|
Date: October 21st, 2017 6:27 PM Author: ultramarine corner reading party not absolute.
"stem from" false premise.
If you have two dogs and they both do the same trick, only one of them gets the treat, one is gonna get pissed. If you have two puppies biting each other too hard in play, they learn they need to apologize to keep playing. Etc.
Now get the fuck outta here if your telling me you would feel free to steal and kill and rape etc if there were no god. |
|
Date: October 21st, 2017 6:35 PM Author: sapphire charismatic field legal warrant So dogs have a sense of fairness, you're saying? A wolf in the wild would happily kill a wolf of another pack over a rabbit, as would any housepet's offspring if uninterfered with by humans.
Actually, just re-read your poast, and it's even stupider than I thought upon skimming it! So if a human teaches a puppy not to kill and gives them treats this means acknowledging kant is a ordinal principle of the universe?
Also, of course. I openly and unironically advocate rape and murder as the natural order of things to anyone who asks my opinion. |

I like how you throw in Kant just to sort of, you know, shore things up. |
