GG @Deleted User, you just advanced to level 4!
nelson the construction of china town was like 30 years before it

let's go back to morality
what's the foundation of the secular morals based upon?
Operational Art. Empathy.
empathy is the moral foundation of secularism?
basic ingredients are sentience, ability to understand harm and consequences, and what functional relationships and societies flourish as.
Theory of mind, etc
To begin to build the world, you have to learn to trust strangers. Immorality is antithetical to that.
ability of understand harm and consequences? is the harm of other for your benefit morally good if it benefits you and society?
Be more specific. Surgery can be seen as a temporary harm, but ultimately good for me and society.
Mind you, there's no 100% of good or bad. Every is a balance of pros and cons, which we often screw up or are unable to alter.
In a scenario where you're a german in nazi germany
and you have a hiding jew in your home
and a officers comes knocking at your door to ask you if there's a jew inside
will you tell the truth in that moral grading?
Depends on your moral priorities, how effective a liar you think you are, your estimation of the likelihood of them searching your house, etc
Chances are, if you tell them you are hiding a jew, you are going to get in trouble anyway, so it might not matter if you decide to 'be honest' for your fate
Nope, I wouldn't. I actively plot to bomb the Reichstag on top of that. We playing with Kant now?
but lying would affect the nazi german society
Assuming I'm as I am now
Which far from certain. Germans took to Nazi culture for a reason.
How would my single lie regarding a hidden jew affect german society?
because according to them jewish were detrimental for german society
The nazis had all sorts of opposition until the violence shut everybody up
And I can disagree with that, same with people saying gay marriage is bad for society.
Some specifically disliked the anti-antisemitism but liked everything else
the gay slippery slope did happen tbh
