Your moral system has jack shit to do with moral realism, why would you expect it to be the same?(January 25, 2019 at 6:53 pm)Gae Bolga Wrote: Take some time, work out exactly what your objection to moral realism is, and when you can clearly articulate that, I'll head back around to the thread.
I already did, I stated my objection to your moral realism.
Here’s the shortest version of it:
You yourself stated that evaluative propositions are not facts.
Quote:Calling the holocaust bad, is a value judgement, value judgements are evaluative propositions.If you say so..but it isn't necesarrily so, and doesn't matter if it is so. Why ask if you didn't want the answer?
Quote:There for the claim that the holocaust or anything else being called morally bad, a moral fact, is false.I think it's more likely that you don't know how to think or word good and stuff. All that you're telling me is that moral realism..what I'm describing to you, has nothing to do with what you want to bitch about. I see that it's starting to bleed over into other threads.
Why not just skip all this foreplay and shout whatever it is you really need atheists to know about how you feel into a frothing goodbye thread?
