Why Secular Morality is Superior

[elunico13]

Who thinks they can tell me why murder is wrong apart from the biblical God?

I don't need a god to know that I don't want to be murdered, nor do I need a god to possess empathy so that I would not want others to be murdered, either.

Besides, why cite the God of a bible which so frequently and callously endorses murder and commits tons of it himself?

Maybe you'd be a Grand Theft Auto character without your delusions to keep your behavior in check, but I find it in myself not to slaughter people at random every day.

So you find it in yourself. Seems pretty arbitrary. Whats to keep the next person from asserting the exact opposite? You can't say they are wrong, but just different.

You can't violate without having a freedom to choose. Baking soda doesn't choose to react with vinegar. That's called chemistry, which is what you believe you are. The will of another is unimportant in an evolution worldview. No one is under your arbitrary "social contract" and obligated to obey whatever you say. No pain no gain, right? Why would you love random mutations from pond scum? Any other society can arbitrarily assert the opposite.

At least you tried.

Oh dear, you're dumber than I thought (and that's saying a lot).

Your mind, according to evolution, is a result of random chemical reactions. So your thoughts are irrelevant in making any knowledge claims.

Why would you start a thread in philosophy concerning ethics and not know the flaws with your own theory on it?
Don't you know the problems with private and cultural/societal subjectivism?
