Like I said, I disagree with that statement, too
you may reject the way your forefathers acted, or disagree, or say that they're morally disconnected from you, but you cannot say, that their actions are disconnected from you.
What other connection other than moral, is there
We have similar genes, that;s about it
that is more than enough.
I'm confused
Based austria
I said I disagree with the statement that our achievements are disconnected from them
Austria is good for skiing
Genes mean nothing tho
what does that even mean
@Cesare Anasazi really?
Uhhh
Tell that to a cystic fibrosis patient 🤣
if genes meant nothing, why do they decide basically everything?
Me and my brother have similar genes. I'm a rich engineer, he's a former drug addict now working as carpender
its not a binary
alright guys I gotta be off.
I didnt mean that genes mean nothing in every context, they dont mean anything in *moral* context
yeah and that is why it is important to differentiate.
Wait a second
My point is that no matter the blood-relations involved, people are solely responsible for their own actions
Legally, morally, yes, but not otherwise
explain the "otherwise" in here
It has been well studied that drinkers produce drinking offspring
That's irrelevant to the current conversation
Our actions are very strongly affected by the actions of the people around us
lots of things are hereditary
I didnt deny hereditary natre of genes, I denied that I owe anything to someone or should be proud of him simply cause we have similar genes
Ok that sounds different
@Cesare Anasazi then you missed my entire point and all the statements I made on the topic.
misread them I mean
Are you proud of your family?
I did not say anything about moral connections here.
There is nothing to be proud about my family
lol
Thankfully I am not connected to their actions anyway

Objectivist is a descendant of Stalin I bet
