RE: The Philosophy Of Free Will - Rules for Critical Thinking And For Arguing Intelligently

in #philosophy8 years ago (edited)

Thank you very much and such pleasure meeting new faces. I've been away for a while but fully motivated to "throw out" a few more debates. Target is indeed a very harsh word :) I agree with you but sometimes it feels like we got targets infront of us we do bombard with our thoughts. We wish to "shoot" them in some ways. Oh well , I have learnt to be more calm and enjoyed this topic very much, especially since we all are confronted watching the hateful angry feedback over the election in the USA, many confusing opinions. I had to teach myself to step back, hoping that people need to learn again how to communicate properly, more kindness maybe.

Sort:  

Cicero had a marvelous way to debate "targets"..." I'm so sure of my position I won't even bring up the fact that my learned opponent beats his wife, molests his children, hates kittens and drowns puppies. I don't even need to bring it up."

yeah , I know what you mean .....
Great book by the way : children as targets for adults

on amazon

"Difficult" Children as Elicitors and Targets of Adult Communication Patterns: An Attributional-Behavioral Transactional Analysis

Cicero was a very skilled, wit and outstanding orator and his speeches the perfect persuasion :)
