Domoman soaks himself in the oily hay | Quote |
“The mentality Murray describes is true, because . . .” if life is only chemicals simply activating and then deactivating, then life serves no true purpose. If this is all there is, whatever enjoyment we might get out of life, whether by helping the poor or molesting little children, is all pointless. And yes, you did read that right. I believe that, if atheism is true, then whether you get enjoyment out of, say, giving money to the poor, or raping somebody, both actions are of equal worthlessness and thus have no moral value. In fact, I believe that if atheism is true, then nothing matters at all and there can be no such thing as morals. All life, all human beings, will end in death, so everything is equal to just that: death. So all actions equal the same thing. There is no better, or higher way of life. Perhaps there is a way that prolongs life (the things that most consider “good”), but death is still inevitable, so nothing matters. So, “good” = death, and “bad” = death. You might as well do what you want, whether its deemed by society to be “good” or “bad”. This of course, does ultimately lead to the conclusion that such actions, such as those of Hitler, were not really bad or good, they simply just were. They were amoral.
And yes, I absolutely believe, and have felt myself, that when life is looked upon as a mere fluke or accident, just about all of my joy is literally sucked away. So, if those Europeans happen to find themselves privileged, as far as their general life goes, but can find no justification for existing in the first place (that is, they view life as the result of an accident), I can surely see how they are not satisfied.
Nihilism is lame. lol

god it feels so good to soak it in some oily hay. but then comes some smart aleck and points out his nakedness, breaking the simple rule handed out from on high "start your comments with the following canard statement [snip wanking]. Obviously, what you write after “because” will the only interesting part of your comment."

Domoman, by your reasoning, a good person who is moral and cares, cannot be an atheist, and is actually lying if they say that they are. Is this what you think?

.. or does it mean that if you lost your faith, you think that you’d lose your morals, and act completely differently?

roflmao. here comes the sad cunt Clive | Quote | | Barry, would you like me to delete every comment that doesn’t start with your introductory directive? |
Barry [sotto voce] You'd have to stop doing what you are doing in order to do that, Clive. Just shut up and don't stop.
David Kellogg | Quote | | That would include deleting yourself, Clive. |
