As if 'how should one live' is an intellectual issue — StreetlightX
What is the origin of reasonableness? — Isaac Shmukler
I have no idea how one could prevent said AI from becoming any host of negative human emotions and instead decide on its own accord on which emotions to express or feel. — Posty McPostface
Please show me some evidence or some reasons as to why Jesus would abolish the Law when he claimed the complete opposite? — Agustino
For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. — Matthew 5:17-20
I find your interpretation completely un-Christian. — Agustino
Therefore whoever relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven — Agustino
I think he would have allowed the Pharisees to go on with their business. — Agustino
Well, Jesus is God, so He knew what was in the woman's heart. If she repented in her heart (changed her ways), then He chose to forgive her since she would sin no more in the future. If she wasn't guilty on the other hand (which is also a possibility - that the Pharisees were merely testing Jesus), then obviously letting her go was the right thing to do. — Agustino
I don't understand why some people take Jesus to be a pink-wearing liberal - don't forget that it was Jesus who went angrily in the temple with the whip to kick the money-changers out. Do you disagree that immorality (in the absence of repentance at least) requires punishment? — Agustino
Jewish law states that both the man and the woman who are caught in adultery must be stoned (check Leviticus). The Pharisees brought just the woman, said she was caught in adultery, and asked Jesus whether to stone her or not. So Jesus rightfully replied that he who has no sinned, should cast the first stone - because the Pharisees had sinned in singling out just the woman, and not also the man. — Agustino
Even if a god is necessary to create objective morality, what is the difference between objective and subjective morality if we are inclined not to obey it? Is it the punishment that makes it objective? Is it the consequence of going against nature (similar to eating an unhealthy diet, health being a byproduct of living in accordance with the laws of nature), or is it that a deity would know what is best for us all and so "good" here is also what we should desire if we were wise? — INFJTheist
