@prolifefrenchie I did. Causes harm

[Matt’s Philosophy @MattsPhilosophy]

@ShitpostRock It is morally wrong to cause suffering to yourself or others without a just cause. Giving yourself, even the possibility, a disease is causing yourself harm

@Sugzza Certain questions have a false basis, this makes the question itself incoherent. “Do your wife know you are gay” is incoherent if you are not gay because it assumes and proposes it to be true

[Matt’s Philosophy @MattsPhilosophy]

Harm is not objectively wrong. Harming someone or something to save yourself or someone else is sometimes justified. Saying "Why is harm wrong?" presupposes that it IS wrong

[Darwin to Jesus @darwintojesus]

Why is harm wrong?

Everytime I ask this question to an atheist I get a description of what “harm” is, as if that solves the problem.

To see why it doesn’t, imagine I said “fitness is wrong” and you say “why?”

I respond “well, fitness is having the ability to work out for long periods without fatigue.”

Cool… I know what fitness is… I asked why is it wrong. Explaining what you mean by “fitness” in no way explains or justifies why “fitness is wrong.”

Or imagine I say spiders are bad. When you ask me why, I tell you what a spider is…. It’s an insect with eight legs that makes webs and catches flies.

Do you see the problem?

@BraedenSorbo “The I hate orange party actually buys a ton of oranges!”

“So you are saying buying oranges is wrong and something to be ashamed of?”

@Tsar_Martyr @Jei_Cos Morality does exist. Its just not objective

[Matt’s Philosophy @MattsPhilosophy]

@Tsar_Martyr We dont. I hold a very brute view of the universe that many others find uncomfortable

[Matt’s Philosophy @MattsPhilosophy]

@Tsar_Martyr What claim

[Matt’s Philosophy @MattsPhilosophy]

@i_am_non_a @Shonenannime @dqveed That makes no sense
