Atheism is a false religion.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad Yes so you don't actually know anything for certain therefore you don't know what you are talking about. Now, you are thinking like a dog, that's why you need to repent and believe the good news so you can think properly.

@Ieiruu @sola_chad Why does morality and rationality need to be 'grounded'? And saying 'God did it' is not 'grounding' them, either. That's hand waving. 'blind physical processes' Yes, neurons don't have eyes. But our actions in reality are not blind. Quite the opposite.

The pope needs to read a Bible. The death penalty is 100 percent biblical.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad Prove it.

@Ieiruu @sola_chad He didn't fulfill a single Messianic Prophecy from the OT. Hence why he was rejected by the Jews (i.e. those who knew the Old Testament). This is why the New Testament authors had to invent new contexts for prophecy. Or take passages completely out of context.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad "That’s the default option" You made that up, you didn't prove it tho.

@Ieiruu @sola_chad We both use our brains. Our brains produce thoughts. I understand you don't like subjective morality. You've already made that very clear. But that's the default option. Until you can demonstrate an objective source.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad Your worldview is self-defeating. It fails to ground both morality and rationality. If your thoughts are just byproducts of blind physical processes, then you have no non-circular reason to trust them including the ones you use to defend your position. Atheism is nonsense

@sola_chad have other people survive, too. Because humans are a social species. A - primarily - cooperative species of ape. Our moral sense helped us to survive in the niche we evolved to occupy.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad chemical processes including the conclusion that anything is “wrong” at all.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad But then I can’t even have a fully intelligible conversation with you, because under that framework your reasoning is just brain chemistry reacting to stimuli. So there’s no way to know if what you’re concluding is actually true or just the result of faulty or biased chemical

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad So basically, rape is wrong in your worldview because evolution? That’s quite a story you’ve got. And morality is subjective anyway, then it’s not even grounded in anything objective it’s just preferences shaped by biology and social conditioning. Hence, i'm wasting my time.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad False.

@Ieiruu @sola_chad Christianity isn't true because Jesus wasn't the Messiah.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad "That is the default as human morality as far we can tell" Sounds pretty circular. Morality is subjective because it just is.

@Ieiruu @sola_chad That is the default, as human morality - as far as we can tell - exists only inside human minds. i.e. is subjective. You'd need to demonstrate an objective source. Which you cannot.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad And why do you value your well being? I'm just trying to get at the root of your reasoning.

@Ieiruu @sola_chad I am a human. I value my well being. Surely we can agree that life is preferable to death (in most cases). Health is preferable to sickness. Etc. I want to live in a world where I and other humans have value, and can live meaningful lives.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad But why is it wrong to reduce human well being?

@Ieiruu @sola_chad Because it reduces human well being. Obviously for the victim, but I would say for the rapist, too. The cost of raping someone far outweighs the benefits. I don't want to be raped. Therefore I don't want to live in a world where people are raped, or rape is acceptable behaviour.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad But why is it wrong according to you?

@Ieiruu @sola_chad One could, I wouldn't. Anyone who sincerely argues rape is good should be locked up in my view. Disagree?

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad Opinions changed*

@Ieiruu @sola_chad So our moral positions are the same as they were several thousand years ago? Nope. Woman have right now, and aren't viewed as property. We don't stone children to disobeying their parents. Slavery is generally considered to be ghastly. Much wider acceptance of LGBT. Etc. Etc.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad Evolution doesn't account for morality and you know it.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad Nonsense. So you telling me we evolved from fishes, all about the survival of the fetus and now we suddendly started to care about other people and have morals. This is a good fairy tale what you got here.

@Ieiruu @sola_chad Human morality has obviously changed and - I would say - improved over time. Our moral sense will continue to change. As will lion morality, or dolphin morality.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad Interesting, then I guess you could argue that rape is good since morality is subjective right?

@Ieiruu @sola_chad Yes, morality is subjective. Unless you can demonstrate an objective source. Which you cannot. Which is why human morality has developed over time. And will continue to develop. And Yahweh's actions in the Bible become more and more reprehensible with each passing year.

@ImmutableXY @sola_chad The Bible is true because Jesus said so. God exists and you suppress the truth in unrighteousness.

@Ieiruu @sola_chad Adorable claim. Any evidence that's true?
