Why is it objectively wrong to torture babies, Acro?
I attempted to answer your question several ways, I don't see myself dancing, I just find myself a bit confused as to what it is you're asking, and perhaps it has something to do with a difference in how you and i use the term objective wrong.
You have, so far, not made any intellectually honest attempt to answer the question. You really can’t think of any reason why torturing babies is wrong then? Lol, okay. Remind me never to ask you to babysit. You said, “torturing babies is wrong.” I asked: “why?” Some five pages later I still don’t have an answer. You started with, “because it’s hateful”, which I explained has everything to do with personal, subjective feelings, and nothing to do with the objective wrongness of the act. Beyond that, you blathered on about definitions, and then told me what you think other people’s answers would be.

JFC. And I’m asking you to give me the reason why X is fucking wrong.
Quote:So the way your question comes across, is like asking me why is my wife's dress objectively yellow?
You can’t think of a reason or explanation for the yellow color of your wife’s dress, lol?
