@ThePangburn you're being summoned

2020-09-15 04:46:14 UTC  

Does someone really think morality is objective?.........

2020-09-15 04:46:35 UTC  

Harriss thinks it needs to be in that old ted talk

2020-09-15 04:47:48 UTC  

No, the application of objecting wellbeing measurements as a route to morality is what is objective. The moral system is still subjective.

2020-09-15 04:48:05 UTC  

objective wellbeing*

2020-09-15 04:48:47 UTC  

Well sure

2020-09-15 04:49:05 UTC  

It isn’t objective from a purely scientific point of view

2020-09-15 04:49:12 UTC  

I believe Matt Dillahunty says the goal "well being" is subjective, but the ways to achieve that goal are objective. Is that right?

2020-09-15 04:50:22 UTC  

I’d agree with that

2020-09-15 04:51:21 UTC  

I am not at all versed in logical arguments, fallacies...being smart. So I'm taking it all in.

2020-09-15 04:51:54 UTC  

So if well-being is being assumed to be the moral goal. If that goal is essentially taken on faith, isn’t the whole thing arbitrary?

2020-09-15 05:04:13 UTC  

Like I’m serious about this: if we’ll being is assumed as a goal, if it’s taken on faith, why is it any less arbitrary than religion

2020-09-15 05:04:56 UTC  

Because religion describes things which are metaphysical, I think that’s the main objection

2020-09-15 05:13:35 UTC  

Well I understand that fine, but that doesn’t address my problem exactly

2020-09-15 05:14:11 UTC  

Yea ik, it’s one of the big gaps in common atheistic reasoning

2020-09-15 05:14:44 UTC  

Not all atheists think that way

2020-09-15 05:15:03 UTC  

I use the word common with purpose of course

2020-09-15 05:15:14 UTC  

AH

2020-09-15 05:16:50 UTC  

I liked his design and the name

2020-09-15 05:16:58 UTC  

Yes it is.

2020-09-15 05:17:48 UTC  

There is an significant diffrence between objective and absoulte @ThePangburn I think you are conflating objective and absolute. 😛

What do you mean when you say "the moral system is still subjective" ?
