Sylogism for Objective Morality: 1. Action presupposes reasons -> To act intentionally is to take oneself to have reasons for acting. 2. Reasons must be universalizable -> A reason counts as rational only if it could justify action for any relevantly similar agent, not merely because it is "my" preference. 3. Agency is the capacity to recognize and act on reasons -> Agents are beings capable of understanding and acting for reasons. This capacity exists in varying degrees, including developing or partial forms. 4. Agency requires objective conditions -> To act for reasons, agents require certain generic goods: Life, bodily integrity, minimal freedom, and cognitive functioning. Without these conditions, agency is impossible. 5. Therefore every agent must value these conditions because these goods are necessary for any action at all, every agent must regard them as necessary for their own agency. 6. Denying them to others is arbitrary -> If an agent claims these goods are necessary for themselves but not for others, the justification becomes identity-based ("because it’s me"), which is not a rationally generalizable reason. 7. Therefore rational agents must recognize the agency of others -> Consistency requires recognizing that the same conditions that justify protecting one's own agency apply to other agents and developing agents as well. 8. Violating those conditions without justification frustrates agency -> Actions like killing, coercion, or torture unjustifiably destroy the preconditions that make agency possible. 9. A norm is objective if denying it requires a performative contradiction -> If one must rely on the agency the norm protects in order to reject it, the norm holds independently of personal preference. Conclusion: Unjustified destruction or frustration of agency is objectively wrong, because any rational agent must recognize and preserve the conditions that make agency possible.

@blessedpeasant_ P1. Going to heaven is the greatest possibile outcome for a human-being. P2. All aborted babies are guaranteed to go to heaven C: Abortion guarantees the greatest possible outcome for human-beings.

Atheism's easygoing morality is a selling point for Democratic Socialism.

@GatorRob777 @ekkiet Thomas was based AF

@ekkiet "Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed." (John 20:29)

And all the proof in the world would not satisfy the atheist who is determined to deny God’s existence.

@ekkiet Bro I just want Jesus to stop by my house and have a conversation. But he won't... 🤷‍♂️

@Midgard_Walker Idk about transcendental, but the majority of philosophers are atheists, majority of atheist philosophers are moral realists.

The only thing they really have is an arsenal of embarrassing straw man memes. Most atheists don’t believe that transcendental objective morality exists.

@darwintojesus The irony of using AI for this xD

The Bible is too epic to be fiction.

@evandi13579b @darwintojesus I'm trying to read through it. It's either painfully boring or absolutely insane. No in-between.

@darwintojesus The Bible is bizarre and boring.

@Truth_matters20 Leviticus 21:9 [9] When the daughter of a priest profanes herself through prostitution, she profanes her father; she shall be burned to death.

@OrthoBroGeorg @antiochus1453 Virtues flow from the energy of reality. They are eternal. Understand the metaphysical priority. If that doesn't answer your question then you'll know how I feel.

@Tim0riginal @antiochus1453 The virtues flow from God's energies. They are eternal. Understand the metaphysical priority. Pretty basic. How do you justify ethics?

Atheists literally believe that God just arbitrarily decreed that x is moral and b is unmoral.

@ApoloJedi_ Ahh yes. All of humanity came together and unanimously agreed that Jesus should be executed. Just like how we all chose to eat the fruit.

God has communicated with humanity directly…and was crucified because humanity loved darkness rather than Light

@RevIsaacWirtz God has conscious thought? I thought he never changed.

@Tim0riginal A metaphysical entity; concepts don't have conscious thought. Though since the incarnation, God is physical too in the person of Jesus.

I don't think this is the win that the maker of this comic thought it was. It really is a problem that some people demand physical proof for something specifically described as metaphysical. And then when you cannot fulfil their illogical request they don't see it as user error.

@TheHistoryGuy07 Most Christians aren't serious.

Studying the Bible does not inherently lead someone to become an atheist. This is an atheist myth. Serious Christians never shy away from criticism & truly grapple with the Scriptures to know them well. Some of us welcome modern objections because we know they sharpen our faith.

@Krystlekathie @Templarpilled Apparently we're vessels of wrath made for destruction in order to make known the riches of his glory for the vessels of mercy.

@Templarpilled Atheist and those who consciously reject God are empty vessels. Lack creativity with no compass in life. No way to live🙂‍↔️

Christian morality is so universally internalized that it's become "the morality." Fish don't know they're in water.

@aquavitae96 @Willy881188 Question begging.

@Tim0riginal @Willy881188 Just the one. x.com/aquavitae96/st…

Atheists…

@Willy881188 @aquavitae96 "the god that exists is the god that exists" incredible stuff.

@Tim0riginal @aquavitae96 The only One that exists, the Creator of everything and everyone. GOD's name doesn't matter because on each of the quintillions of inhabited worlds in this universe He is called by a different name.

@Willy881188 @aquavitae96 Which god

@aquavitae96 GOD never kills.

@_____case @crusade4gospel @darwintojesus That 's the silver rule, and I actually think it's superior to the Golden rule.

@crusade4gospel @Tim0riginal @darwintojesus The Mahabharata of Hinduism is estimated to be conceived around 1000 BC and it states: "One should never do that to another which one regards as injurious to one's own self."

Why is it actually wrong to kill infants if atheism is true?

@ThePaddedMeowth Show me in the Bible where it says there's a difference between moral laws and ritual laws. I'll wait.

The ones who claim they know the Bible the best can’t distinguish between moral laws and ritual laws in the Torah? I’m shocked, I tell you, shocked!

@RevIsaacWirtz Notice how nowhere in the meme doesn't say that the scientists are purely atheists. Lol.

I'm not sure what world people think we live in where scientists are all atheists. They think so highly of themselves that they cannot comprehend that some of the greatest contributions to science in history were made by people who believed they were studying God's creation.
