The laws of any country, as bad as they might be (that's not for you to decide anyway) are much better than the fantasy of the GR. Your immoral reasoning is in itself proof that the GR is a fallacy. For morality good and bad needs to be defined. The GR defines nothing.(July 24, 2013 at 11:52 pm)Attie Wrote: Your arguments are nothing but subjective tantrums. It takes a god-head to accept the GR as not being BS. In practice the GR is nowhere to be found. A better moral code is the practiced laws of any country and then some are better and some are worse. In fact, the GR has no effect on the moral codes of any society in the same way as the color of the ink or quality of paper they are written in and on have an effect.
You can't argue in favor of something that can't be applied in practice on it's own. The GR cannot be applied in practice. It's an subjective illusion. It is BS!
Are you seriously trying to say that morality is based on the legal system of a country? That something in one country is moral there, but immoral in the neighbouring country? Are you actually that thick? Do you know what morality is? Do you know that some moral actions aren't covered by any laws? That laws can sometimes be stupid, ill-judged and designed purely to gain popularity with the electorate, rather than... oh, I don't know, anything to do with morality? If morality shapes those laws, which morality system is doing that shaping? This isn't so much a chicken & egg thing. You have the chicken and you're pretending that the egg doesn't exist, or that the egg is the chicken.
The sheer level of stupidity that you've exhibited is almost awe inspiring.
I was going to say that you didn't tackle either of those thought experiments, but it is obvious that you're not capable of such a thing.
