Earlier quoted context omitted.

i'm sorry that you don't have the patience to read a wikipedia article > Some people use the phrase, naturalistic fallacy or appeal to nature, in a different sense, to characterize inferences of the form "Something is natural; therefore, it is morally acceptable"

Again, it is what it is, there's no moral attachment to my comment. I give up, you just want me to be wrong. It's just frustrating you don't recognize that was the argument I was making.

what exactly do you think the difference is between

> Again, it is what it is, there's no moral attachment to my comment.

and

> "Something is natural; therefore, it is morally acceptable"

These pics are 2000 (Chittagong, Bangladesh) posted around 2009 as you can see from the low rez. The photographer has a doco - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0832903/ As others are posting there are better videos / pics out. Good book, not too long, easy read - "Ship Breaker" by "Paolo Bacigalupi" - https://booko.us/9780316056199/Ship-Breaker I think cyberpunk, Amazon says dystopian romance.

Have read Bacigalupi’s The Water Knife[1], Tool of War[2], and The Tangled Lands[3]. Recommended!
