"OMG YOU CAN'T HAVE THOOOSE IN A PUBLIC PLACE REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

2019-07-21 23:39:21 UTC  

contracts that are not enforceable are literally BANNED by definition. They have no legal power to them

2019-07-21 23:39:27 UTC  

they are not conrtacts

"OMG this dollar bill has the word GOD ON IT HALP I am being Opressed by this dollar bill"

2019-07-21 23:39:41 UTC  

thus - morals are subjective.

2019-07-21 23:39:48 UTC  

because the sovereign power will not allow for the punishment of their breakers

2019-07-21 23:40:13 UTC  

hell, even laws are subjective at this point although those are the one area which fucking shouldnt be

2019-07-21 23:40:42 UTC  

The existence of differing moral codes does not disprove objective morality

2019-07-21 23:41:16 UTC  

do you read back what you type before hitting return? the fact that there could even be differing moral codes means theyre subjective

2019-07-21 23:42:08 UTC  

Are you retarded?

2019-07-21 23:42:22 UTC  

do you know what subjective means?

2019-07-21 23:43:28 UTC  

Objective morality means that there is one definitively correct set of morals regardless of whether everyone believes it or not

2019-07-21 23:43:44 UTC  

Yes, and everyone has some of that.

2019-07-21 23:44:01 UTC  

"Its immoral for the man tm to tell me what to do."

2019-07-21 23:44:13 UTC  

Some actions seem to speak against the universe, yet all are permissible in reality, we can separate ourselves from the wolves

2019-07-21 23:44:28 UTC  

and where do your fictional definitively correct set of morals come from?

2019-07-21 23:45:16 UTC  

Most believers of obejective morality believe they come from god

2019-07-21 23:45:30 UTC  

oh good lord

2019-07-21 23:45:45 UTC  

or it can just be what works in this reality

2019-07-21 23:45:54 UTC  

but hose are functionally equivalent tbh

2019-07-21 23:46:19 UTC  

Our actions set the boundaries of what we accept our children to endure, we invite the future

2019-07-21 23:46:32 UTC  

which god in particular?

2019-07-21 23:46:59 UTC  

Is there something you arent getting through your thick skull? I am not arguing for the position just explaining the difference between a puritan and libertine perspective

2019-07-21 23:47:11 UTC  

You are clearly missing my point

2019-07-21 23:48:17 UTC  

No, your point makes no sense.

2019-07-21 23:48:19 UTC  

if you want to say "this is how some people think" that's fine, but to try to actually suggest theres a set of objective morals is ridiculous, because you're proving them to be subjective in the exact same sentence

2019-07-21 23:48:55 UTC  

By your definition of puritan everyone is a puritan because everybody has things they believe are objectively moral.

2019-07-21 23:49:05 UTC  

I can't find an objective reason not to kill, steal and murder, only with a view to the future does it make sense

2019-07-21 23:49:11 UTC  

you could argue that morality is in fact, a social construct 😉

2019-07-21 23:49:41 UTC  

R-Tao - because those things make it hard to work together with others.

2019-07-21 23:50:01 UTC  

and usually Working Together with someone is a higher net benefit than not working together with others.

2019-07-21 23:50:35 UTC  

Surely. We now have a challenge being in a larger country, where it's hard to escape alongside those you wish to share reality with, we expect the government to step in to shape the conditions

2019-07-21 23:50:55 UTC  

nah not even in a larger country just on an individual level.

2019-07-21 23:51:11 UTC  

Say you have a chicken and bob has a cow

2019-07-21 23:51:37 UTC  

you can either kill bob and take his cow

2019-07-21 23:51:55 UTC  

or you can trade some of your extra eggs with bob and have some of his extra milk.

2019-07-21 23:52:00 UTC  

@system11 you seem to still not know what obective morality even means

2019-07-21 23:52:16 UTC  

option 1 means in the long term..you now have to take care of both a cow and a chicken.

2019-07-21 23:52:22 UTC  

more work.

2019-07-21 23:53:25 UTC  

I might be wrong, but we only have these concerns because long established rule of law and morality have been let slip. And we refuse to kick offenders into the next realm.

2019-07-21 23:53:46 UTC  

@system11 most humans living today belive in objective morals (or at least purport to based on religion polling)
