Nature is by definition the world, the universe, and everything contained in it. Nothing that exists is unnatural. E.g. food additives aren't unnatural. They are a natural consequence of human intelligence, which is a natural consequence of evolution, etc. Feel free to drop this truth bomb whenever relevant.

I remember when I first figured out this out I told my mum and dad and they said "That's right Funky. That's very smart of you." I hope the day goes as well for you as it did for me.

Subyng posted:By what metric do you delineate "part of nature" and "removed from nature"? human nature is rightly considered separate from nature, despite humans being part of nature. how about this: humans are the only creatures with sentience. this is contrary to the normal course of nature, and certain philosophies consider sentience to be aberrant and thus unnatural life is not black and white, and it certainly isnt all white like you think it is

poopzilla posted:anything that Man created that didnt/wouldnt exist otherwise Why do you arbitrarily categorize humans and their creations as outside of nature? Humans are a result of nature. We evolved to be the way we are just like every other living thing on this planet evolved to be the way it is. You suggest disparity when there is none.

Toadvine posted:human nature is rightly considered separate from nature, despite humans being part of nature. Using the uniqueness of sentience as the line between natural and unnatural is completely arbitrary. Like I said, all organisms on the planet have qualities unique to them. Ducks are the only organisms to have corkscrew penises. Anglerfish are the only species that mate by having the male literally fuse into the female. Guess ducks and angler fish are also unnatural if we are to apply your logic that unique traits are contrary to the course of nature.

Beef Turret posted:Probably because concepts like that only exist as aids to understanding rather than as factual discoveries about the world? Are you for real There are many people that do treat such concepts as factual discoveries of the world. Smart people understand that categorizing the world as "natural" and "unnatural" makes discussion of certain topics convenient, then there are dummies who think that there is actually a fundamental difference.

We can categorize things as being good or bad without having to invoke the "nature" argument. For example, pollution, depletion of natural resources, destruction of environments and the extinction of species are all "bad" (from our perspective anyway, in the cosmic sense it's all the same poo poo), whether or not these activities are "natural" should never be part of the discussion.

The nature argument is useful since humanity adapted to wild nature, not to modernity. It's you who arbitrarily disassembles everything into constituent parts until they seem interchangeable
