you give me some meme answer from Richard Dawkins

it's determined to have traumatic events like PTSD from rape

or physical assault

where what began @Shakti conscious thought? nerve cells? matter?

can you be a tad more specific

it's coded into the brain and because it's 'too nuanced' to splain, it's just a gimmie for the theory

you are the one making a claim the burden is on you to be more specific

I will be glad to reconstruct your answer

pin that shit

Ok I'm a materialist determinist so I think all events are determined by prior causes, the brain not being an exception to cause and effect. The brain is very complicated so it gives us the illusion of free will in our ability to act and make decisions, but ultimately we are the result of prior causes

>the brain is very complicated

you can't ask vague questions and sperg about the responses <:omegalul:427310806267592716>

Slaves limit innovation

yeah well the south was full of nonwhites

@Skrrt the north was dependent on the south for supplies

not just that

Become too dependent on them

but slaves won't innovate, there's no need for them to

@Shakti The initial cause? I don't know what the origins of the universe are, and its a heated topic that everyone has pre-conceptions about

slavery isn't a fuckin meritocracy

I don't believe in a god but i figured you guys did
