No, I'm not. Social Darwinism is insane, and anyone who thinks it's a good idea is insane. That's a value judgement by me, of course. I'm not the arbiter of who is and isn't sane, or what value system is "the best".

How could anyone get social Darwinism from my arguments? I'm explicitly saying no value system is objectively correct. So how can I be arguing for an individual one? I've even said my own value system isn't objectively better than anyone elses.

Wow, I am exhausted after writing all that shit. I gotta go kill some weak and diseased people, laters!

PS: Wait, now I get it. Because I'm describing scientifically how morality came about in the first place, that means I'm saying that I advocate trying to "help evolution" as a value system. Of course not. It's just the facts of the matter. It's no use pretending it's not.

PPS: I'm getting way too obsessed with this forum again! I'm gonna take a break for a few days, anyone else is welcome to pick up this debate for me Smile If not I'll see where it's at when I get back. Peace out Roadrunner Big Grin
