Rejection of evolution correlates with racism

That's not what I asked. I asked you to link to the post where the topic was changed.

If any given act by God must be deemed morally correct, then would it be morally correct for you to perform that act if commanded by God? And we'll assume for the purpose of the question that you'd be in no doubt that He had given you the command. Extra points will be awarded if reasons for the answer are supplied.

I'm pretty sure any two-bit philosopher or better could tell the difference. How come you can't?

Authoritarianism and nationalism. Got some serious correlations there. (I've yet to meet a philosophy worth 2 bits.)

Stonewall, Bungle Bear, stonewall. It's what you're apparently best at.


I don't think I implied that. But continue on with the fallacy of "poisoning the waters" if you feel you must. At least we can all see that you're enjoying yourself in doing so.

If that's what you think after reading your posts then you're demonstrably not so good at English:

You've been keeping up with my epistemological identity all along and everywhere I've said something on CF, right?

Essentially, you'd do it for the sake of honesty and transparency. That's just part of leaning in the direction of an epistemology that has even the thinnest hints of virtue. Or do you not care about honesty and transparency?

So let's stop and move on.

As I read that post it says

would it be morally correct for you to perform that act if commanded by God?

Please point to the part where it says "Christians are killing because God told them to".

Indeed I did. I'm still waiting.

If you don't understand how the post you quoted doesn't say what you think it says then we have nothing left to discuss.

That sounds like a hasty generalization, HB. Just say'n!

As for philosophy, thanks for sharing yours.

Like most of your posts, I'm at a loss to see which thing you are going to try and pin on me.

As for philosophy, I try not to give any credence to unevidenced things. I like evidence.

Yes, and evidence is subject to either interpretation or further philosophical implications, sometimes both.

For instance, the evidence that fission works ...

I'm not sure what mushrooms have to do with fission. I could spend some time explaining fission to you and digging for the documented evidence for it in the primary literature, but I have better things to do. (Personally, I learned about fission 43 years ago after TMI. The basics do not require more than a 10-year-old intellect.

Since the 20th century what mass casualty event has been carried out by Christians? If you are going to say Hitler was a Christian there is no need to respond

Dunno why you bring that up. I never mentioned Christians doing anything. I asked if it would be fine if God mandated such acts. He’s done so before: would it be fine today?

It’s either fine or it isn’t. If you don’t want to answer to that’s okay.

Do I get to fly around the building once per day for six days, then seven times the seventh?

If you like. But would it be fine to do so if God said every man woman and child in the building was evil and beyond redemption?

 

[Larniavc]

I'm still curious who mandates it when atheists murder people?

The murderer does. That seems obvious.

You asked if I was willing to learn.

And I apologize for any misunderstanding if you thought I meant learn abiogenesis from me -- I certainly am not qualified to teach it.

You hold me to the highest standards but there is no accountability at all for you.

You're a Christian, are you not?
You should already be holding yourself to the highest standards regardless of what others do.

Whose example does an atheist follow?

You'd have to ask an Atheist. I suspect that if you ask fifty, you'll get fifty different answers.

Nor if you exclude wars.

No. I don't know how that happened
