None of this is arbitrary but founded no objective reality. If it's founded on no objective reality, then it IS arbitrary, by definition. But you also said that they are "not fabricated by men, nor socially engineered." So where do they come from, and why are we obligated to follow them? ...

Notes: KIV

Notes: KIV I have argued [elsewhere] why the following moral elements are objective; 1. Oughtnot_ness to kill humans 2. Oughtnot_ness to torture and kill babies for pleasure https://forum.philosophynow.org/viewtopic.php?t=42185 3. Infanticide https://forum.philosophynow.org/viewtopic.php?p=707584#p7...

Incest Deterrence or Inbreeding Avoidance an inherent biological functions which is also one of the many moral element. The incest deterrence systems is a normative in all humans and justifiable via the sciences, it is scientifically objective [FSERC]; when inputted into a moral FSERC, it an objecti...

Morality/Ethics.. how about pure/applied, i.e. pure ethics [morality] / applied ethics. what is pure ethics [morality] are moral elements evolved and inherent within human nature. Applied ethics is how we apply [optimally] the inherent moral elements to fit into the varying conditions and circumsta...

:roll: You run out of counters and arguments? If you are a moral relativists, you MUST tolerate the above [that others can torture and kill babies for pleasure if and if that morally permitted within their culture] morally and will not do anything about it morally. For there to be a counter argumen...

I am a great fan of Kant though I do not agree with Kant totally. Kant is one of the Greatest Western Philosopher of ALL Times; thus for one to be familiar with Kant thoroughly one will have a lot to gain [not necessary agree] philosophically from Kant's philosophy. One significant plus from Kant is...

Take a look at "infanticide" and "sacrifice". You area joke. Every thing you do not agree with is deranged; people who disagree with you not normal. You lack any trace of self criticism; and are master of self deception. Why the diversion? I have already given 'proof' to establi...

Every culture or group will have its own objectives but they are sub-objective to the generic objective of the human species. For example there is the main objective of the digestive and nutrition system which is generic to ALL humans. However different culture or group would have its sub-objective...

Absolutely nothing is provable scientifically?? You are so lost with reality. This is the 35th time that we discuss exactly this point. There is no scientific proof. This is basic scientific epistemology 101. Chapter 1. Paragraph 1. https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/abs/philosophical-approach-to...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_realism I subscribe to mathematical realism but I have generally no opinion about the realism of abstractions other than the mathematical ones. It really depends on what it is about. As such the above can be studied within Physics and the other sciences; ...

What? I'm a pathological liar. And Kant's distinction between noumena and phenomena is 'entirely consistent with both modern science and modern psychology'. And I don't want to admit that I exist. Wtf are you talking about? Frankly, if this is what you've got, do one. Not interested. Still more of ...

Claim: If there were no humans, there would have been and be no universe. Nonsense. Strawman as usual. You should counter my full argument instead of merely the conclusion. You are relying on your premise which is illusory to distort my b]human-based FSERC[/b] premises. My argument proper is this; ...

Yes. And is that the ONLY basis of your moral objectivism? :D :D :D :D Yes??? tortured and killed for pleasure?? show me the links to the evidence. Even if there is, normal human sense will indicate that is due to a perversion. Take a look at "infanticide" and "sacrifice". You a...

From a physicalist perspective, even abstract concepts such as mathematics, morality, consciousness, intentionality, and meaning are considered physical entities, although they may consist of a large ontological object and a causally complex structure. Outside of philosophy, physicalism can also re...
