Which is what, Cog?

Yes, I was wondering the same thing. Did Coggies abandon this thread?

Which is what, Cog? Do I need to link the "Dostoevsky Didn't Say it" page for the twentieth time for an ignorant apologist?

Would you please link to the page for the ignorant critic (I'd like to see what is misattributed to him).

I always end up doing the homework for Coggies!!!!

But here it is:

Here's the quip that Coggies was most likely referring to:

"If God does not exist, everything is permitted."

Thanks for the link Moniker.

I'll post my Foucault paper on this thread probably when I finish it (tonight hopefully *knock on wood*). It doesn't have to do with the OP issue, but it has to do with Foucault and the disciplines (specifically how people recognize the system of disciplines and can proactively work towards excelling in the disciplines).

Cheers all.

I just posted my paper to my blog on this site...so go there and marvel at my intelligence (well be nice.)

I'll marvel at your intelligence AND be nice. I'm a multitasker. :)

I finally got my full copy of Discipline and Punish! (Hey me!) (Also picked up a copy of The Birth of the Clinic).

Something weird about the mirror thread at MAD...not a single response. Either it wasn't an interesting topic or it hit closer to home than some conservative religious folks want to admit.
