morality is subjective and people don't have free will
RE: morality is subjective and people don't have free will
(May 16, 2017 at 1:02 pm)Neo-Scholastic Wrote: Personally, I find somewhat parochial to maintain a dichotomy between natural and supernatural. Since the distinction is based on what people would consider ordinarily and or possible given what they know at the time. If, as in Newton’s time, someone doesn’t know about nuclear forces the source of the sun’s power would be considered supernatural since no known source of power could keep it burning. Why presuppose supernaturalism? Because every time we think we know all the answers about how the world works something comes along that challenges that paradigm and naturalism gets redefined, as it already has been countless times.

What I know, not what I think, is that thousands of years of human evolution has been plenty of time to realize that god does not exist.

We can be absolutely certain about the non-existence of unicorns and leprechauns, Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny and Freddy Krueger, but goodness forbid that theists use their fucking brains to realize that god is not real.

Grow the fuck up, because evolving means that you outgrow the infancy of ridiculous beliefs and join the rest of the logical world.
