i dont believe tha
Not anymore
I dont think moral relativism can exist in a world like ours
It plainly exists.
Well lets put it this way
Why do you think they do what they do?
i dont think everyone who does evil things is evil. However, i know there are evil people out there. Complete sociopaths or psychopaths who not only hurt people in sadistic ways, but find pleasure in doing so
And not just physical pain
I disagree with you a bit. Everyone who does evil is evil because evil means intent. People can do bad things for good reasons, but Evil is Evil
If you do something horrible without meaning to i dont think thats evil
I agree
I mean to say that "evil things" != horrible things
**Wesker#6593** just left the server.
In my opinion, good and evil are psychological terms used to justify a certain type of behavior, and disapprove of others, based on personal conviction, culture, and past-experience
Isn't evil subjective? Then again this depends on the context of the conversation that all of you are having.
some things about it are subjective yes, but, given we are all humans, there are things that are universal between us
And i also find that "evil" most often comes from disorder and tragedy
For example, i think Hitler would have never started the Nazi party if he had a therapist and personal fulfillment in his early life
But Hitler though the nazi party was morally right
I'll have to scroll up & read the conversation in a bit. Sadly I'm at work so I can only see so much at a time.
Yes but thats a bit of a fallacy. Everything has a cause and effect. You could use that logic to argue no one is responsible for anything because their life is full of circumstances out of their control
It's not popular, but the fact is even political ideologies have root in a person's biology
Brb i'll rant a bit later
Dinner time
No matter how much therapy Hitler would go through, he would have turned out atleast similar, maybe without the inclination to literally gas the Jews
Let's hope that's not the case Abel otherwise I'm more of a reject than I initially thought. That's not going to be good for my mental health lol.
something something free will debate rabbit hole
@ZerioctheTank Hey, I'm not saying people can be biologically Nazis
I'm saying people are biologically inclined to certain moral frameworks. From here they can go to the ideologies that serve those frameworks
Who we are is a combination of our biology and our experiences. so biology could actually play a part in who is and who isnt likely to fall into radical ideology
^
I guess? My guess is that if Hitler was born as a Jew, he would have been a radical Zionist
Double blind twin studies yield interesting results. Often twins separated at birth will end up leading very similar lives despite different circumstances
Not always
But often enough to make you wonder
Based on pure observation from watching my kids and my nieces and nephews, I agree with the idea that it's about 70% nature and about 30% nurture. You're born with a certain set of software that governs how you'll deal with incoming stimulus. The nature part is how that software is fine tuned
Maybe the ratio is different for everyone? Nature vs nuture. Who's more inclined to what, and how do we determine that ratio.
Now obviously, that can change depending on the magnitude of the nature and it can completely override the software but I think for a majority of cases it holds
