Moral relativism

[Yakuda]

so no morality before Jesus?

I like your style but that will fail scrutiny by many parties.

Jesus restated morality beatifully. I must say.

reciprocity, the sum of the law and the prophets', the main message. the moral teaching in a single phrase.

the devil hates succinctness.

Where did I say that? Jesus is God. God has always existed.

Irrelevant

Im pretty sure Jesus isnt worried how beautifully you think he restated morality.

No

of course he does because it exposes his lies, like morals are relative

 

[Yakuda]

If you do not believe there is an absolute TRUTH, then you have no reason to remain a living, STRIVING, human being. So why do you not blow your own brains out, ASAP? Either that, or, say, stick your finger up your ass and go "TING-A-LING - A -LOO" until you biologically expire?

I don't geddit.

Please explain.

You misunderstood. I was answering someone who believe morals are not absolute. He keeps telling me his opinion and I told him his opinion is like his morals they're his. Stating that there is no absolute truth, according to him, so it renders his opinion meaningless.

Is it immoral for a teenager to drink wine? It is legal in Germany.

So there is not universal morality. Mormons think all drinking is immoral.

 

[Jerry Mathers]

now were into legal theories and laws for different reasons.

murder laws have a different basis and importance than traffic violations, for instance

yes there is.

your little example proved nothing.

they might have good health advice mixed up with morality. that's a healthy perversion and I'm fine with it.

No, Mormons think drinking alcohol is immoral.

It can get blurry when abuse often seems inevitable.

there's a chance they're right.

All alcohol is immoral.

 

[Jerry Mathers]

All alcohol is immoral.

All alcohol is immoral.

I suspect you may be right.

 

[IBDaMann]

just answer why. you masonic fucktoids have gone completely retarded with your pseudo-intellectual, mallibeeral, devil worshipping, corporate cocksucking bullshit.

Why? ... to support globalist fascism, what else? I see you already noticed the masonic devil worshiping corporate cocksucking bullshit so I won't repeat it. I was, however, considering some moral baby-killing and some white-hat nihilism, but I thought I'd get your opinion first.

 

[IBDaMann]

All alcohol is immoral.

... with Captain Morgan being the notable exception.

@Yakuda


does AI have the right to be treated morally.

No, it's not conscious.

and is it wrong to kill a terminator robot sent to get you?

No. It's not alive and isn't conscious.

 

[ZenMode]

No it begins with Jesus

Because hurling non-believers into a lake of fire is reasoning done by someone who is the basis for morality?

 

[ZenMode]

So there is not universal morality. Mormons think all drinking is immoral.

We already agreed that there is universal, objective morality in some situations. There will always be debates on some questions of morality, especially when you're talking about religion which labels some absolutely nonsensical things as immoral, but other things can be labeled as universally immoral... like FGM, child sex crimes, etc.

 

[IBDaMann]

If you do not believe there is an absolute TRUTH, then you have no reason to remain a living, STRIVING, human being.

You've opened up an interesting can of philosophical paradox. We can assume that there is an absolute truth, and we can equally assume that no one knows what it is (Goedel's Incompleteness Theorem).

Ergo, what does one's belief about that which no one knows determine whether one has reason to remain a living, STRIVING, human being?

So why do you not blow your own brains out, ASAP?

Way too funny! You have declared that he has no reason to remain a living, STRIVING, human being, and now you are asking why he hasn't already blown his brains out. Awesome!

The best part is that you did all this because he holds a different belief from yours, i.e. whether or not there is an absolute truth! I appreciate the good, hearty laugh. That was amazing. Thank you.

Either that, or, say, stick your finger up your ass and go "TING-A-LING - A -LOO" until you biologically expire?

You've given him options. Well done. You've done all you can do.

I don't geddit. Please explain.

Great post!

It's really just a pond of fire. They had to make some cutbacks. It has a nice fountain, though.

Does my sofa have a right to be treated morally? What about a hammer?

and is it wrong to kill a terminator robot sent to get you?

What if my sofa or hammer were sent to kill you?
