Argument from Conscience

[robvalue]

Not just that, but a really shit human too. One that can't even be as reasonable as your average guy on the street. Serious jealousy issues, egotistical, grudge holding, mind bendingly petty, easy to anger over unimportant things, deceptive, manipulative, violent... this is about the worst set of attributes a human could have. And it's all somehow passed off as "love".

Interesting observations Rob.  Just one quick question.  Do you believe that "love" exists apart from "judgment"?

Hmm, well these are vague terms. "Love" is just a description of emotions, or perhaps actions. It is not well defined, unless you set actual physical parameters for a certain person and were examining their brain.

Judgement? I'm not sure what you mean by this exactly. The ability to judge things...? I suppose that in a brain that receives information and is capable of moving into a state of "love" regarding a certain person, then it is by definition using some sort of judgement; judging that this person is nearby, and comparing them to the emotions held about them in the brain.

But these are very hazy terms, and I think I'm entirely missing the point of the question.

With regard to morality, this is what I am sensing from you but feel free to correct me: you are uncomfortable with the idea that there is no absolute to compare things to, because the consequences of that are no one can be ultimately "right" or "wrong" about morality.
