Do you believe humans were made in the image and likeness of God? Does God make mistakes?
Dignity isn’t measurable. Someone has it or they don’t. It’s not a switch that can be flipped on and off.

Yes, exactly. I didn't mean to imply that everyone wasn't negatively impacted by feminism destroying the nuclear family, but women bear special mention because this is all the result of a philosophy that is supposed to elevate and fulfill women. Again, going back to the 1st wave, feminists didn't care about the impact on men or children.
So the point here is that, sure, it's negatively impacting men and children, but we don't care about that because feminism was always about disregarding men and children.
But it's not even fulfilling women, the demographic it's supposed to be helping.

I was talking more about people you work with and the guy you talked about in the OP.
We all have roles as parents we try and nurture and teach our children and prepare them for their lives as adults.
No
Can still have dignity? Yes
These are physical traits that have nothing to do with dignity and uncontrollable unless it was self-inflicted with the disabled person.

No
If fetuses and babies don’t posses any innate value, why do we have laws protecting them?

Existing as a fetus or baby is also uncontrollable. No fetus or baby requests their existence.

Dignity and value are two very different things. You said:
quote:
Do you believe a human needs to meet certain subjective criteria to possess value?
And I want to know if you believe if everyone possess innate "value", regardless of criteria. If you believe serial killers, serial rapists, and child molesters possess an inalienable "value" - then I want to understand your definition of "value".

Extract? Dignity is one's self worth and I don't need confirmation from society letting me know my self worth. My worth is taking care of the children I produced and the wife I am married to by going to work and putting a roof over their heads not realying on government programs to take care or my family. My worth is made by myself. I don't need confirmation on that.
quote:

Because people without dignity have them and don't care about their well being.

quote:If you mean human dignity is independent from God, then no, it isn’t, and why would it be? We are created beings. We are dependent upon our creator. Our value and dignity is also dependent upon Him.
Is innate human dignity not transcendent? Do you believe a human needs to meet certain subjective criteria to possess value?
Without God, there is no inherent value or dignity. If we are the result of a cosmic accident, then why are we more special than a dog, a germ, or a rock?
No, we have inherent value precisely because we are created in the image of God. Strip Him from the picture and the only value we have is the value we presume in our own minds, which is of no more value than our affinity for one type of music over another; just a preference. No one needs to respect our choice in music, clothing, colors, or food just because we desire one thing over another, so likewise no would would be obligated to grant us value or dignity simply because we value ourselves. It must be founded in the transcendence of God.

Or do you pity my husband because he married someone who thinks differently than you do?
I pity your husband because he is married to a sociopath who can’t admit she is wrong.
Are you ready to simply admit you were wrong about Trayvon martin and Sandra bland?
Miss throws accusations at everyone while simultaneously doing the exact things she accuses others of doing.
The class is patiently waiting.
“I was wrong. Trayvon martin was shot by a civilian. Sandra bland committed suicide”
So. fricking. Simple.

“Even AI shows proclivities re ‘Self’ preservation. Survival beyond this worldly life is the essence of Religion. Ultimate personal value is determined by characteristics which promote and serve the self and collective impetus for survival. Darwinian “survival of the fit(est)” as it were. The same applies in the supposed ‘Heavenly’ Realm with serious value qualifications for entrance and relative rewards and punishment.
The Good Lord - knowing the heart - will judge. Albeit “to whom much is given, much is required “. I suspect that a lot of Cubbies wards are not given much so less is expected from them. The ‘thief on the cross’ comes to mind. We never know what a life long sinner may do in their last breath. We can condemn actions but not people, lest we be judged by that same metric.
Good work to both sides. “Prove all things “. That is what we do here.

No. I WOULD pity your husband because he chose to marry and stay with a virtue signaling, attention-seeking harpy.
But I don’t, because that IS his choice.

Is it possible to possess one without the other? Dignity is innate, unconditional value.

Yes. Everyone possesses human dignity because we were each made in the image and likeness of God.

Come on babes. It’s okay to admit you are wrong. I’ve been wrong plenty of times and I’m a big boy who can admit that.
Why can’t you put your big girl panties on and simply admit you were wrong?

What she’s too stupid to realize is that the people I interact with day-to-day feel exactly about people like her as I do.
In other words, they’re smart enough to see thru the bullshite.
