Ttfn.

You cannot even judge it in your world view

2018-11-01 03:00:35 UTC  

@Roarey He is best friends with commies who cannot argue so what did you expect?

2018-11-01 03:01:19 UTC  

Didn't miss much it looks like.

The old Hitchens 2 step

2018-11-01 03:02:11 UTC  

The things I listed were not things you observe in reality. They are reflections of reality. Much like how behavior is a reflection of concepts put into action that then create real effects.

2018-11-01 03:02:14 UTC  

I didn't miss much

2018-11-01 03:02:35 UTC  

Apparently

2018-11-01 03:02:41 UTC  

When people have an argument, both sides are supposed to make their case. I've made mine, you haven't made yours. And you won't because you know it is so laughably dumb I could tear it apart easier than I break wind.

2018-11-01 03:02:55 UTC  

You have made no case

2018-11-01 03:03:10 UTC  

you are just staking on a non positive claim

2018-11-01 03:03:11 UTC  

aka

2018-11-01 03:03:13 UTC  

The point of that is that just with the other things you can use concepts to construct what objective morality would be just based on the premises of the words themselves that are then acted out in the world that then can be measured for their effects with various metrics.

2018-11-01 03:03:17 UTC  

the Hitchens 2 step

2018-11-01 03:03:24 UTC  

"Objective morality does not exist, because people do bad shit all the time"

2018-11-01 03:03:28 UTC  

^^^

2018-11-01 03:03:40 UTC  

this is not a positive claim

2018-11-01 03:04:04 UTC  

Im hoping the ""s was to point out that it was someone's statement and how it is on its face just silly.

2018-11-01 03:04:35 UTC  

Much like "Capitalism isn't perfect so lets toss it out the window and try something that has never actually functioned as what it says on the tin."

2018-11-01 03:04:40 UTC  

I will ask a simple question

2018-11-01 03:05:02 UTC  

Does reason exist irrespective of human consciousness?

2018-11-01 03:05:03 UTC  

Tbh i find morality to be both objective and subjective at the same time. It is objective in the logical sense of "cold blooded murder isnt something you should do." But objective in the sense that depending on culture and other factors what the definition of "cold blud" can change.

2018-11-01 03:05:13 UTC  

Straw man. I said it isn't objective because moral frameworks differ everywhere, every place, in every time period. And even in groups of people who share a general moral code there are completely different takes on every situation imaginable. Morality cannot possibly be an objective standard if it varies this much. End of story.

2018-11-01 03:05:27 UTC  

this is again retarded

2018-11-01 03:05:36 UTC  

boomer

2018-11-01 03:05:38 UTC  

Demonstrate how, idiot.

2018-11-01 03:05:41 UTC  

Dont look at how different things are

2018-11-01 03:05:45 UTC  

Don't just assert it's retarded

2018-11-01 03:05:54 UTC  

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki - Like the variations of truth that exist?

2018-11-01 03:05:58 UTC  

It is amazing how similar cultures are throughout time

2018-11-01 03:06:05 UTC  

@Roarey zealots who believe themselves to be above others are mentally incapable of understanding

2018-11-01 03:06:15 UTC  

@Roarey Why are we morally superior or "further civilized/progressed whatever" than our ancestors?

2018-11-01 03:06:16 UTC  

In a sense

2018-11-01 03:06:29 UTC  

the moral codes that grew with in vaccumes

2018-11-01 03:06:33 UTC  

You have objective and subjective truths

2018-11-01 03:06:39 UTC  

@Fitzydog - Because it's my culture and I say so.

2018-11-01 03:07:01 UTC  

The hierarchies that developed

2018-11-01 03:07:03 UTC  

@Fitzydog try supplying something for your own side first, then I'll answer you. If you don't make an effort then I won't.

2018-11-01 03:07:07 UTC  

Gravity is real is an objective truth, while the bible is true would be a subjective.

2018-11-01 03:07:30 UTC
