@Leaf Supremacist they'll never notice

2018-09-06 04:44:43 UTC  

it creates a UNIVERSAL AXIOM of morality

2018-09-06 04:45:12 UTC  

Kant doesn't claim this as objective

2018-09-06 04:45:22 UTC  

knowledge of morality is not a priori

2018-09-06 04:45:35 UTC  

WHICH would lead us down a whole 'nother rabbithole

2018-09-06 04:45:42 UTC  

but try to grasp these basics first.

2018-09-06 04:45:47 UTC  

Alright but why is the dichotomy between objective and subjective morality incorrect?

2018-09-06 04:45:55 UTC  

because morality is metaphysics

2018-09-06 04:46:10 UTC  

no serious philosopher makes claims for objective morality

2018-09-06 04:46:33 UTC  

he might appeal to G-d as the foundation for his deontological system

2018-09-06 04:46:54 UTC  

but the system is still metaphysics built on scripture (which has been done many times during the Scholastic period)

2018-09-06 04:46:56 UTC  

Yeah but that doesn't explain why there isn't a dichotomy between the subjective and objective bases of morality.

2018-09-06 04:47:04 UTC  

There absolutely is.

2018-09-06 04:47:10 UTC  

there is no such dichotomy

2018-09-06 04:47:14 UTC  

That's why everyone but you was able to grasp the question.

2018-09-06 04:47:15 UTC  

:(

2018-09-06 04:47:27 UTC  

that's because the internet spreads bad information

2018-09-06 04:47:43 UTC  

I like you better when you're being a turboautist.

2018-09-06 04:47:44 UTC  

the greatest philosophers of Christian ethics

2018-09-06 04:47:51 UTC  

never claimed "objective morality"

2018-09-06 04:48:04 UTC  

Perhaps hours of turboautism drained your fuel cells.

2018-09-06 04:48:09 UTC  

they raelised the issue of morality is far more complex than that petty distinction

2018-09-06 04:48:23 UTC  

maybe you should actually read the Thomists

2018-09-06 04:48:31 UTC  

before you go spouting off this utter tripe

2018-09-06 04:48:51 UTC  

objective morality is unknowable and unprovable, but it exists

2018-09-06 04:48:53 UTC  

and utilitarianism has more in common with Kantian deontology than relativism

2018-09-06 04:49:14 UTC  

because utilitarians make a universalist argument much like Kant did

2018-09-06 04:49:25 UTC  

the important distinction is deontological/consequential

2018-09-06 04:49:30 UTC  

relativism is another camp entirely

2018-09-06 04:49:39 UTC  

that claims ethics are culturally bound

2018-09-06 04:49:51 UTC  

I'm afraid no one cares for your pedantism.

2018-09-06 04:50:10 UTC  

this is not pedantic

2018-09-06 04:50:13 UTC  

well, hes finally making positive claims so i am at least marginally more interested

2018-09-06 04:50:17 UTC

2018-09-06 04:50:28 UTC  

if you want to engage in a serious philosophical discussion with anyone who knows their way around these concepts

2018-09-06 04:50:32 UTC  

you have to understand them and how to apply them.

2018-09-06 04:50:56 UTC  

Noooooooo

2018-09-06 04:50:59 UTC  

@Jay1532 That's a Kantian argument

2018-09-06 04:51:09 UTC  

the noumenal exists but it is not accessible to us

2018-09-06 04:51:19 UTC  

@Deleted User get the nignog back

2018-09-06 04:51:35 UTC  

?
