Nkuhuma Pride

@NLAL11 Morality is relative. What humans debate or not is irrelevant. We could all, 100%, agree that murder is immoral, but we'd still be unable to prove why. Not to say, there are over 8 billion people in this world and you'll never get all of them to agree in anything, literally, no matter how much common sense it is.

I only brought God into this to show that morality is subjective. Unless a superior being shows up and states what is morality right, nobody can prove what it is, we can just give subjective opinions. "That morality system from culture X is cool and it works", this is the best we can do, proving it is actually real and absolute, that it is true, is impossible.

We all accept murder is wrong because we're taught it is, we know it's not beneficial for the society to allow murder, reason why it's a crime, but from a morality point of view, nobody can prove why it is wrong, because all morality is relative. It isn't even different from animals. Lions don't kill members of their own pride even though it would come in handy to kill and eat some during times of need. Certain groups of humans don't kill their own, but have no issues killing some other humans from other groups, see the Vikings for instance, nobody gave a single damn if they raided some other country and killed someone in the process, or if they kidnapped someone, or if they took slaves...

Dolphins, apes and the such can make sacrifices them according to you? I'm not getting your point about why only humans can do that as you move the goalpost all the time.


Is it the mirror? The ability to count? What?

Humans are also animals, don't forget that, we're just smarter, but not even in everything. In terms of short-term memory for instance, chimps are superior. Reply
