Friday, March 9, 2012. PL 431] The Cultural Differences Argument. In "The Challenge of Cultural Relativism," Rachels argues that the Cultural Differences Argument is invalid.

http://thinkjustdoit.blogspot.com/2015/04/phi-3000-what-have-i-done-to-deserve.html

The argument goes roughly like this:. An omniperfect God would damn a person to hell only if there is a sufficient justification for doing so. The punishment must fit the crime.

http://thinkjustdoit.blogspot.com/2015/09/hum-2551-is-newton-man.html
Tuesday, September 15, 2015. HUM 2551] Is Newton the man? According to Perry et al ( 11th ed. The civilizations of the ancient Near East were based on a way of thinking fundamentally different from the modern scientific outlook.
