Quote:Murder - Objectively bad.You didn't mention any, there's nothing that says an objective morality can't....? How would you rate severity, is there some scale or idea by which you can ay that severity is objectively x? If there is, that's an attempt at an objective morality.
Theft - Objectively bad.
Gratitude - Objectively good.
Charity - Objectively good.
There is no mention of severity.
Quote:Murder and theft are both objectively bad but which is worse? Objective morality skips that part. Bible tells us breaking any of the ten commandments are enough to land us in hell. It's not possible to rate the severity of each acts objectively because it may not necessarily coincide with the value system of individuals and also because that would mean Objective morality isn't really all that objective but rather subjective after all.Why would objective morality skip that part?
Quote:Rape - Objectively bad.I;m not sure why you think objective morality suggests that...that's all you...lol? However, suppose that were true? Wouldn't that immediately contradict your previous criticisms of objective morality as not being able to handle extenuating circumstances? Two cents were the extenuating circumstances, now rape is less bad.......or?
Charity - Objectively good.
Believe in objective morality? Drop her 2 cents after you're done raping her that'll clear everything up.
I just dont.......bah, lol.
