@RavnReborn@pimomormon All is good. I think most people are not aware of it or have the wrong idea of it. But to me, it makes the most sense. I find it cool that you're a Norse pagan. I don't see that too often. Keep seeking your truth. Cheers!
@RavnReborn@pimomormon That human life is sacred and we owe a duty to each other higher than our own self-interest. You want to throw away the universal anchor and pretend the ship won't drift.
@RavnReborn@pimomormon When you dismiss it all as just 'myths we can replace with raw intellect,' you're ignoring that these diverse traditions all arrived at the exact same cosmic bedrock (2/3)
@RavnReborn@pimomormon You still haven't answered for your extreme: without that anchor, why do human rights matter at all? Why does a life tethered to nothingness matter?
@RavnReborn@pimomormon You're deflecting because you don't want to admit that your extreme leads to absolute nihilism.
Who decides the line? History and human survival do. The sacred frameworks that stood the test of time didn't survive by accident.
@RavnReborn@pimomormon But if we play your game and take a godless self-interest-driven worldview to its logical extreme. There is no sacred anchor and objective morality doesn't exist. At that extreme, human rights are just a fiction we made up. Life is meaningless. You might even believe this
@RavnReborn@pimomormon That’s a classic fallacy of extremes. It's like looking at a beautifully engineered bridge and saying, "Well, if we put 500 million tons of weight on it, it will collapse, so the design is invalid." That's like saying water is evil because we drown in it.
@CouchDewd@pimomormon True, we wouldn't even have Christmas without religion.
You’re tracking with my point better than the others. I’m less interested in debating theology here than I am in pointing out a historical reality. The sacred framework is an evolutionary truth.
