Zone1 One Truth: Should Society Maintain a Moral Compass?

[ding]

There is no anarchist society unless you want to start re-defining the meaning of a society which would be a truly Marxist thing to do.

Yes, but when society breaks down, there will be no moral compass and it will be anarchy.

So you've done opium?

Didn't need to to see what you were trying to do.

How do you know that the natural fundamental forces of the universe didn't create life without any external (supernatural) assist?

Because of the improbability. How do you know it didn't?

How do you know that the natural fundamental forces of the universe didn't create life without any external (supernatural) assist?

Because there is no way life evolved from where there was no life. Please tell us what these 'natural fundamental forces' are. So far no one has been able to create life from 'natural fundamental forces' or whatever, lightning? primordial pool? come on, show us how a living cell with thousands of organelles is an accident.

What will you say when he asks why not?

It doesn't make you happier, just clear-headed.

Have you ever heard of the happiness advantage? Because according to the science, my faith - which does make me happy - makes me 33% better than your neutral state clear headedness. Does 33% sound like alot? If I were 33% better than you at something, would that be noticable?

What will you say when he asks why not?

I'll know he is a certifiable loon.

 

[ding]

Why not what?

Why is there no way life evolved from where there was no life?

Why is there no way life evolved from where there was no life?

Because it never has and all attempts have failed. We can splice genes, take parts of genes and make something close to life however it all requires already existing life. You can't just take elements and throw them together and expect to create life no matter how long you tell yourself it would take.

Look at one living cell, it has thousands of organelles programmed to do certain things. DNA is like a code, RNA can assemble codes, etc. Also these elements don't survive long enough for us to make life so the 'billions years' explanation is a non starter.

It's fair to say we have never seen it. It's not fair to say it's never happened. In fact, we know it did most likely happen. The question was did it receive an unnatural assist from existence itself. And to answer that I say it did because of the improbability of life making the leap from inanimate matter.

 

[ding]

It is just how I was raised and have come to be.

Because it couldn't possibly be that we are hardwired for virtue because virtue is an artifact of intelligence because virtue is an extant attribute of existence and that that is why our reality is imbibed with virtue when existence created our reality.
