You don't think pro pedophile laws are moral because you have been programmed by a Christian mindset, we don't create our own morals, we inherit them. If you lived in Ancient Greece pedophilia wouldn't be a moral problem.

2019-10-15 02:55:14 UTC  

I would rather die a martyr than submit to China

2019-10-15 02:56:04 UTC  

If you had no inherited aversion to pedophilia, pornography, rape, etc it wouldn't be a problem.

2019-10-15 02:56:54 UTC  

And I know you all don't care about the morality behind CP and you are only saving face because many females in normal pornography don't consent to it yet you all will watch it.

2019-10-15 02:57:29 UTC  

In conclusion, atheism is pro pedophilia, and execute porn producers

2019-10-15 03:05:23 UTC  

Yeah, tbh I don't the golden rule is that good because if I was a criminal I would like not to be punished for a crime so therefore according to the golden rule people shouldn't be punished. It's hard to come up with one good moral system as an atheist.
But I don't believe that there is no "atheistic" argument against pedophilia lol

2019-10-15 03:05:31 UTC  

You don't need God to believe it is wrong

2019-10-15 03:06:54 UTC  

It's not that it's hard to come up with an overarching moral system, that would imply there are intrinsic goals to begin with. It is *impossible* to bridge the is-ought gap in the existentialist framework.

2019-10-15 03:08:04 UTC  

The closest thing would be absurdism, which states we should pretend to have morals for those dopamine releases, but that's how pedophiles get off

2019-10-15 04:28:43 UTC  

There is no atheistic argument against pedophilia because from a pure evolutionary perspective there is nothing wrong with it.

2019-10-15 04:28:53 UTC  

You absolutely need to be religious to have intrinsic morals.

2019-10-15 18:40:00 UTC  

Uh

2019-10-15 18:41:11 UTC  

To believe in objective moral truth does not require belief in god, even among educated folk

2019-10-15 18:41:32 UTC  

See platonism, kantian ethics, utilitarianism

2019-10-15 18:43:07 UTC  

Meanwhile, as an atheist & moral sentimentalist, I believe pedophilia is subjectively / subjectsively wrong and should be forbidden.

2019-10-15 18:46:12 UTC  

I'm unclear on what you mean by intrinsic morals

2019-10-15 18:53:05 UTC  

@primarina my original statement was "under an existentialist/materialist framework that the person I was addressing holds to, so those don't apply.

2019-10-15 18:54:07 UTC  

Ah, ok

2019-10-15 18:54:22 UTC  

Not really clear on existentialist or materialist philosophies, gonna go read up

2019-10-15 18:54:38 UTC  

And calling yourself a moral sentimentalist admits the problem I proposed

2019-10-15 18:55:33 UTC  

Yeah, I wasn't sure whether it would bc I was unclear on your point; can you clarify what you mean by intrinsic morals?

2019-10-15 18:56:44 UTC  

Intrinsic morals is the assertion that morals are a real feature of the world, and exist whether or not we percieve/believe them.

2019-10-15 18:57:53 UTC  

I don't read it that way

2019-10-15 18:58:01 UTC  

Intrinsic is a "to what" kind of word

2019-10-15 18:58:18 UTC  

Objective morality is a better way to say it imo

2019-10-15 18:58:47 UTC  

Morality can be intrinsic without being objective

2019-10-15 18:59:09 UTC  

*intrinsic to the subject*

2019-10-15 18:59:27 UTC  

Well intrinsic is used to mean it's a feature of something objective of our perception

2019-10-15 18:59:42 UTC  

You can't have intrinsic morals without objectivity

2019-10-15 18:59:57 UTC  

I disagree

2019-10-15 19:00:26 UTC  

I mean, morality can be intrinsic to the self; to some you cease to be you when your morality changes in certain ways

2019-10-15 19:00:57 UTC  

Or intrinsic to the holder of a character trait

2019-10-15 19:01:00 UTC  

Well that isn't what is referred to when we say intrinsic morality

2019-10-15 19:01:11 UTC  

I understand that the phrase has a distinct definition

2019-10-15 19:01:35 UTC  

But my point is it isn't equal to intrinsic + morality

2019-10-15 19:01:53 UTC  

I never said it was at all

2019-10-15 19:02:10 UTC  

So, my version fo the phrase is also valid

2019-10-15 19:02:52 UTC  

And I do think considering intrinsic subjective ethics is worthwhile

2019-10-15 19:02:52 UTC  

If I define fish to mean pants I can say I'm wearing fish but that isn't very conducive to a conversation

2019-10-15 19:03:05 UTC  

But that's very different from what I'm doing

2019-10-15 19:03:18 UTC  

I'm taking the meaning of the two words, to make a more literal version of the phrase
