Philosophy 201 Guidelines
Cogito ergo sum
Here in the Philosophy forum we will talk about all the "why" questions. We'll have conversations about the way in which philosophy and theology and religion interact with each other. Metaphysics, ontology, origins, truth? They're all fair game so jump right in and have some fun! But remember...play nice!

So again moral progress is merely that which you happen to agree with.Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

Originally posted by seer View PostRight so moral progress depends, in the end, on what you personally prefer. The word hubris comes to mind...
Not sure what it has to do with hubris, though...

Originally posted by JimL View PostYou are answering a question with a question, seer. Dissent, in and of itself is not a moral crime. Dissenters, i.e. moral law breakers, are punished in accordance with their specific crimes. So you need to be specific as to exactly what moral crimes you are talking about. For instance, if you murder someone, then that is the breaking of a moral/legal law in every society as far as I know. So, if you are asking me why it would be immoral to punish someone in accordance to the moral law they've broken, the answer is that it wouldn't be. That's how the law works.
