Trump's leadership team
FireChan replied to Benjamin Franklin's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I did not. I just showed you that if you are born without the ability to empathize, eventually learning how to is developmental. See my earlier post that says exactly that. You tried to tell me that an inability to empathize is a cultural and social construct. I proved you wrong. Unless you'd like to point out which cultural and social practices lead to the inability for a baby to realize it's not the only person on the Earth while its in the womb? I defined morality and its distinction form legality. Would it help if I took my earlier post and pieced it together for you? "Your own personal system of values and principles of conduct with the distinction between right and wrong." Let me know where Hammurabi's code dictated what was "right" versus "wrong" instead of "allowed" and "not allowed." You conflated morality and legality. They are not the same. -

It doesn't. I assume you'd be able educate yourself if I pointed you in the right direction. Biologically normal children fail that test before the age of 4. That and developmental processes are at least partially affected by biological ones. It's multifactorial. Do you need a link to lead poisoning too? I defined morality and it's distinction from legality. Your attempts to drag me down your rabbit hole to evade from the fact that they are fundamentally different concepts are futile. -

A particular system of values and principles of conduct with the distinction between right and wrong. Legality defines what is permissive, not what is right. -

It's biological. Babies are born without the concept of empathy. They only learn it through development. -

Probably because anyone with a brain knows that legality does not equal morality. Moron. -

With the brain power on PPP, we'll be posting "what difference, at this point, does it make?" within 2 pages. That's human psychology. And something worth investigating. -

I think your one post was ambigious enough to be twisted the other way. I will say, there are genuine concerns about your position in relation to the intrinsic value of a human life. You speak of these "moral inferiors" as though they are children or animals. -

Okay. I appreciate the legitimate response. Seriously. -
I mean, if we only won 1 of 4 we would've gotten Cam. You know, the guy who set rookie QB records, won MVP and went to a Super Bowl? We guaranteed not getting Cam and Luck by not having the #1 overall pick. We guaranteed not getting the highest ranked defensive player in the 2011 draft by not getting #2. If you get #1, you can pick anybody. You can't "miss out" on guys. If you draft a bust, it's because your player evaluation sucks, not because some other team got the player you really wanted. It makes thing simple.

Okay, so let me see if I'm following you here. Cultures evolve at different rates, but there's a universal morality that we will eventually all reach. Let's define that as a singularity. What do you do when you've reached that point or close to it, and there's a culture that hasn't? It's not their fault, right? They just haven't evolved. -

I told him. He won't listen. Oh no, this is where you define your beliefs. I'm not on trial here. -
Most? Go through all 14 and tell me that the offense did great in 7 of them. How is the defense getting a pass? Rex Ryan got fired. Do we need to cut the entire D? I love the irony of you blaming the defense every step of the way now when you argued for 2 years about Rex was getting it right. Why should I take anything you say seriously?

What's your explanation for all the hate, murder, rape, beheadings etc etc etc if we've all evolved moral higher reasoning? -

Then how do "people know what is moral?"
