Everyone in group B, when asked how they know torturing babies is wrong, says: “by using my own eyes.” Concomitantly, when group A is asked the same question, their answer also is: “by using my own eyes.
Let's make it even funner, by including you in a group C. Group C subscribes to some convoluted moral philosophy, with a list of criteria for what it takes for something to constitute as wrong.
Group B recognizes that torturing innocent babies is wrong, quicker than we recognize your dress is yellow. Group C on the other hand is lagging behind, they didn't recognize it was immediately wrong like group B, but instead had to take it, and submit it into the moral calculators they made, confirm that it meets their particular criteria and measurements, and only then was able to confirm that it was wrong.
Group C is total bullshit of course. Group C is actually a part of Group B. They just attach their standard and criteria after the fact. And then try and fool themselves into thinking that their recognition of wrong is the result of their special criteria.
How can group B know that Group A is wrong? They can just peer a little closer to group A, and realize that they're blind, that they're living in the dark. They're sick, deformed, and mad. Group C is also delusional, but it's more benign.
Lol, have I hit a nerve? 😏
“Blind”, sick”, “deformed”, and “mad” are all subjective descriptions of the people perceiving the act. It tells us nothing objective about the act itself. Group A could make the exact same assertion about group B. You have utterly failed to solve the conflict between these two groups using an objective standard.
And yeah, ofc I’m in group B. The difference between you and me though, is that I can articulate why I’m there, and you can’t. Or won’t. Acro, if you can’t give me one reason why it’s bad to torture babies, you probably can’t give me any reasons why it’s not. You do realize this is a problem for your position, yes?
Quote:What, exactly, are they being honest with themselves about with regard to the torture of babies, Acro? Is it that thing you don’t wanna say?
Quote:That it's dark, that it's a privation of the light. The wrongness is something seen, more so than said.
I don’t know what that means. Could you be more specific please?
