@ElectricDire @traeshark Literally not the same thing. Completely not, actually.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark same thing

if u need the threat of eternal damnation to be a good person i think that says more about you

@SaItmaker @traeshark I did not get an answer to my question, actually. It’s simply not the case that every wester atheists was raised with the golden rule at complete random lol. You know your entire moral framework is encoded with Christian ethics. It’s ok, you admit it without being Christian.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark You already got an answer to your question but that's not enough to you because it pokes a hole in your theory so you're just going to keep moving the goalpost until the other party gets tired so you can declare yourself the victor because your entire argument is fickle

@pineapplekit @traeshark You keep implying that these things are human universals when they’re not! All you have to do is leave your Christian-influenced culture to one that doesn’t have that influence and we can watch a speedrun of how NOT universal these ethics and principles actually are.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark No, it’s from being a human with a brain. Humans exist as a species because we take care of each other and try to ease suffering. It’s only that the people that got in power are the people that for some reason are missing that piece, and they’ve convinced us selfishness is normal

@SaItmaker @legalZA0 @traeshark You shouldn’t need retrospective reasoning to map out your moral compass unless you are literally just following a trend of the week.

@legalZA0 @traeshark @InsaneFBposts Notice how they said "and how I feel in retrospect" you fucking illiterate moron lol if god told you to kill 50 infant babies would you do it?

@TheatreSpoonie It’s progressive to keep men out of women’s spaces, yes.

The fact that anti trans people see themselves as left wing and progressive...

@HwoodHullKogan @traeshark And yet most people in the west attribute those things to Christianity because Christianity made them central to daily life. These are not human universals; most religions and ideologies do NOT adhere to these principles you think are you universal.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark Western atheists don’t ‘borrow’ Christian ethics — Christianity borrowed most of its ethics from older human cultures. Morality isn’t Christian or atheist; it’s human.

@TerCayle @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark The ones atheists adhere to? Christians.

@InsaneFBposts @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark Who wrote these guiding principles?

@Devisidev @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark That’s literally a hallmark of Christian ethics and morality. You are person #20 in this thread who thinks the shit they were raised with just randomly culminated the way it did. No dude. You were raised that that way because it’s central to your very Christian-influence culture.

@InsaneFBposts @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark I was raised that way, with those beliefs, because I was taught to believe in kindness above all else, to those who agree with me, and to those who don't. That's not christian- that's called not being an asshole.

@GergleBipper @traeshark lol you definitely wrote that out of pure rage and not because you were being funny. Don’t try to backtrack now that you look fucking stupid.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark Big words for a fella who can’t tell I wrote the Asshole tweet because it’s funny and am fucking with him

@uttersoap @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark You were already losing those cells before you entered this fray.

@InsaneFBposts @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark im losing braincells while trying to comprehend this conversation what is this bullshit

@KiwizVictim @traeshark But there are plenty of circumstance where it’s reasonable and even necessary to “cause harm to others.” For example the crusades were actually a great idea and we should do that again at a much larger scale.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark and the reason I want to minimize harm isnt because of religion either its because I personally dislike being harmed so its not logical to do that to others. Additionally harming others also usually results in harm to yourself; which isnt a religious karmic notion either its fact

@KindaSiIIy @Beyond_Polygons @alejo_fossati @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark No one here claimed that Christianity created the golden rule. The claim is that Christianity makes the golden rule a central feature of how to move through the world and keep oneself grounded.

@InsaneFBposts @Beyond_Polygons @alejo_fossati @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark Problem there is the golden rule is the concept of empathy, which seeing how it can be observed in infants 9 - 18 months old, is something innately “human”. Christianity simply “picked it up” from surrounding society and incorporated it into itself. It did not create it.

@pineapplekit @traeshark Your sense of how empathy is and should be applied is directly downstream from being born and raised in a culture submerged in Christian ethics.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark Empathy bro. What’s right is what causes the least amount of suffering

@KiwizVictim @traeshark Well, that’s hilarious logic because nothing is absolute so nothing is a reasonable reference point lol be fucking for real for like two seconds please

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark there might be notions of caring for them but they aren't absolute which means they cant stand as a reference point for morality. If I state "you shouldn't punch pregnant teenagers" and then order someone to punch a pregnant teenager then no one would care about my statement

@cturnbull1968 It’s ok for ICE to shoot people who try to kill them. It’s not ok for retarded savages who should’ve been executed ages ago to stab a girl in the neck because she’s white. See the difference?

Shut the fuck up you disingenuous weasel dick. You didn’t give one shit about that poor girl. You would have been delighted if ICE had tased her, punched her in the face and then locked her up in one of the many privately owned concentration camps funded by our tax dollars.

@KiwizVictim @traeshark The only way you can think Christianity doesn’t care about babies relative to other religions is if you’re ignorant or being bad faith. Like, it’s not even close.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark I dont think Christianity cares much for the protection of babies and frankly you can use another example instead of a child, the immorality doesnt come because its a child. I only referenced babies because they have no religious values. If you take someone from a remote island -

@johnanonle @traeshark “Why do all the people in my hood/city/state/nation/region share the same general sense of morality? I must be completely random and not culture-bound.”

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark "Would I want to be treated this way?"

@TerCayle @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark Any culture/nation whose guiding principles are derived from Christianity and Greco-Roman heritage.

@InsaneFBposts @Aziedownunder @GergleBipper @traeshark Where do you define the west?

@HwoodHullKogan @traeshark So you agree that western atheists rely on Christian ethics and have their moral compass derived from Christianity. Cool.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark No, hence why I said "it shifts over time AS WELL AS IN DIFFERENT NATIONS."

@GergleBipper @traeshark I suppose a retard like you would consider a 50-word post to be a think piece lmao Again, your life experiences have been a gestalt of being submerged in a culture with people who share your ethics! Ethics which were largely or even mostly derived from Christianity.

@InsaneFBposts @traeshark I’m morally driven by my life experiences if you stop typing think peices because of your superiority complex people might like you!!
