Jul 26, 2023 at 7:55 | comment | added | armand | Are you asking what arguments there are to not do the moral thing in a given moral framework? I'm afraid it's not a question that makes sense. If a moral framework gives you arguments to ignore its own conclusion, it's a self contradictory moral framework ("A is the most moral action in your situation, but here is the argument why you should prefer not-A, and therefore not-A is the most moral action") | |

Jul 26, 2023 at 1:58 | comment | added | user66760 | i didn't mention blaming anyone! i mean like @Rushi "take responsibility: be good" not "you have been bad: i should be bad too" | |
Jul 26, 2023 at 1:57 | comment | added | Rushi | You can't have sin hell and all that good stuff without a mechanism of blame. The modern secular Christians are more christian than the old fashioned ones. As Douglas Murray points out, in the classic model there at least can be redemption. The modern variant: one strike You're Out — Cancel culture. The physicality may not be as brutal as the Stake. The intent is the same — reifying our propensity to blame, to hate as Good n Evil. In short if you believe in good n evil you're christian. Actually Christ taught forgive over blame. The secular Christians sadly keep only the blame 😟 | |
Jul 26, 2023 at 1:52 | comment | added | user66760 | i don't think so @Rushi i don't believe in God and i don't think Christ made the right decisions by being crucified. indeed, i am offended by being called christian. there are things to learn from christ, you got me there at least | |
Jul 26, 2023 at 1:51 | comment | added | Rushi | Yeah ... you're christian. | |
Jul 26, 2023 at 1:49 | comment | added | user66760 | i can't take it very seriously, determinism, and probably no those grounds @Rushi not on a personal level. maybe animals can act without caring about how they are acting at all. i differ from nietzsche in that respect: i don't think instinct is all that | |
Jul 26, 2023 at 1:29 | comment | added | user66760 | i might well agree with that, even-though i was being futural about it @Rushi | |
Jul 26, 2023 at 1:26 | comment | added | Rushi | Responsibility is the obverse side of freewill. If the universe is 100% predetermined there's no such of either. [ Do note 100% ≠ 99% not even 99.99%] | |
