What do you know about humanity?

...that does not reply to my objection at all...this meaning that divisions obviously have X depth and scope and cannot be absolute divisions at all...turning the transcendental into the into the transcendent is not an option for me either.
Whatever can be divided has a limited extension, and yet that in turn does n´t mean that there are n´t useful and quite functional processes of individualization which may apply to specific contexts...in fact the reason why I don´t confuse myself with the background is precisely indicative of this ability humans have to distinguish real operational functions in different levels and layers of context.

We cannot divide one, any organic whole... We can divide two in half, and three by thirds... In fact, all numbers are in a certain ratio to each other and multiples of one... Humanity, if it is one as the single name suggests, and a concept, then it cannot really be divided, but only qualified...

To me Fido is correct. I’d look at it this way:

If I have two dogs and I divide them in two I still have two living dogs but if I divide one dog in two then I have a dead dog. Similarly, if I have two distinct concepts I can separate them without damaging the meaning of either but if I have one concept e.g. 'humanity' then if I try to divide that concept into more than one concept the meaning is also destroyed as it only has a single meaning.

Human is a species of monkey!

....lets see if we can clarify this further and out of confusion :

...there´s very obviously no possible union without previous separation nor separation without an implied union...certainly it can be seen that any of those terms alone is meaningless...

...I am not trying to divide humanity for the purpose or anything else but merely explaining the scope and depth of those words...

...you people get distracted all to often.

...for instance in light of the evolution process it certainly is true that any species members can be divided in between those who will survive longer and those who will get extinct immediately...

...vice and virtue, whatever is meant with it, is a sum of choices done in the entirety of one life that eventually reaches for a quotient, a critical mass of consequences...

One thing unique to humanity, we're the only species that can turn sex into pornography.

that we are better than our faults

of course we are! or else we would call them accomplishments!

sorry. it's fixed now.
