i mean imo unless there’s indisputable evidence to back something up then it’s subjective

2018-09-06 22:01:29 UTC  

so from my point of view god’s existance would be subjective

2018-09-06 22:01:36 UTC  

@ham addition that's not how objectivity works

2018-09-06 22:02:37 UTC  

Though

2018-09-06 22:02:51 UTC  

You could say that all systems is morality are objective.

2018-09-06 22:03:10 UTC  

Subjectivity means there is no right answer. Objectivity means there is a right answer, whether we know what the right answer is or not

2018-09-06 22:03:22 UTC  

No.

2018-09-06 22:04:12 UTC  

It means that a person's judgment based on facts can not be swayed by opinion, or feeling.

2018-09-06 22:04:51 UTC  

So if there were facts to support both arguments, both could be objective. By the definition of the word.

2018-09-06 22:06:21 UTC  

Then it is a matter of who is more right.

2018-09-06 22:08:00 UTC  

i mean you can’t really solidly prove that god exists with facts, all we can go off is opinions

2018-09-06 22:08:29 UTC  

I wouldn't call Faith an opinion.

2018-09-06 22:09:08 UTC  

subjective

2018-09-06 22:09:20 UTC  

@Summī Imperator, 呪い殿 faith is an opinion

2018-09-06 22:09:24 UTC  

Definition of objective

1a : relating to or existing as an object of thought without consideration of independent existence —used chiefly in medieval philosophy

b : of, relating to, or being an object, phenomenon, or condition in the realm of sensible experience independent of individual thought and perceptible by all observers :having reality independent of the mind objective reality

2018-09-06 22:09:27 UTC  

if its not opinion, its fact

2018-09-06 22:09:54 UTC  

and we all know faith isnt fact

2018-09-06 22:10:15 UTC  

no matter how hard you believe in it, we dont use god in science or mathematics

2018-09-06 22:10:48 UTC  

yes

2018-09-06 22:11:32 UTC  

A search for what God is, is what sent us down the path of discovery.

2018-09-06 22:11:54 UTC  

^

2018-09-06 22:11:57 UTC  

k what’s the connection

2018-09-06 22:12:03 UTC  

A hunger for knowledge of why it is that God did what he did.

2018-09-06 22:12:16 UTC  

Which lead to philosophy, which lead to modern science.

2018-09-06 22:15:07 UTC  

Now we argue over what is right, or wrong, and gauge how right something is compared to another.

2018-09-06 22:15:16 UTC  

Morality is objective, meaning it has a truth element outside of the mind. Moral systems are constructs built off of that objective truth

2018-09-06 22:16:29 UTC  

I don't think there is anything in modern morality that is "outside the mind".

2018-09-06 22:17:40 UTC  

Perhaps if I saw somebody struck by lightning out of a blue sky for doing something immoral, then there would be proof of an objective morality.

2018-09-06 22:18:27 UTC  

Sure there are, things like degeneracy and the negative effect it has on those people and their society.

2018-09-06 22:18:59 UTC  

Why must the consequences be immediate and obvious?

2018-09-06 22:19:00 UTC  

An agreed upon set of ethics and decisions on what is more right won't sway me. I think there is justification for morality, but no true morality that presides above the rest.

2018-09-06 22:21:14 UTC  

‘degeneracy’ is one of the most subjective things out there

2018-09-06 22:22:19 UTC  

It's like, what is the difference between righteous anger, and indignation to you?

2018-09-06 22:24:26 UTC  

Not really. If you believe in degeneracy, it becomes pretty obvious what are degenerate acts, naturally there will be edge cases as there are in everything.

2018-09-06 22:24:28 UTC  

When does killing become murder?

2018-09-06 22:24:47 UTC  

When does indulgence become degenerate?

2018-09-06 22:25:03 UTC  

Murder is easily defined. Premeditated and unjustified killing

2018-09-06 22:26:03 UTC  

Who decides what is Just when it comes to killing?

2018-09-06 22:27:25 UTC  

Ideally it shouldn't be a "who". There should be some standard which determines what is justification

2018-09-06 22:27:42 UTC  

But that's not how the Courts work.

2018-09-06 22:28:12 UTC  

Because humans aren't capable of attaining perfect objectivity
