You just make assertions.I'm sure you do want to decide your own faith & lifestyle & speech etc? Or shld others do it for you?
-
-
but it's not all about what I want, not all about individual desire.
-
Course not.Our decisions are based on own needs, families, communities,principles, beliefs etc. Do u want right to make them?
-
but you want to pull apart communities with all your commitment to individual choice.
-
No because my commitment to it doesn't make anyone else have to be! They can decide communal values are best.
-
Whereas enforced communal values do not allow for people to choose individual values.
-
You seem to think I prize individual choice in the way you do. I just don’t. For me, morally, we precedes I.
-
i don't believe anybody would accuse such a strict authoritarian as you of valuing liberty or choice.
@HPluckrose not stupid. -
Its not the argument I'm making, no. But
@giles_fraser is deluding himself if he doesn't recognise he chose his community. - 9 more replies

many important things exist pre choice.
-
Yes. Do you want the right to evaluate them & decide what you should do or should other people decide for you?
-
I would not be the person I am if others had not decided things for me. And i thank them for it.
-
But only the ones you agree with!Do you really not see that?! You're complaining abt some compulsory things &advocating others
