I don't think... I know.
Hym "My feelings have nothing to do with it. It's knowledge. I know my account of reality is correct. Your argument is basically 'well, there's no evidence I shot you so you're not dead.' And don't worry about what I'm goong to do about it. You're like Stan Smith from that episode of American Dad where he feels that Steve is getting soft so he starts dressing like a teenager and dollowing Steve around and bullying him until he stands up to him (Stan). All the while using this carrying a box of oranges up several flights of stairs. Insisting that 'if you don't do things the right way you won't have a good life.' The conflict resolves after Steve hires Stan's old bully Stelio Kantos to beat up Stan. He prefaces the beatdown by saying 'What do you care how I get the oranges up the stairs?' and that Stelio was going to beat him until he (Stan) says that the oranges are 'up the stairs.' It's a good episode from the best show (arguably). But it applies. And you are Machiavellian. Look... Hold on... searching... 'Machiavelli believed that public and private morality had to be understood as two different things in order to rule well. As a result, a ruler must be concerned not only with reputation, but also must be positively willing to act unscrupulously at the right times.' See that? Who does that sound like? Not me. I've said repeatedly that the very idea of a private morality disproves belief in a purported proposition ethic (not in so many words but implicitly)"
