So, consequentialist legal positivism? Yuck.
No, its delicious.

No, it's actually immoral 'as all get out.'
Oh -- get out of town. How so?
It beats a pretend scaffolding attached to an unproveable, unfathomable force.

Human rights?
A deity.

Yeah. God gave us human rights.
But you don't have to believe that.
To believe in human rights.
And in moral theory based on human rights.
I.e. not consequentialism, and not legal positivism.
You brought up those terms. You can have them. They only obliquely apply to what I mentioned to right divider.
Meanwhile autocracy has no balancing mechanism leaving evil to grow unchecked. A Democratic Republic is the closest humans can come to government by reason because it exposes ego and superstition.

That's a lot of meaningless words. Since they were produced by random impulses in your head.
I have a foundataion for morals and ethics. Your purely material world has none.
I do not think you know what random means. Evolution is not a random process and neither is morality based on reason rather.
Your foundation is illusory. A ball of contradictions can do you no good even though you have a sense of deluded certainty.

So again your are saying that "Evolution" is a guided process. And yet you claim that there is no guide.
Not mine... yours is.
So says that one that has no foundation whatsoever for judgment of right and wrong.

You are hereby denying human rights? RD believes in human rights. That's his foundation. Human, rights
There's nothing contradictory about RD's belief in human rights, Skeeter.
What's your PhD in?
Stop looking for who and start understanding how.
You think you have access to absolute right and wrong through God. You strain to make sense of a sacred book and apply it to modern problems?
If we agree to the simply criteria that it is a virtue to reduce human suffering and increase satisfaction, then we can build a testable moral framework that co-exists along side law, using empiricism and developing precedent along the way.

I know WHO... if you have a HOW you could provide it.
All you have is atoms... there are no rights and wrongs based on atoms.
I accept the truth.
Again, how to get that from atoms... since the material world is all that you have?
There is no need to be that reductionistic. The whole is greater than its parts.
On what basis? You reject empirical method.
At least I stay in the real world.
Right Divider
Body part
Again an unsupported claim.
I do NOT reject the empirical method. I reject materialism.
No, you live in a dream world.
