morals come from the society

2020-03-10 00:23:17 UTC  

actually you know what

2020-03-10 00:23:23 UTC  

my religion says pedophilia is bade

2020-03-10 00:23:24 UTC  

@moira Just do me a favor. Make a moral proposition, and keep on asking the why. Just do that

2020-03-10 00:23:30 UTC  

it's my religion so I can do what I want with it

2020-03-10 00:23:40 UTC  

You'll eventually come to the point where foundationally as an atheist, you wont have a justification

2020-03-10 00:24:03 UTC  

Literally the overwhelming majority of atheists agree with this because its not a controversial claim

2020-03-10 00:24:11 UTC  

They just say "Ok but people sitll wont do it"

2020-03-10 00:24:25 UTC  

So people canโ€™t be moral without God?

2020-03-10 00:24:33 UTC  

and i have a god dude

2020-03-10 00:24:51 UTC  

again people can be moral without God

2020-03-10 00:25:08 UTC  

Morality depends on what the society believes

2020-03-10 00:25:15 UTC  

And we live in a society

2020-03-10 00:25:19 UTC  

Yikes. Do you reckognize the distinction between "ability to be moral without god" and "ability to justify morality without god"

2020-03-10 00:25:22 UTC  

Where pedophilia is immoral

2020-03-10 00:25:30 UTC  

So don't strawman me again weakling

2020-03-10 00:25:59 UTC  

woah we bringing out the personal insults

2020-03-10 00:26:05 UTC  

Yes because you strawmaned me

2020-03-10 00:26:19 UTC  

Here let me do it again. You're a weakling for strawmaning me instead of addressing my actual argument

2020-03-10 00:26:27 UTC  

So, you gonna address the actual argument now, or what?

2020-03-10 00:26:31 UTC  

those two ideas go hand in hand

2020-03-10 00:26:46 UTC  

you need to justify the morality of something in order to see something as moral

2020-03-10 00:26:51 UTC  

No they don't. I know fascist atheists who are moral in terms of how they act. And yet they still can't justify their morality

2020-03-10 00:26:52 UTC  

No

2020-03-10 00:26:56 UTC  

That's obviously incorrect

2020-03-10 00:27:16 UTC  

i am saying that that was not a strawman

2020-03-10 00:27:28 UTC  

And I'm saying it was a strawman because i never said you cant be moral without god

2020-03-10 00:27:36 UTC  

Being moral means acting out in a moral manner

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1889186116300385

The results of what we've seen of treatment to rapists and sex offenders offer positive results as the reduction rates can be over a dozen or higher with just limited attention to these programs

2020-03-10 00:27:45 UTC  

Many people act out in a moral manner and yet can't justify it

Meaning the reduction will rise with the ability to concentrate more on these methods

2020-03-10 00:28:04 UTC  

I bet if you ask someone who's 80 iq a deeply philosophical question about why what he does is moral, he wouldn't really be able to justify it, now would he

Meaning the prison system as it stands doesn't stop rapists as much as even the low standard limited treatment does

2020-03-10 00:28:27 UTC  

Cool but thatโ€™s not the point

2020-03-10 00:28:32 UTC  

It is the point

2020-03-10 00:28:39 UTC  

People justify their morality based on their โ€œright and wrongโ€

2020-03-10 00:28:43 UTC  

I'm demonstrating how they don't go hand it hand

2020-03-10 00:28:51 UTC  

Thatโ€™s based on what theyโ€™ve heard and their empathy

2020-03-10 00:28:54 UTC  

Thats emotions

2020-03-10 00:29:20 UTC  

Irrelevant? Stop shifting the goal post. Do you now agree after what I said, that acting our in a moral manner doesn't necessitate knowing why your morality is good?

2020-03-10 00:30:07 UTC  

You donโ€™t need to bring iq into it is what i meant
