So CSR must be only those things that are of no direct benefit to the business - ie. philanthropy. Cue the arguments about how CEOs should not be giving shareholders money away on their personal causes and projects. This is just dumb. Nobody says that marketing is not marketing if it benefits the business‚ or HR is not ’pure’ HR if its priorities align with

I do not find any of the traditional proofs for God’s existence persuasive‚ and I will go over each argument one at a time to explain why I do not find them persuasive‚ starting with Anselm’s ontological argument‚ then Aquinas’ cosmological argument‚ and finally Paley’s teleological argument.
