosophydad.blogspot.com/2008/12/more-lying.html

Tuesday, December 23, 2008. I thought I’d post a follow-up to the. Santa is a Tool. Post in light of some other posts that have been brought to my attention. Rob A. pointed me to a post by. SL would “happily lie” about the existence of Santa Claus, and presents six arguments in favor of lying to children. As I said before, I am not an anti-lying absolutist. Yet I did not find any of SL’s arguments at all persuasive. Here they are:. Just today, at Parenting Beyond Belief, Dale McGowan says that it “.

Books Do Furnish A Room: In a dark room we can do just as we like

http://booksdofurnisharoom.blogspot.com/2009/02/in-dark-room-we-can-do-just-as-we-like.html

Books Do Furnish A Room. Saturday, February 07, 2009. In a dark room we can do just as we like. In a nutshell, I think Johnson is too quick to downplay, 1, the damage that even "unenforceable" policies can do, and 2, the long-term social and political costs of states criminalizing, rather than merely ignoring, the "counter-economy" or radical sector more generally. The discretion such laws inevitably require. If everyone is guilty of something, officials can effectively target people. Against the arbitra...

Books Do Furnish A Room: Response to von Lohmann

http://booksdofurnisharoom.blogspot.com/2009/02/response-to-von-lohmann.html

Books Do Furnish A Room. Wednesday, February 04, 2009. Response to von Lohmann. Fred von Lohmann of EFF. Stopped by and left a comment that's worth addressing directly:. I'm not quite that pessimistic. I think the general approach of the settlement - a collecting society to solve the problem of getting permission for all the orphan works, along with an opt out right - is the right one. At the same time, I agree that we need to take steps to reduce the "Google monopoly over books" risk. That said, I don't.

Books Do Furnish A Room: December 2008

http://booksdofurnisharoom.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

Books Do Furnish A Room. Friday, December 12, 2008. Huh I drafted this post a year and a half ago, but just noticed yesterday that it was never "published." I suspect that I meant to get back to it and write more about how Prakash's arguments fail, but what I did write is free-standing enough that it might be of interest to jurisprudes. At first glance this just seems a fancy way of restating the obvious. Isn't this what Amar's intratextualism is all about, or Balkin's search for original principles,...

Books Do Furnish A Room: April 2008

http://booksdofurnisharoom.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html

Books Do Furnish A Room. Tuesday, April 15, 2008. Consequentialism and the demandingness objection. The demandingness objection against consequentialism- that, since it bases the right on maximizing the good, it demands perfection from moral agents- has never struck me as being all that problematic. Indeed, I'm rather puzzled that so many find it a reductio; what's so weird about the claim that you should always do better? Posted by X.Trapnel. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
