What if "Good" and "Evil" were in the reverse?

[Primordial Annihilator]

So you promote anarchy then?

No?
Why would I?
But I would not force compliance with certain aspects of my culture on anyone else of another culture...not unless they lived within the confines of my culture...my nation.
I am not a missionary.

Are you suggesting that there is something wrong with drinking alcohol?

Yes its a mocker of man...a killer and a destroyer of families.

If you are not in favor of laws then you automatically default to anarchy. Kinda like the democratic party.

Yes its a mocker of man...a killer and a destroyer of families.

Well maybe in your culture. In other cultures in may be just fine, right?

I favour laws that suit me...I am not exactly a democrat.

Maybe not in egalitarian cultures.

You sound like God now.

Maybe not in egalitarian cultures.

If what you said is true, drinking and driving should be ok in some cultures right?

 

[Primordial Annihilator]

You sound like God now.

Flattery will get you everywhere.

If what you said is true, drinking and driving should be ok in some cultures right?

Indeed as would be having sex with 13 year old girls or killing and eating the brains of your enemy.

 

[Danmac]

Flattery will get you everywhere.

So you do believe in god then. You just believe you're him?

Indeed as would be having sex with 13 year old girls or killing and eating the brains of your enemy.

So are you saying these things should be wrong in every culture?

 

[Primordial Annihilator]

I believe all life forms are manifestations of divine order...(chaos)

So are you saying these things should be wrong in every culture?

Err no because right and wrong are subjective human inventions.

However they are not compatible with western society.

I can dig it.

Do you believe in absolute truth?

 

[Primordial Annihilator]

Do you believe in absolute truth?

Reality is like an Onion with infinite layers...

Do you believe in absolute truth, yes or no?

 

[Primordial Annihilator]

No...

 

[tarasan]

No...

I believe in absolute truth.

What if, in the world we live in today, being "good" was not the "norm"? What if things were the other way around. What if, as a society people were imprisoned for doing "good"? What if doing "evil" was something to give praise for?

How would people's views differ and in what way would you imagine topics, such as are discussed in this forum, would be?

Just something to chew on.

Lol, you must think congress is good.

 

[ninerbuff]

Just look at the democratic agenda and you can answer your own question.

Lol, it wasn't the democratic agenda that lead to the current downfall. It was the republican agenda that asked for and got deregulation of banking. Thanks.

thats how the god in the OT expects us to behave
gen 8:21
“Never again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though[a] every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood..."

the problem with this statement is that it is an obvious fallacy...
the bronze age god has been known to say silly ignorant things...:sarcastic

Um we do live in a world of perpetual evil, that's why this word can be so disgusting...who is doing good when they rape a woman because that is what sex outside of marriage is, consensual or is scarring and a form of rape.

Consumerism is the perversion of a thing into a whore, what else is it when you buy a thing instead of earn it? We buy a woman and this is prostitution...

But we buy chocolate milk made with fake chocolate, artificial sweetner, and bloody milk...and we call this good?

Your perception of reality is pretty flawed.

 

[Danmac]

No...

Are you ABSOLUTELY certain that there are no absolute truths?

 

[Danmac]

I believe in absolute truth.

So who is the author of absolute truth?

 

[Danmac]

That is why the hospital in my home town will refuse emergency patients that can't fork over a $100.00 bill before they can be seen. Their motto is,"go and die somewhere else, we need $100.00 bucks". The republican health care agenda

 

[lilmama1991]

this world is already bad because some sex offenders or people that just get caught selling weed they might get in trouble but not like they should so if good and bad was reverse this world would even worse than it is now
