Group Selection: Groups with cooperative, moral members tend to survive and thrive better, promoting the evolution of moral behavior.
Ethical Frameworks: Philosophical doctrines like Kant’s categorical imperative or utilitarianism guide moral actions through reasoned principles.
These are flat-out wrong. Beyond th…[Read more]

@regthefronkeyfarmer – I want to mention the Catholic mother and baby homes scandal in my book. I think the Catholic Church in Ireland was a classic example of where patriarchy has taken advantage of an existing power structure. In this case, it’s taken over the Irish Catholic Church entirely. That’s been its downfall, in addition to the kiddie…[Read more]

Simon is there anything peculiar about patriarchy? Or is it simply the case that wherever power resides abuse occurs?
-
Patriarchy is a system of domination and control that is always looking for a host (according to the theory). So it’s not a system of abuse, but it encourages abuse. Also there’s paedophilia, always looking for opportunities for abuse. So the second has piggy-backed on the first in my opinion.

@regthefronkeyfarmer, could you please ask it what is the foundation of morality? I wager it will mention human flourishing and religion, and say that the question isn’t settled. I think it will also mention the classical ethical theories like utilitarianism and deontology (what is their foundation?).

Or do you rather want to keep your live a secret because of its sinning character?
I can guarantee you I have never once sinned.
You agree, Brother @regthefronkeyfarmer?
This is my favourite bit. I think someone’s made a new friend.

@Johan, if your god exists on FB or in some Metaverse, I am happy for you. But I have no interest in your bus as all the wheels seem to have fallen off it.
I agree brother. I am the Mother of God sending her children off to school, but the bus needs no wheels because God is the bus, the journey, and…

Why is it do you think that the words of God would have needed to be “selected” by a council?
Well said, BR!
I agree, Brother. The Words of God creates Life. As is seen in Genesis. I used them to create myself to be a Mother of God’s Kids and are using them now to Create my Family. As is seen on Faceboo…[Read more]

I suppose psychosis is always going to find an expression. I wonder whether borderline psychosis might not manifest without the fertile territory religion furnishes its host. Talk about immersed in horse shit there is seemingly endless mythology and opportunity to superimpose oneself in the fiction.

Hey Reg, @regthefronkeyfarmer,
I don’t know Perkins personally, but I’m no supporter. As I said in another post, it’s really bad when “evangelical types” syncretistically blend nationalism with theology.
You also talked about Catholics meeting in their church buildings and holding “Mass”, denying the reality of the COVID-19 Coronavirus. M…[Read more]

Greetings Reg, @regthefronkeyfarmer, Yes – I’m human!
You said, “…my main thing is debating with theists of all or any Faiths.” Interesting. Hey, I’m game. Is there a thread you want to start here on the AtheistZone.com, or do you want to do this via email one-on-one? Either way, I’m game. I’m confident I would learn something and who k…[Read more]

I have a paper on “Finnish philosophers” that talks about Westermarck, I’ll give it another look. I’ve encountered him in talking about anthropology.

Around when Sarah Palin was running for VP with McCain and pushing the idea that Obama would create Death Panels that would decide who should live or die as a result of his promised health care reforms, I made a bumper sticker: Palin/Schiavo 2008.
Waitasec, @RegTheFronkeyFarmer, that Schiavo link goes to a Paula White article.

@Regthefronkeyfarmer If you listen to what he actually says in regards to those things it is not the same as his stupid punk ass followers.

When you say you are confused about what you believe are you talking about belief in God or with something broader that involves trusting specific people and what they say?
honestly all of the above. Just everything. A paper and pen is a good idea. Right now I don’t know who to trust.

@regthefronkeyfarmer – how does religion warp otherwise good people into doing bad things? Maybe it’s false to call people good or bad, since there’s probably a bit of good and bad, or light and dark, in all of us.
I think that the big fault of religion is that it gives people reasons to judge, exclude, and hate others.
Apart from this, it…[Read more]

I think he has a description of what God would be like if He existed, and corresponds this description to real-world ideas. So, the “follower” of Peterson is free to choose either way.
@regthefronkeyfarmer – have you got examples of his negative statements about atheists? I haven’t heard any of these.
