good point
doesn't elon musk have a solar company that's good
solarcity or something
Tesla is a meme
Space colonization is a meme
also I don't think I'll be able to convince you on anything since my views put economics near the bottom of concerns
Electric cars arent though
SPACE FORCE IS A MAYMAY
i've been on both sides of the neolib debate enough times to be pretty secure in my beliefs
@Deleted User what economic system do you advocate for?
Capitalism forces greedy people to help others, while in other systems they can just use force to take what is not theirs.
@21tagtmeiern I literally do not care about the economy, however I would say it would have to slowly shift out of capitalism and into an Organic Economy
I technically see all modern government as corrupted and needing of destruction more than anything, but that's my immediate want for a system I don't support
how does an organic economy differ from capitalism?
Do you mean like this? https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Organic_Economy_Model
@CryptoBlok that is quiet similar, yes
Glad to be of help!
I still think free-market capitalism can better handle the problems this other model claims to address, though.
it obviously depends on the traditions you're talking about
and the kind of economic growth
the 'economic growth' derived from a social media platform like Facebook seems like something that has contributed next to nothing to the wellbeing or further productivity of society at large
Yeah, it could be Islamic traditions or some such thing
or a tradition of shitting on the street
I believe objective morality transcends traditions - not that all traditions should be thrown out, of course, but they need to serve the Good, not just the Old.
lmao okay
what do you think objective morality is, then
My belief is that morality is based on the purpose God created us for.
Doing His will is good, and disobeying is evil/deleterious
right
wait
god's omniscient, right?
One of the things we're supposed to do is help those in need, and raise them up out of bad situations.
@21tagtmeiern Essentially, yes
then aren't people who sin just doing as expected of them
No, they're choosing to not follow the best plan created by God
but god knew that plan wouldn't come to pass
so why would he make it
I'm sorry, I should've been clearer above. I meant that God can see what is happening in the present, and possible futures. However, the whole future is not determined (to my knowledge), and there are parts in the bible where He essentially says He was surprised or shocked by something unexpected happening.
ah gotcha
what makes doing god's will objectively good?
Well, it's something I'm sill studying, but I think it has do do with natural consequences of actions
