If we left you to it you'd still be using wood in your stove and be riding horses instead of electric cars while you tie women to those stoves to pop out babies you care not for. Progress is not a thing you can live with.

2026 soon come. No more cooking with gas in new homes in New York, Hurrah.
The law bans gas-powered stoves, furnaces and propane heating and effectively encourages the use of climate-friendly appliances such as heat pumps and induction stoves in most new residential buildings across the state. It requires all-electric heating and cooking in new buildings shorter than seven stories by 2026, and for taller buildings by 2029.

A baby is innocent, however I know where you are driving at, that God ordered the killing of innocent babies, in which case you are assuming God exist. If God exist then it is right for him to take back his property if and whenever he pleases because as God he owns all things.
So, god is subjective too?

Makes sense since subjective humans created it.

How do you think I could say what I am saying if I don't understand what I am saying?

Wouldn't a more objective response from you be that you don't understand what I am saying?

Objectivity and subjectivity are very difficult topics of discussion for those who cannot separate their own subjectivity from what is objective, you will grow to find in due time.

Romance › Re: How I Broke Up With My Babe Of 6 Months. Was I Wrong ? by budaatum:
Yes, you overreacted.

You yourself said you have "never been a stingy boyfriend. I have always provided for her to the best of my abilities and whenever she asked", so why did you not just tell her when was the last time you gave her money to make her hair and nails?

She is the one who broke up with you by telling you on your return that she was no more interested, so move on please.

Read please.
Still a point though. He would have been suspended in the end, and by his own party too, and a by-election would have held in which he might have lost or been reelected.

Harming someone is only right if it is just in which case it is not subjective.
If it is just, lol. Can you seriously not see that what is just is itself subjective, as in, in the eye of the beholder?

Steep:
Atheism allows no such, if there is no God then justice is meaningless.
It is not because of some god that I do not harm you. I do not harm you because I do not think it is morally right for me to harm you, and it is not morally right for me to harm you because I am certain I would not like it if you harm me. That is subjective, as in a thing that I have decided by my subjective self. I can equally subjectively decide that it is morally right for me to harm you and at the same time decide that it is morally wrong for you to harm me.

Steep:
For example not Harming innocent person is objective morality, self defense is objective, the onus lies on context not subjective
Have you not heard of a woman who was standing her ground and shot another woman standing at her door? Subjectively, as in, according to her, she committed no crime, and was only arrested when subjects cried out, but the courts would decide in the end.

Context makes a thing subjective. If context did not matter it would be objective, which it clearly isn't.

you have just contradicted yourself, when you said rape is never a good thing meaning rape is morally wrong objectively not subjective.
No, I haven't contradicted myself, yet. Though I might, since I do not consider being contradictory a moral wrong.

You are the one who is confused about subjectivity and objectivity. What is objective does not depend on any subject, but as I have pointed out to you, spousal rape is not morally wrong everywhere and does depend on subjects and where they are, hence it being subjective.

Wherever on earth you drop an apple, it would end up on the floor, all things being equal, but spousal rape is a crime in some countries and not a crime in others, and that shows that we, the subjects, decide what is morally right or wrong and not some god as you seem to believe.

If spousal rape were objectively morally wrong, it would be morally wrong wherever you were. Unfortunately spousal rape is not recognised in Nigeria, since we the Nigerian subjects have not yet decided it is wrong. You just need to imagine what would be said to a woman in Nigeria who claims her husband raped her. If she goes to the police they'd likely tell her that it is her husband's right to have sex with her wherever and whenever he wants to, while in some countries that husband would be arrested.

So, rape is subjective according to you? So rape can be a good thing it all depends on people's choice?
I did say this was way beyond your ability to comprehend, did I not?

Rape is never a good thing! The subjectivity of what is rape is however glaringly obvious since you can not be condemned for raping your wife in Nigeria where such an idea does not exist, yet. Or have you heard of a husband raping his wife in Nigeria? And if a wife in Nigeria claims her husband raped her would it be a crime?

..for where...with all the desperate politcians that we have everywhere in naija... even ondo state governor that is very sick now refuses to step down or resign from his governorhip position... wants to be in that government seat even in his sick bed
If nothing else, those desperate politicians will die and you will become the politician, and I trust you'd not do what the dead desperate politicians do. But if you do do what the dead desperate politicians do, you too would eventually die and your better brought up children will take over and not do what you or the dead desperate politicians before you did. And if your children are desperate like them and you, they too will die and your better brought up grandchildren will not be desperate like you or your children or those politicians. And if your grandchildren are like you or the dead desperate politicians before you or their parents, they too will die and your much better brought up great grandchildren might not be so desperate.

I have faith in you you see, and in your children if you disappoint, and in your grandchildren if you and your children disappoint, and in your great grandchildren if you and your children and your grandchildren disappoint, and in your great great grandchildren if you and your children and your grandchildren and your great grandchildren all disappoint.

A Nigeria we can be proud of is like Rome which was not built in a day but over centuries and generations. And you and your descendants don't even need to be politicians at all, just better educated electorate to elect non-desperate politicians.

My faith in you and your future descendants can not ever be quenched.

In the Bible, there are two types of death.

1. Spiritual death. This is the king of all deaths. Eternal separation from God.

2. Physical Death. This is just a transition. A separation of the spirit from its body.
Adam, who after eating the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and died "spiritual death", according to you, went on, according to the Bible, to populate the earth with the billions of human beings that have lived since then and died a physical death at 930 years old, which was 810 years after eating the fruit that supposedly killed him.

Dear God of FxMasterz, after I eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which I would surely definitely eat if placed in the Garden of Eden, please let me live only 93 years and let my descendants be only 1 billionth of Adam's. Amen.

That your wuruwuru, calling living, death, does not work on me. If you studied what is written about Christ, you'd know that the cure for people dying for lack of knowledge is to cure oneself by eating knowledge fruits. You'd live longer if you did.

Yes, I don't expect you to believe anything. I'll only tell you all the truth I know. To believe or not to believe is your personal choice.
That's the problem. You believe instead of seeking with all your heart and soul and mind and being so that you may know. Same way Adam believed he would die if he ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, until Eve decided to use her own senses to test so that she may actually know.

Bro, even psychologists are not in support of your views. When people murdered and raped and stole, did they start announcing themselves about that they're killers and thieves? But when a man does commendable things, he uses it to get glory.
Yes they did announce themselves! Go read about Julius Caesar and see how a murderer and thief was glorified, though I'm talking way before that.

Even in the Bible you get to read the glory of the Israelites plunderings and rapings! Some of it was so bad that it never got into the Bible you now read, since they evolved and saw it as mortally wrong and left most of it out, though at the time their gods sanctioned it.
