Well, that's sort of a problem right there. If Lessans's proof doesn't hold up to objections, questions, or "tangents", it's not a very useful proof.
All I've seen so far is the claim that humans move move in the direction of greater satisfaction. At this point, I'm poking at this claim to see what it means. |
Very cool Rigorist. I just hope you have a mind of your own because everyone and his brother has a different opinion, and this will ruin the proof of determinism and the Golden Age of man that is inevitable as a consequence. |
If his proof can be
demonstrated as valid and sound then opinions cannot ruin it.
So far you have not demonstrated it as valid and sound, only asserted that it is so.
