I do not know what nature is all about, nor do I even claim to know all there is to know about human purpose, I claimed to be able to know something about it........

But you said this:

make inferences about the best course of action to fulfill the purpose inherent in nature.

And you repeatedly talked about nature and purpose...

I have no idea why you are talking about piglets. I specifically said that we reason from our observation of human nature situated in the world, primarily noting that man is rational and social. I do not know what nature is all about, nor do I even claim to know all there is to know about human purpose

EXCUSE ME, NEOCON? You weren't talking about the purpose inherent in nature?? You were talking about human nature?? when you talked about making inferences about the best course of action to fulfill the PURPOSE INHERENT IN NATURE??

ONCE AGAIN, YOU JUST SAID: "I do not know what nature is all about, nor do I even claim to know all there is to know about human purpose". But a minute ago you said that you could "make inferences about the best course of action to fulfill the purpose inherent in nature".

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE INHERENT IN NATURE?????

WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE THAT SOMEBODY WOVE A MORAL LAW THROUGH EVERYTHING...(and what would that moral law be if we were to discover it in nature, and all agree it was divine??)
