Philosophy 201 Guidelines
Cogito ergo sum
Here in the Philosophy forum we will talk about all the "why" questions. We'll have conversations about the way in which philosophy and theology and religion interact with each other. Metaphysics, ontology, origins, truth? They're all fair game so jump right in and have some fun! But remember...play nice!

Originally posted by Chrawnus View PostThey're free in the sense there are no outside factors that determine how the moral laws of God looks like. But they're still set in stone because the laws of God derive from His nature, and there is no possible existence where God's nature is different from His nature in the actual world.

OK, so our present western values are no more valid or correct than values in the days when women were treated like chattel. Got it...
That has nothing to do with the Civil Rights acts nor did they reference it.
Again the specific part of the act that we are discussing only applies to interstate commerce, again: if I ran a fruit stand and grew my own fruit I could legally turn anyone away I wanted, since the Civil Rights Act is predicated on interstate commerce.“He felt that his whole life was a kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.” - Douglas Adams.
