Oddbean new post about login | logout You are not all knowing, so there's no way to know that GOD doesn't exist. But all logic shows this is all a creation, by a creator.
To think this level of ingenious is random is quite absurd
Agreed. Without GOD, there is no such thing as human rights.
You might find St. Anselm's ontological argument for the existence of God to be an interesting read.
nah theres lots of different ways to be a human being and lots of them don't agree on what "human rights" are. most of the world doesnt agree with your perception of God and doesnt care. so this is just "my brand is the best brand" rights are agreements we have with each other because they make our lives better. they don't live some special place, they aren't consecrated by divine authority. its up to us if we're going to assert them.
Rights are agreements? There is a whole country that was founded on this statement being false. If rights are agreements, then they can be eliminated from you if one party decides to disagree.
well they have to pass a constitutional amendment first but otherwise, yeah. that's correct. there is a list of legal agreements called the Bill of Rights. they aren't Divine, they're written by men on a piece of paper and people can change them if they want to.
The bill of rights did not grant rights. Read it again.
I didn't say anywhere that it did.
Yes you did. You suggested the bill of rights is a legal agreement that somehow agrees on what rights humans should have. Do the rights exist if this agreement does not exist?
I didn't but whatever. Obviously they no longer exist legally. but whether they exist legally or not, its up to the people to *exercise them. if they aren't doing that it doesn't much matter what is written down. you have no rights except those you assert and defend.
So the handicapped have no rights? Ehat about children? Your philosophy sounds evil. Besides, you seen to have abandoned your stance that rights only exist when parties agree. Not a position to listen to until you've got a better foundation.
Nah Rights are what every human is born with. America's paperwork only said that the country is to align with them. 🤩😂😂😂😂
most humans dont agree with Americas paperwork.
You're not focused lol. You're talking about irrelevance.
Without a creator, humans are all just some accident. Meaningless, void of rights, or even of a trustworthy mind.
Nobody is born without parent though. 🤔
You say the world doesn't agree and doesn't care. Maybe those are your feelings bleeding through. Nothing didn't explode into everything.
Maybe not, but creations geneis problem doesn’t just go away with a timeless creator to blame on though.
maybe time happened because it could which is an organic bitch really, since contrary to the binary, we don’t know who flipped our switch to turn time on. Keep the faith.
^Better yet, who or what. Also, fishing for uncertainty is futile, since difficult to refute something or someone done did, creating an unknown, but not uncertain. Does it matter what or who is responsible for the universe?! How does this wild good chase change anything?!
Although to really understand the mindfuck is trying to grasp and find logical superimposition of how timeless became time. This one does something to the mind when trying to imagine the timeless. No matter how hard you try, you find yourself in time.
