    Moral Relativity?

    Hmmm. It's a common rule of the art of debate (which I have studied extensively), that the losing party always resorts to insults and accusations of ignorance when they know they are losing. Thanks for boosting my confidence and solidifying my standpoint Mortai. Your comments only serve as 1...

    Moral Relativity?

    I am choosing to opt out of this conversation because I can see that you all want to embrace blatant logic errors. Having come from multiple logic courses and hours spent studying the topic, I find it impossible to converse with someone who finds in nesseccary to suspend the laws of logic in...

    Moral Relativity?

    Wrong again. Relative morality *does* allow anyone to do what they want and justify it(in theory). Otherwise, what is the purpose of it? It may not allow a person to do what they want in actuality(because various things [such as law enforcement] would stop them), but it allows them to...

    Moral Relativity?

    But laws are based on morals, or else they wouldn't exist. You can't tell an officer: "Well yes sir, I broke in to this house, but I think it was morally ok to that." He would say: "No, it wasn't. The law decides right and wrong, not you."

    Moral Relativity?

    Logiclul: Let me ask you a few questions, to clarify what you are saying here. 1. At what point in life (after we become self-aware) do we start recognizing right and wrong? Is it when our parents tell us? Is it when we get disciplined for doing "wrong"? Is it when we are legally old...
