Origin of God's Morality.

[civilwarbuff]

At what point did you become confused that I as speaking about anything other than society? You knew damn well I wasn't talking about a tea and crumpets group.

Then maybe you should say what you mean rather than hoping everyone will interpret what you really meant to say.....

 

[Ana the Ist]

You brought up social groups setting moral standards...I just mentioned a social group with their own moral standards....maybe takes a little more than social groups, you think?

I honestly don't see what the confusion is about...

Clearly, your Short North Posse had its own morals....and they conflicted with those of the larger social group (the U.S., state of Ohio). That conflict is being resolved in court.

Maybe you should read what started it off.....
From HitchSlap:

Morals are derived from social groups. There is no reason to believe otherwise, and all available evidence suggests this so.

From HitchSlap:

I did...I don't see how your "example" contradicts what he stated.

 

[HitchSlap]

You stated "social group" not society.....be truthful here....

Yes, in the way that social anthropologists use the term.

 

[HitchSlap]

What do you appeal to in order to adjudicate between two opposing social group's views?

Maximal well being.

 

[HitchSlap]

Are you trying to make me believe that social group is the same as society?

Society is a system of usages and procedures of authority and mutual aid of many groupings and divisions, of controls of human behavior and liberties.
Same link as before.

Why are you attempting to muddy the water, here?

Yes, in the way that social anthropologists use the term.

Now we are switching the definitions are we?

 

[HitchSlap]

I was using established academic terms, it's not my fault, nor my concern, if you're not up to speed.

 

[Oncedeceived]

Why are you attempting to muddy the water, here?

There is more problems than muddy water, there seems to be a whirlpool going on.

 

[HitchSlap]

Now we are switching the definitions are we?

Not even once.

 

[HitchSlap]

There is more problems than muddy water, there seems to be a whirlpool going on.

This tends to happen once you get involved.

 

[civilwarbuff]

Yes, in the way that social anthropologists use the term.

Bailing out?.....

 

[civilwarbuff]

I did...I don't see how your "example" contradicts what he stated.

not surprising.....

 

[civilwarbuff]

Why are you attempting to muddy the water, here?

He is just trying to clear the mud you threw in.....

 

[civilwarbuff]

I was using established academic terms, it's not my fault, nor my concern, if you're not up to speed.

It is not my fault nor my concern if you don't say what you mean.....

 

[HitchSlap]

It is not my fault nor my concern if you don't say what you mean.....

Lucky for you, I was "as clear as an unmuddied lake,sir."

 

[Oncedeceived]

Bailing out?.....

No, he will just put the blame on me or someone else.

 

[Ana the Ist]

not surprising.....

Lol because it doesn't contradict what he posted.

 

[HitchSlap]

No, he will just put the blame on me or someone else.

Blame for what?
We both agree murder is wrong. We both agree we prefer to live with others who feel this way also. We both agree that there should be consequences for those who murder. In fact we feel so strongly about this, we've actually made this to be unlawful to murder. Furthermore, we have decided to guarantee these rights and protections, so as not to be arbitrarily applied.
Agree so far?
