[Serious] The Good

The "consensus of belief" is not moral realism, it's moral relativism.  I'm not interested in litigating this with you, I can understand why any nominally rational person would doubt it.

It's not as if I think that you're an idiot for being skeptical....right?

Back to the ipse dixit, I see. That seems to be your favorite argument.

"A survey from 2009 involving 3,226 respondents found that 56% of philosophers accept or lean towards moral realism (28%: anti-realism; 16%: other)." ~ Wikipedia

You're simply going from bad to worse here.

Since you're unwilling to support your claim, I see no option but simply to dismiss it as any rational person would. You're behaving a lot more like a religious person who has attached himself to an irrational idea than a person who actually has any answers. Your absurd refusal to support your claim is simply an example of this. As I recall, that was the same behavior you exhibited in our conversation before, preferring to simply dismiss my arguments by telling me that I didn't know what the fuck I was talking about rather than actually answering my arguments. I normally appreciate your opinions on many things, but in this area you display all the signs of being a common nutter. Since you refuse to provide evidence otherwise, I'm left following where the evidence leads. As Hume said, “A wise man apportions his beliefs to the evidence.”
