It's a cheap and simple way to be rid of someone's arguments without using any yourself. I may be odd but I think arguments should be used in a discussion instead of just yelling "nazi" etc. It's sad for the diversity of politics and sentiments in gernal that everything that Mr H ever said is stigmatized and can't comfortably be discarded as crap. The holocaust was very stupid and it serves asIOfTheStorm said:Why dont try to "knock you down" with a reference to Hitler? What you said is not that different from what he used to say, especially that :
"You are not special" ?. Of course I'm not special for the vast majority of the world, but that doesn't change anything since I don't belive in an absolute objectivity. I have only one reference point and that's myself, and if I feel that my existance is worthwhile/important, then it is.Look at the first part of my signature for a start.
Hm... I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at here, are you saying I can't have opinions about what should happen to other people? If so, that is because?Then since its not YOUR life, you have no right to judge what will happen to another life that doesnt affect yours, and it doesnt do anything wrong to others too (like the lifes of thousands and thousands of dead children down there in Asia).
And guess what, some "already made up moral codes", exist for SOME REASONS!QUOTE]
It would be more interesting if you actually made a suggestion as to why the moral codes exist instead of just stating a fact. But of course the people who made up the codes had reasons for them, but what they were or if they are valid/relevant today is a matter of discussion. The moral of today, I would say is mainly there to support the current world order and would you claim that that is a perfect order? If not then you can't really say that the morals that stem from it are absolute either, right?
Why is it black and white? If this conversation is to lead somewhere you need to at least try to motivate your standpoints.In this case its all about BLACK AND WHITE, it is either GOOD or BAD. And thousands people dying is just plain B-A-D. It is very SIMPLE. If you fail to understand this, i cant help you sorry.
