Real goods being described as those things you meed to live
you can justify and rationalise it, because fuck it a man can be convinced that you did good by killing that man
But if Moralism and Ethics are defined by man what makes murder bad? The animal kingdom kills their own children and they don't care.
Whether or not it was needed in order to preserve a real good
If they arent imeadiately threatening your real goods such an action is completely innappropriate and not supported at all
So you advocate for killing your own child of it threatens the "real good?"
What man thinks is "Good" is irrelevant to God. God is more concerned with Righteousness.
in ethics defined by man, murder can be justified
in front of a God it can't
If your child is threatening your health or shelter and the only way to stop them is via death it might be justified
But in that case it isnt murder its self defense and manslaughter
this is what I'm talking about
You kind of justified our point
>perfectly fine with child killing as long as they endager you in some way
Yes and no
Unless you are referring to capital punishment
Where the child has done grave wrong by the law
Killing because you want to is different than killing because you are forced to or die
you're still not allowed to judge him, only God is
I mean u can put him in jail but not execute him
agreed
Though we are told "by their fruits you shall know them" so we can usually figure out if someone is saved or not by just watching them act.
I think he was referring to abortion
The justification would only come from reflection of the situation you were in however.
Abortion is abhorrent in the eyes of God. The Bible states the God HATES hands quick to shed innocent blood.
You cant really justify stuff in the moment
According to ethics you could abort
Provided the complications threatened the mothers life
But all that is going into Utilitarianism
Human concept of ethics is irrelevant to God. You should only be following his law when it comes to moral code.
If he has a law he should enforce it
Otherwise ethics is the best we can do
Enforce his Moral Law? He already said that it is man's choice
I would doubt the moral code of any mother who decides to end the life of her child to save her own
^^^
The case we used in class was that the baby had a complication where it would not survive birth and it put the mother in serious danger
now do you see how far we have fallen? when abortion is made for economic reasons? how far the ethics of man can justify things
But abortion because youre a whore is generally not supported
the example you provided still doesn't justify murdering the child
if it has a chance then it does
