Well, that was short lived. A measly 20-30 pages? Won't even get you into the also rans. If you want to be a contender you'll have to dip into that stamina the human animal is so well adapted for and really give it a go. We've had credible specimens here put in 20 times the work in a single thread.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I take appropriate responses very seriously. I am not here for some sort of competition, lol.
You've given no one any reason to believe that any of that is true - but as I said before, it's never too late to back down from being an asshole, and learn something.
Let's give it a try. You initially thought that evolution could not account for morality because, as you tell the tale, it hadn't occurred to you that morality could be the creation of social forces. That, would be called cultural relativism - one of the major views on what morality actually is. Did you have similar misperceptions of other views on morality? Perhaps you meant to say that evolution could not account for a non cognitive morality, or a subjective morality, or a realist morality?

You know, because I'm light-hearted, like to have fun, confident in my viewpoints, and join a site that pretty much everyone will disagree with me, does not make me a troll. At this point, I'm scared to say that I might not even fully believe in evolution, because all I will hear is how stupid I am and how much of a troll I am. Here's the kicker, If I don't mention it then I'm not a troll, but if I do mention it then I am a troll. It's that easy to be a troll right? RE: Evolution cannot account for morality

You haven't actually determined that the site you joined disagrees with you in any meaningful way. I see you passed...again..on the opportunity to discuss the subject you made a thread about.
Cool. I don't think it's really relevant whether you do or don't believe in evolution. As whether you believe in it or not - what it could and couldn't account is another question entirely. Additionally, you've already been thrown a life rope in the form of tentative agreement - that evolution may not..in fact,...whether it happened or didn't..account for some conceptions of morality. Do you wanna talk about that, or do some troll-not-troll-shit? Your call.

See how that works? |
