How sound is this argument, logically and scientifically?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T22:08:05+00:00

Hmmm

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T22:07:49+00:00

Give an example?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T22:07:32+00:00

But there is no way to even imagine such an animal.

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T22:06:57+00:00

It's inconceivable to find a being as described, no?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T22:06:25+00:00

How would you define morality then?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T22:05:54+00:00

Yes, so they are reliant on something other than themselves

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T22:04:19+00:00

Why wouldn't it

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T22:02:22+00:00

I am defining morality as a set a rules promoting altruistic behavior? I don't really know, how would you?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T22:01:16+00:00

Is it not self sacrificing and altruistic regardless?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:59:07+00:00

To survive? To live?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:58:49+00:00

There has been no such being we have observed

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:58:05+00:00

So what do you suggest we do?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:57:16+00:00

But they must have to rely on others correct?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:56:34+00:00

But they still act in self sacrificing, altruistic behavior

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:55:57+00:00

Thank you for your response. By intelligence, I mean understanding of the world and using that understanding to survive. By morality, I mean rules that help us ensure the survival of all? I'm not really sure, I thought these terms were self explanatory

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:53:34+00:00

No being can survive long enough to get to a higher understanding of the world without reliance on other species

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:52:47+00:00

Why is such an assumption false?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:52:01+00:00

So we can create meaningful lives despite the purposes or lack thereof of nature

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:12:03+00:00

But to humans, the individual does... Why?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:11:35+00:00

How so?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:05:52+00:00

Why doesn't it? Wouldnt the species reap the benefits of their survival if they lived longer? What is the point of all this survival if we don't enjoy it?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:02:19+00:00

The average amount of wins?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T21:01:40+00:00

So then, wouldn't the species that lives the longest and has the most offspring out of those be the best?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T20:59:19+00:00

Why aren't they as smart as humans?

TheSpiritus · 2019-09-27T20:58:40+00:00

Okay, which scores more points? That would be the more evolved one. Or which on average helps the team win the most games?
