I think the fact that there is such a universal consensus through all cultures and countries that certain things are wrong, supports the belief that morality is objective and that we have an inherent understanding of that. No other "opinion" is so universal as it is when it comes to these black and white moral issues. So if you wipe out the human race would evil still exist? Could a machine left behind be able to measure evil? RE: One sentence that throws the problem of evil out of the window.

But, and this will look like exactly the same thing, it just so happens you will find near unanimity of agreement that those things are wrong subjectively. The fact that it is only near unanimity accords better with the evil being a subjective phenomenon than an objective one. The universality of certain moral dispositions do make them objective in that sense. But the objectivity arises in a subjective arena. Morality is a subjective phenomenon.

You may think what he says is looney, and his way of talking IS different... but he's never mean or disrespectful of anyone. Why be mean to him? I think it's largely because he used to be more reasonable and he's lost that, which is both tragic and irritating.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world.

Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Wait, so raping children is just subjectively wrong? The hell?? There is no possible justification for raping children ever. That's objectively wrong. Don't defend crap like that just to give your point more weight

Because he acts as though what he is saying is steeped in profoundity and revelation, when in reality it's nothing more than sanctimonious prose shit-packed with deepities (if they even qualify as that.) And, he has the audacity to preach it to us. Also, he regularly tells us all that we actually do believe in god, and that we're just lying when we say we don't, which I find extremely rude, and annoying.
