Moral relativism

[Hume]

For the govt to PROTECT those rights not grant them. Read

I read the Constitution.

 

[Yakuda]

I read the Constitution.

Read the D of I it's a founding document and outlines why a constitution is needed.

I have read it.

 

[Yakuda]

I have read it.

Then you either don't care or don't understand it. Where does Jefferson say rights come from?

 

[Hume]

Then you either don't care or don't understand it. Where does Jefferson say rights come from?

Jefferson did not write the Constitution.

 

[Yakuda]

Jefferson did not write the Constitution.

He wrote the D of I. You said you read it.

 

[Hume]

He wrote the D of I. You said you read it.

And?

 

[Yakuda]

And?

And you can't answer my question, where does he say rights come from? I'm trying to be respectful but you make it very difficult.

 

[Hume]

And you can't answer my question, where does he say rights come from? I'm trying to be respectful but you make it very difficult.

Answered. The Declaration has no legal authority.

 

[Yakuda]

Answered. The Declaration has no legal authority.

Not what I asked. I think you like being insulted

 

[Hume]

Not what I asked. You I think you like being insulted

No, you ignored my answer. Does not matter what the Declaration says, it was written before there was the United States.
And I know more American history than you have the capacity to comprehend.

 

[Yakuda]

No, you ignored my answer. Does not matter what the Declaration says, it was written before there was the United States.
And I know more American history than you have the capacity to comprehend.

And you STILL haven't answered the question, where does TJ say rights come from?

 

[ZenMode]

Yes they did absolutely. Otherwise, why write a Constitution?

The Constitution wasn't written to grant rights. It was written to restrict government's ability to infringe on natural rights.

 

[Uncensored2008]

They shouldn't be.
I would lie to Nazis if they asked me if I knew where Jews were hiding, and I did in fact know.

But not to El-Sayed, Piker, Omar, and Mamdani. You'd draw maps to where the Jews are hiding for you modern day Nazi buddies.

 

[Uncensored2008]

You do less harm to humanity and your conscience blatantly lying to Nazis than you would do by leading them to the hiding places of Jews

You'd do even less harm by not being a Nazi democrat in the first place.

The Jews are in Israel, and you campaign for those who want to kill them and take their country for the glory of Muhammad.

I don't know if you actually attend pro-Hamas riots, but I do know you support and promote them here.

Don't pretend you are any different than the average Nazi in 1940 was, because you're not.

 

[Hume]

The Constitution wasn't written to grant rights. It was written to restrict government's ability to infringe on natural rights.

Not really, no. That is just the Bill of Rights, amendments.

How is it an ad hominem?

Hummer's response was Ad Hominem. Perhaps he was just defining what would follow?

 

[Diogenes]

Hummer's response was Ad Hominem. Perhaps he was just defining what would follow?

I doubt he knows what he posts.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Kantians do not agree.

I find it difficult to believe you have ever read Kant, Hummer.

But of course the concept of the "Greater Good" is not as you claim. In fact @Cypress is in line with Kant on this, as his "white lie" would create the greatest good for the greatest number of people.

 

[Hume]

I find it difficult to believe you have ever read Kant

Why?
