Heaven seems awful 2 me-"Theist laughs at loudly & with great cruelty"

RE: Heaven seems awful 2 me-"Theist laughs at loudly & with great cruelty"
If you're talking about reality, then philosophy is only effective when properly combined with evidence. Trying to extend knowledge beyond what can be measured in some way is not sophisticated, it is worthless blind speculation.

If you're talking about morality, what is and isn't acceptable, then there are no right answers. Any two people need to agree on what the goals of morality actually are, before the discussion can even begin. And unless some incredibly simplistic measure is being used, it's still going to be largely a matter of opinion (within a reduced scope). There are however bad answers, which use flawed reasoning and so aren't even internally consistent. There are also answers which offer a detailed explanation, and those which are simply a decree.
Feel free to send me a private message.
