No, the whole Idea of rape being bad is only because it's bad for the advancement of people.

Then again,

Rape isnt bad for everyone.

I didn't say it was bad for everybody

Why is the advanced of human beings desirable? @DjPhoenix

@pennypal It needs to be "for everyone" or it's not objective.

Noo

That makes no sense

@fuck12moredeadcops Im sure your intelligent enough to answer that question yourself.

@Deleted User It’s been awhile since I had a good discussion about ethics and epistemology, I look forward to a conversation with someone who isn’t smoothbrained.

@DjPhoenix I think arguing that it’s self-evident is conceding that you have no argument.

Are you free tomorrow?

Murdering in self-defense is very different than murdering somebody for kicks

Yeah probably

Okay. I'll ping you when I'm able to come on.

@fuck12moredeadcops I have an argument, but it seems so obvious I wouldn't think I'd need to give it.

@pennypal You can't "murder" in self defence.

Whatever you know what I meant

Murder is the killing of an innocent person, if the person is trying to kill you, they are not innocent.

Stop

We all get it

Ok buddy, I'll let you belive whatever you want even if it's incorrect.

@fuck12moredeadcops To answer your question, the advancement of society is wanted by a majority of people simply because it advanced their life as well, I.E., longer life expectancy, better food, better equipment.

There are many other examples but I'm sure you get it.

Why is the continuation of life and the progression of society more desire able than the alternative?

Dj... But it's not at all obvious what constitutes well being beyond simple ideas

And we know this because we have differences of opinion on abortion and the death penalty etc.

If it was obvious wed all agree

It’s wholly subjective to assert these things as more desirable to their alternatives

@fuck12moredeadcops Is your question "why do people not want to die early, live harder lives, and die from the common cold?"

Of course, there are people who desire to live in the "olden days" that's why it's not objectively desirable.

No, my question is “Why are any of these objectively morally superior to their alternatives?”

But if its objective it has to be by majority rules

It's not objective, I never argued that.

I mean subjective

No, @pennypal murder being bad isn't inheritely bad, but a majority thinks it is.

Subjective= majority rules

No, your getting this mixed up.

Exactly

That doesn't mean killing someone is objectively wrong.
