came with. Till now i have not
stopped thinking, nobody knows. now

EXPERIENCE. I AM DYING SLOWLY. I NEED

dalaman:
Sure, but but many moral actions have to be learned

urheme:
There are positive morality that are generally termed objective but however acceptability of moral norms is limited to a territorial jurisdiction.

There are legislated morality in some jurisdictions which may not be acceptable in another jurisdiction. peoples established customs and traditions made morality a subjective term.

dalaman:
False, if nature prescribes morality then morality wouldn't be learned. We won't be teaching our kids the difference between right and wrong if it is something natural like crying or sleeping. We dont teach our kids gow to cry or sleep, because its natural. Parents have to spend a lot of their time teaching their kids about morality because it isn't natural. Morality is a human creation.

orisa37:
Nature prescribes Morality. Nature is Subjective. Morality is Objective.

My kid bro got this in waec.. Marketing B3, Geography D7, Civic B3, English B3, Igbo C5, Maths A1, Biology B2, Chemistry Outstanding, Physics B2... He has drowned himself in tears already. Will the outstanding result be released?

hopefulLandlord:
From observation and the fact that evidence so far points to this. also the fact that those that advocate for objective morality can't seem to demonstrate it to be true. I think objective morality is a claim that doesn't pass for testability. its like me claiming there's an objective flavour of ice cream. there might very well be but how do I demonstrate it to be true? till I'm able to then it makes sense to say its subjective

It seems I'm attacking objective morality more than I'm defending subjective morality though
I don't see how proponents of objective morality can demonstrate it isn't either.

Anything we think morality is starts from arbitrariness then appear to move gradually away from there

festwiz:
1. Yes. Like what someone pointed out as regarding gay laws for example.

2. Murder is subjectively wrong. We have security outfits such as the military, police etc that commit murder with 'buts'. If it were to be objectively wrong, then wars won't be fought, criminals won't be killed etc. It may not be the best thing in the world, but there is always a time when it's necessary. Let's look at self defense for example whence you "accidentally" commit murder. It doesn't change the fact that it's murder 'but', this person could've probably killed you and your family and a whole lot more.

festwiz:
Mortality is subjective. It can't be objective given the different peoples and their ideologies.

I feel if morality is objective, it would hinder a lot of progress

RuthlessLeader:
I think morality is subjective. Morality improves as we gain more knowledge. Once we gain all the knowledge that can ever exist, we can then have an objective morality.

Gggg102:
I think that aspect is left out a lot even though it is very important.


From a realistic point of view, morality is subjective as shown by history.

From an idealistic point of view a subjective morality creates a world where nobody is wrong. What is immoral for you could be moral for me and since morality is subjective, you would not be able to condemn me. Objective morality works in an ideal environment.

hopefulLandlord:
Morality is subjective, it has always been and would continue to be

people who argue for objective morality especially the religious ones are just attempting to hijack what morality is. this became necessary for them as religion answered less and less questions than it did in the past, its lost most of its relevancy so they're left with inserting religion into as many things as they can. the problem I have with religious people who advocate for objective morality is that they CAN'T demonstrate how they came to that conclusion without being fallacious, facetious, making logic jumps and guesses along the way

Observation alone shows morality is subjective although I learnt Dalaman thinks morality is objective, I would like to hear his argument and perhaps change my mind or his

I BET MY LEFT TESTES THAT BRAZIL WILL WIN

Bobbybabs:
Streaming link please.

Gggg102:
That's the explanation I got.

God made a plan, but does not choose who follows the plan.
Anyone who chooses to follow the plan arrives at the end God destined with the plan.

Gggg102:
He could be omnipotent and choose not to act.

Gggg102:
I heard an explanation for this that made sense.
the person said the only part that is God's will is the part that is related to salvation/spirituality. God only destined salvation plans. every other aspect is freewill.
like you made a plan, and every other thing outside the plan is not under your control.

let's say you open a school. you will lay down plans on how the school would be run, the curriculum, the overall school master plan and the rest. you don't destine if students drop out or pull through. you only have your master plan, you don't destine who follows the plan and who doesn't.

dorox:
Free will it is for me.

amethystnnty1:
Marriage was never about men. A cost benefit analysis would show on most cases that it is to the disadvantage of man.

bloodofthelamb:
I ok sir, keep on hoping.

CAPSLOCKED:

I JUST HAVE TO AGREE WITH THIS POST.

WOMEN ARE WOMEN'S GREATEST ENEMIES.

hilario8898:
Steve: Hey Ben, you see am what you call an atheist, so I don't believe in God.

Ben: Well Steve, sorry to disappoint, but you actually believe in God. You just don't think he likes you.

Steve: Oh really...

Ben: Ponder on that for a little while.

Steve: Well, think what you must, my thoughts are mine & mine alone

sonofthunder:
Has atheism ever been beneficial to humanity? what does 'it' have to offer?

bloodofthelamb:
Hope is the backbone of faith. Without hope, faith is dead. They go together, for faith is the substance of things hoped for.(Heb 11:1).

bloodofthelamb:
Johnydon22, let me diverge a little bit from the premise of your post.

Do you know if you will see tomorrow being the 5th of July 2018? If you know, where is your prove? If there is no prove, don't you think you are living on faith all this while and you did not realise it?

Pls, correct me if I am wrong.

Note: I am not wishing you harm.

Deprofessional:
If youn doubt some things in the bible, it is tantamount to saying you doubt the existence of God.

I will tell you what I have seen in life to make me believe in an almighty creator.

SHE'S GOING TO THINK FOR AS MUCH AS 300 YEARS AND COME UP WITH "I FEEL HIM IN MY HEART. GO CLOSER TO HIM BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE. DON'T ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE USED BY DEVIL. HELL IS REAL ".
IT'S A USUAL THING.
