[swag]

Erik was understood in his time, but was a victim of future judgment. How was he to know that women's suffrage was a virtue and separate-but-equal education systems would not be?

What's up with all these new threads? "circumcision: yes or no", "is it ok to enslave people", "can we kill babies", etc. Why not just consolidate into one big "stupid questions" thread?

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

I agree, but we already have one of those.

Each thread serves its own specific purpose I suppose.

Burke.. Is it too late to change the question into," Is it moral to torture babies if your moral standard suggests it is moral" ?

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Is it okay to torture babies if you think it's okay?

 

[Enron]

Is it moral to have sex with a man if you think it's moral?

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Exactly.

Then everyone would answer yes.

Is it okay to torture babies if you think it's okay?

Yup. That's what I intended to ask.

 

[rounder]

Exactly.

Then everyone would answer yes.

Just because you think you are doing something morally, you think this automatically deems you actions as moral?

Is it moral to refer to arabs as towel heads and blacks as niggers as long as you think it's moral?*


*Not intended to offend to arabs and blacks.

Your question makes no sense. You are asking people if it is okay to do something even if they already think it's moral to do so.

If a guy loves shoes and you ask him if it's moral to wear shoes, of fucking course he'll say yes. HE'S A SHOE WEARER!

That's basically the definition of insanity.

You are misunderstanding my question man. Let me put it this way.

If I went and killed 20 chinese people because I believe it is morally right to do so, are my actions justified? Because technically, I am just acting according to my moral standard right? I'm doing nothing wrong, right? But that's NOT the case, I AM doing something wrong, regardless of what I think.

 

[Elvin]

Why not, if they're into that kinda thing, I'm game.

Do you still don't know what objective means? Do they have dictionaries in Lebanon?

It's called insanity. Not being able to tell right from wrong.

There are societal norms and I think the forum has established that. The real question is what is your motivation behind constantly asking the same thing over and over?

Justified? What do you mean by that, because we live in a world governed by law, so if you would do somewhere where it is against law it wouldnt be justified, if you were in some country where people eat chinese for diner then yes, you would be justified.

He doesn't know the difference between subjective and objective. He has no idea what the two words really mean. Because of this he's confused and is asking irrelevant questions.

JR:

Subjective = from the subject
