Now, with the preceding in mind, other than perhaps the positive psychological effects one might derive from being baptized, do you actually believe that the Christian ritual of baptism has any bearing on the outcome of one's soul post-death? Nothing I’d say would have any effect on your concretize...

And what it further suggests is that if it is indeed plausible that the logos contains (or is the source of) universal principles of morality that God wants us to abide by because God knows what's best for us,... ...then isn't it reasonable to assume that loosely similar to how the universal laws o...

And that's because as you know, good and well, he's just going to proclaim the Bible as his source for the proof of the existence of "objective morality," and he knows that there is simply no way of proving Biblical metaphysics to be objectively true. It may be so that he does assert The ...

As a Christian who claims to have "objective" morality at your calling, maybe you can give a definitive answer as to the following: A woman is raped by a psychopathic male and is impregnated. She wants no part of having that man's baby. Is it OK for her to abort the fetus before giving bi...

I know. But what is obvious is that for Subjectivists, the word "morality" cannot possibly have any content. It just means, "whatever I feel." And that is not morally commendable: neither others, nor even you can say that makes you objectively "moral." All it means is ...

_______ As it so clearly pertains to this thread, if you want to watch and hear an attractive young woman (with the voice of a lumberjack) give a very frank and eloquent description of her regretful experience in attempting to transition into a male and then back again, then watch this entertaining ...

Another mystery (to me, anyway) has to do with the parents of children like Jazz Jennings, for example, who was born a boy. According to Wiki (bracketed interjections mine)... Her ["his"] parents noted that Jennings was clear on being female as soon as she ["he"] could speak.......

There are a lot of adults with something to gain. It's a huge industry. But it starts with planting the idea in a child's mind. Mengele doctors are making millions from doing this to vulnerable, often autistic, young people. Another mystery (to me, anyway) has to do with the parents of children lik...

_______ A blond girl was wandering around town asking her neighbors and local businesses if they had any odd jobs she could do in order to earn some extra cash with which to replenish her dwindling supply of beauty products. She finally found a store owner who said: "...Sure, I'll give you 75 b...

You have said absolutely nothing to change my view, and you have said absolutely nothing to support your own. The first statement is true, plausibly; the second, verifiably not. There is page after page here of me arguing, with reasons, for objective morality. You haven't got an argument. All you'v...

Meanwhile Trump has offered his own version of objective morality in a rally today. In it he praises Hannibal Lecter as the "late great man". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uL0OWcvaG_Y And, of course, taking into account the deep knowledge of, and reverence for history held by the crowds...
