Why don't you perform a little experiment. Become a gay male prostitute willingly for a short period, to simulate being forced commit sex acts when you are a child. You must not turn down any sex act customers desire since a child would not have that luxury.

>it shows how my opinion about pedophiles being sociopaths is correct

Try to think out of the box, mate. Sexuality is one of the basic needs of a human being. To relief oneself sexually is about as important as having a house to live, a bed to sleep in, or having enough food to not be hungry. (I guess survival by itself is still more important)

Well, for example, you guys all know these stories, one dude is in love with a girl, there's a rival, and they fight to death and all that. Is the guy who's in love a sociopath because killed/or damaged another man in order for his love life to be fulfilled? A lot of people fight and try to give themselves an advantage when it comes to love and often hurt and damage other people for their own convenience.

A pedophile isn't really a sociopath if he can't see why his sexuality (see above, one of the most important things in a human life) is wrong. The pedophile will most likely unconsiously search for excuses, claim society is wrong and all that, he has a pretty sad existence and most of them break at age 40-50 and end up in jail. They can't really help their 'sociopathic behaviour", in one way or another. Only really intelligent pedos with some huge self control can be stronger than their instincts, this definitely isn't sociopathy, this is just being human.

I recall reading somewhere on the internet once that evidence exists that suggests that men whose male ancestors where philanderers and rapists are more likely to be attracted to females in the age range of greatest fertility, 20-24 years old or so, while men whose male ancestors formed long term monogamous relationships were more likely to be attracted to fertile females with the greatest number of fertile years remaining, around 12-16 years old.

OP, You can't be serious. You simply can't be.

CP is terrible and traumatic for the child because pre-adolescent children have no sex drives. Being put in a position where they're forced to have sexual intercourse by someone they usually love and trust is so morally reprehensible it's sickening. The mental scarring and trauma stems from a betrayal on the part of their parent/guardian not just for letting harm come to them, but being the cause of it.

to all axiomfags:

nope.

when a science is axiomatic, such as physics, the axioms are not based on either nothing or 'intuition'; they are based on empiricism. 'intuition' is simply the generalisations we make from the empirical observations we've made through our lives. for instance, we used to believe space is euclidean. this is because in every single instance we'd observed it to appear so, and no instance had ever contradicted that. so the axiom was actually empirically justified, like all science. when later we discovered euclidean geometry is just a local approximation, due to new and contradictory evidence (michelson morely), once again our new axiom (c is constant) were empirically justified, though not through 'intuition' this time.

>> No.3368639

>>3368629

i don't find this question interesting. actually, the way humans acquire knowledge is hard wired into our brains. before we were worried about epistemological considerations, we would see that every time we let go of an unsupported object it would fall down, and we'd generalise from that a general principle and that would be knowledge. the mechanism is subconscious. therefore it is not logically contradictory to use empiricism, which like i say is part of our nature, to discover that we use empiricism.

but i really don't care about this reflexive crap. the only question for practically assessing the situation is: can you think of any axioms of science not based on empiricism?

it's pre simple bro:
you can't argue that science is empirical based on our understanding of its empiricism being non-empirical because this means logically contradicting yourself.
science either is or isn't empirical.
the justifications of the logic used to evaluate the above may or may not be empirical but it definitely isn't relevant.
the question at hand is, 'is science empirical'?

Science is empirical. Empiricism is not empirical.

In order to prove empiricism is empirical, you would be using empiricism to prove empiricism.

Circular logic is circular
Fucking mental masturbation.

grats bro. now to the issue of justifying epistemological systems: have you even thought about what you are doing?

i mean, okay, let's say the justification of empiricism is non empirical.

what is the basis for this claim? is it non-empirical? then you're using a priori means to justify a priori statements and lookies, we have exactly the same problem.

either we submit to the infinite recess and say that knowledge is impossible, or we stop somewhere.

It was a rhetorical statment.

My point is that you can't prove empiricism, empirically or otherwise. We need to either adopt the unprovable axioms or not do science.

My point in response to this
>can you think of any axioms of science not based on empiricism?
>personally i think it's obvious that there are none

still stands. The axioms of science are not based on empiricism. Because the axioms of science are the axioms of empiricism. And the axioms of empiricism are not based on empiricism.

the idea is that, objectively, the way our brains work is based upon empiricism.
therefore, when we assess nature and come to the above conclusion, we were using empiricism (because we were using our brains).
there is no problem with infinite recess because we're not talking of justifications, we're just talking about the way the world is, physically.

>the idea is that, objectively, the way our brains work is based upon empiricism.

That's only true to a degree. Our brains have loads of ways of telling us what we should think, not the way the world actually is. We have over active positive pattern recognition for example. We see patterns when none exist sometimes. This is how "luck charms" come about

>> No.3368893

>>3368884
strange you picked up on that, because i think empiricism IS pattern recognition.
we then make the dubious claim that the pattern is in some sense indefinitely extendible (induction, white swans etc.)
