You obviously won't acknowledge the existence of an objective moral standard for obvious reasons.

So what is this objective moral standard that cannot be rejected for obvious reasons?

Your subjective opinion, no doubt.

An objective moral standard means that some actions are always immoral no matter the circumstances.

For example, rape, incest, torturing an infant. etc

So you do not believe in the sanctity of human life?

Do you believe cannibalism - where killing the person against their will in order to eat them was not involved - was condemned by the Bible?

This for example:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uruguayan_Air_Force_Flight_571#Cannibalism

Was what happened in that case, in your view, according to your personal moral sensibilities/analysis (which you repeatedly refer to as "the objective moral standard"] morally wrong/"evil"?

Wow if you aren't certain that cannibalism is wrong it might be a good thing that Robbie skipped that meeting you wanted to set up with him. 😉

I believe it is wrong to kill another human being for the sole purpose of eating their flesh, because I believe in the sanctity of human life. Don't you?

What about the cannibalism scenario I cited? It doesn't involve murder.

I said I don't agree with killing another human being for the sole purpose of eating their flesh. Do you?


Amazing. Morally destitute people defending cannibalism, of all things. I never could have imagined I'd see that here, and all to somehow engineer an 'end-run' around the argument and to disagree with someone they deride for disagreeing with them. Unbelievable.

It would not surprise me if FMF came up and defended incest and rape so as to continue with his stubborn rejection of moral absolutes.

It's a discussion about morality. What is your moral and/or biblical objection to eating human flesh?

But we have discussed things like incest and rape in great detail so you know what my moral perspective is already. What makes you think/predict that I would defend them? It's as if you haven't read my posts.

If you are referring to me as "morally destitute", what makes you say that?
