if your laws have no moral justification, they are wither good on accident, or evil

the way republics justify law

being non-evil

is by binding good to the will of the people

saying basically that the ppl is to be the arbiter of good and evil

which is dubious

This is exactly like a pointless discussion a few days ago because morals are subjective

(though practical)

if morality is indeed subjective

then all of this is meaningless

and all there is is Foucault

and power dynamics

which incidentally means that the far left is correct

them or the actual, unironic Evolafags

not sure which

but one of the 2

if morality is subjective

Perhaps it just means that morals within a society are a social construct based on a majority feeling within that society

it is either so depending on nature or nurture

if that is true, system, then the SJWs are 100% correct

and there is no reality

at least in any meaningful sense

Most people agree that beating dogs with sticks is wrong, there's one moral and thus law by extrapolation of how unacceptable it is to break the moral

none of this means that there isn't objectively moral standards, just that people have a hard time not falling in line

you're basically conflating what is socially acceptable with what should be

which is different concepts

It depends on the intent of the beating.

I just don't see how morals can come to exist without a function being group acceptance or consensus on what is right or wrong. In fact we know this to be true based on looking at how different moral codes exist in different countries

raed more books

Don't you dare say the bible

unironically this is my answer

You shouldn't start with the Bible tbh

very hard read

confusing

and clearly more about lateral thinking then about rational

Law does impart moral behavior because our system of law was affected by canon law of the Catholic church.

plus the Bible is actually kinda pointless if you dont do reading around it

unless ur some sort of genius

Protestants are dumb basically

That book is much better served with help from smart ppl suggesting interpretations

then on ur own, as a simple read
