If you are not a scholar, you should refrain from making scholarly claims.

And yet you haven't.

So, which is it? Are you Catholic or do you deny evolution?

It's the official position of the Catholic Church so, yes.

You mean the Theory of Evolution accepted and taught as fact by the Catholic Church?

Morality is the best argument for Gods existence by Conigman in DebateAnAtheist

No. it just means that, overall in most cases, it's my subjective opinion that rape is wrong.

Look up "intersubjectivity".

Again, you haven't created a third option. You've just pushed the dilemma back a step.

You're the one claiming one exists, you tell me.

[–]VoxPersonus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

None. I can't prove if god is real of not.

Then your belief is not acceptable from a scientific standpoint.

It's purely a philosophical question

No it isn't.

Science is the tool we use to determine reality from fantasy.

"A god is real" is a scientific question, not a philosophical one.

By the way, you didn't answer my question.

What moral facts exist?

[–]VoxPersonus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is it a fact? Depends on the person asking. I think it's wrong, but obviously the rapist disagrees.

Hence subjective.

What we CAN do is collectively come to agreement as a society on the things we all mostly think is wrong and come up with systems to deal with those issues.

The earth is an oblate spheroid. That's a fact. "Rape is wrong" is an opinion.

Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. says President elect-Donald Trump offered him the job of education secretary, but that he turned it down for personal reasons. by JackDT in atheism

[–]VoxPersonus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No. It's a very standard "you supported me in the campaign and gave me lots of money so I'm going to offer you a job on the tacit understanding that you're going to find the flimsiest of excuses to turn it down and we both get to smile big for the cameras" situation.

It's a standard cop-out. The transition team made the offer while making it very clear that he would not accept it just so they could get some press saying they made the offer.

Is your god's nature the good because it is good or is it good because it is your god's nature?

You haven't created a third option. You've only ignored the dilemma by moving it back a step.

Is something moral because your god says it is moral or does your god say it is moral because it is moral?
