Show me where you provided a reference except from the link to the DSM. I use the term citation and reference interchangeably in a colloquial setting, because I'm not writing a report nor am I reading one. However, they both refer to some source material.I provided a reference not a citation. Do you know the difference?
There is no such term. Cite it somewhere. Your assertions are pathetic, as you are.Wrong again. You have conflated anthropomorphism based empathy with empathy for the object itself. They have feelings for the human context projected on the object not the object itself.
Just linking a document tells me nothing. Tell me where in the document it's parallel with what you're saying, since you're the one that brought it up, or did you forget?
Jesus Christ. Show me that definition. Cite it. Assertions are a waste of time.empathy is universal otherwise it isn't empathy by definition.
Moral relativism isn't on a whim nor does it make anything an automatic moral code. Study the topic. This is the last time I'll say it.Wrong. I do not entertain moral relativism as a source of valid moral codes. I accept it as an explanation of farces called moral codes based on whims. Not every code of conduct is automatically a moral code. That is the difference.
If you've read my reply to We Never Know then you'd know I am not claiming moral relativism is "the only valid form of developing moral codes". It seems you're projecting whatever it is onto me. I try not to ridicule you but you make it too easy. You have no idea what you're talking about.You can not avoid going off-topic asserting points I never made as if I made them then whining when I tell you "no". I am ridiculing you as you refuse to take my "No" seriously instead you entertain your fantasy. You are projecting moral relativism as if the only valid form of developing moral codes rather than an explanation of farces. Just because you accept those ideas does not mean I do nor have to.
I don't speak gobbledegook, sorry.I gave an example of a lack of empathy as empathy is universal.
I never said it did. This is why I'm willing to discuss various definitions for morality. There may be criteria for something to be moral even in the relativistic sense. However, if you reject even the thought of relativistic morality then I will not go down this route. I will not pander to the arrogant ignorant.Calling something a moral code does not make it a moral code by mere declaration.
At least here you said something sensible. This is all that needs to be said. I however will not reject any other form of morality absolutely. I am not that arrogant.I've used it for years. I am rejecting your projection of moral relativism as a valid source of morality.
As much fun as this is, it's run it's course. From now on I'll only reply to you if you can actually source what you're saying and actually say something about it, rather than give a link with no context. As much fun as opinionated arguments go, they have their limits in excess. This type of toddler-Facebook discussion is not my thing. However, you may continue in this mindless act.
