God told Adam not to eat, Adam told Eve not to eat, Eve had the information that she shouldn't eat, but she was able to generate the desire to violate a rule she believed to be correct (not good).

Underemployed for 4 yrs now recalling that there was unclaimed farm land in Western Nebraska... thinking about it.

So if an adult lies about a school teacher and tells people the teacher is a pedophile, that conforms within the limits of NAP?

Every sweat shop offers the lowest wages they can get away with, but they always offer more than the alternate opportunities in a Free Market situation. Average Americans living on less than $1 a day in the 1800s, fled the poorest farms for jobs that were less dangerous, less hard and better paying in the cities (some got paid $1.25/day, but it was consistent work and usually easier than farm work). every time you stop a company from offering jobs at $1.25/day, you must understand you are dooming those people to remain stuck at $1/day and their jobs are often much harder and much more dangerous than the sweat shop opportunity.

Tyler is right, Post Offices have all sorts of government entanglements besides for quiet subsidies during profitable years. post offices' land was purchased by Feds, they use the land rent free from local jurisdictions. And the Post office gets bailed out by Feds every time they screw up and wind up with a budget shortfall.

Firstly, I think abortion is always morally wrong. But, I don't think it is always legally wrong. A woman who is raped, by US law should be allowed to terminate even if we could agree that the baby is an individual. Many argue the baby doesn't satisfy the quality of an individual at conception, and many argue there is no objective demarcation from conception to birth...

Weird. Wonder if we will ever get the story.

There is a simple compromise the locals will accept. establish a dependent state which still funds a "Federal" government. Allow more independence on internal workings of the state. Stop trying to rob the Catalans blind to fund "Welfare" transfer payments to poor people in other areas of the country. Goes without saying, the central government would never allow it.

An old question, they used to argue against things like eating too much instead of psychopathic arson, but the ideas are the same. Note: Eudaimonia would encourage someone to work hard all day to build a fence and enjoy that fulfillment, over sitting in the shade everyday feeling deliriously happy for no reason. Eudaimonia (Greek: εὐδαιμονία [eu̯dai̯mo'níaː]), sometimes anglicized as eudaemonia or eudemonia/juːdɪˈmoʊniə/, is a Greek word commonly translated as happiness or welfare; however, "human flourishing" has been proposed as a more accurate translation.[1] Etymologically, it consists of the words "eu" ("good") and "daimōn" ("spirit"). It is a central concept in Aristotelian ethics and political philosophy, along with the terms "aretē", most often translated as "virtue" or "excellence", and "phronesis", often translated as "practical or ethical wisdom".[2] In Aristotle's works, eudaimonia was (based on older Greek tradition) used as the term for the highest human good, and so it is the aim of practical philosophy, including ethics and political philosophy, to consider (and also experience) what it really is, and how it can be achieved.

I mention lying in parenting i think it's wrong, some argue it is okay with strangers.

Anarchy, State, and Utopia by Robert Nozick i have never read a better book on this subject. he concludes minimal taxation for police i infer land rents for the purpose of "Welfare" transfer payments would similarly be possible, but that the results may backfire as a wealthy person can live in a tall building, but in today's technology, food production is very land heavy, so it would result in a regressive tax on the poor.

As I said on another topic: The difference couldn't be more stark. we both believe in cause and effect atheists just believe the cause is accidental and lucky for us and theists believe it was intentional and not dumb luck

Just an internal reference to the Bible, but Egypt was a son of Ham (a son of Noah) Genesis 10:6

Why? Can't they just defend themselves?

Perhaps a minimum of leg hair signals low testosterone and therefore, healthy genetics paired with no prior history of birthing male babies to competing males... which may signal more availability.

Intellectual property, copyrights, patents is a myth. it started after the printing press. jewish law debates admitted there can be no such property but attempted to protect "first printings" with social pressure to protect the investments of the authors (who were basically self publishing, thus after authoring, raising significant capital) to cover the cost to print (a few hundred?) books. the advent of US government and Ben Franklin's patent rights just expanded these non-existent rights to protect inventors and in theory spur invention.

I don't know that we will ever successfully reach the anarchic utopia, but it is so easy to get there if we stop trying to waste all our energy using others against their will for our own purpose.

Lots of good knowledge here Actually the only reason we use the fertilizers we use is because they are cheaper than other forms. powdered rock is a super fertilizer. there are also many more complex chemical processes that would cost more. current world population can fit in suburban housing inside state of Texas. water recycling could provide for all water needs. Skyscrapper farms can provide large percentage of food requirements (already designed, also contain underground fish farms which contribute fertilizer) Nuclear can provide all electrical power generation for many years frakking has provided us many new large wells, and will probably soon provide us many more fusion will eventually get here (I think) and can provide all our power on planet until we are ready to move into space. and then moving farming into illuminated multistory underground bunkers... to free up even more space... electrical power can support production of biofuels if we need to use those in the future

What caused the Big Bang? sorry if I use Twitter sarcasm sometimes, unintended.

Gen 3? What about that? according to the Bible story, Cain & Abel predate Egypt. Prometheus and Hercules predate Jesus.

I don't. God has always been the Creator, to many others too.

So what you are saying is that speaking diplomatically is okay... but you understand that lying to a friend, besides the negative repercussions to yourself, is also pretty bad? Even if they are an adult.

There is a guy with a YouTube channel who claims to make $70,000/yr on a 1/3 acre. I think he is in Southern California tho, where the most productive farmland in the world is. I have been thinking about moving to western Nebraska where I have heard there is free land for agriculture.
