Much like our appendix, evolution has made certain body parts unnecessary. Male nipples are still used, however in certain rituals and sex games. |

Posted by JayMan on Sun Jun 3 16:28:42 2012, in response to Re: The Homophobic Batshit Continues, posted by Spider-Pig on Sun Jun 3 16:05:29 2012. But, let's be realistic here. Most people who profess to believe in evolution are much too stupid to understand it. They believe it only because it's what their social category has deemed to be right.I've said it before, and I'll likely say it again. While folks like HBD'ers extol average IQs of 100+, let's not forget that a person with an IQ of 100 isn't at all very smart. You don't see respectable intelligence until at least IQ of 120. But then, maybe I'm biased because my IQ is much higher than that. Maybe to someone whose IQ is 170, I am a slobbering buffoon. ;) |

There are plenty things wrong, but in my personal belief (whether or not there is a "God" is besides the point), but "misery", sickness and everything is around because you really don't know how good you have it until there's a problem. What I mean by that is, when things are always good, we tend to get indifferent, unconcerned, unthinking, and just too comfortable. You don't know what good is until you suffered a little.Again, sounds crazy, but on a small scale, did you ever have a cold, and you are in absolute misery, and as you begin to get better, you say, wow, I really feel good now. Well, you don't know what it feels like to feel good until you have been sick. We all become too comfortable when things are going to well. |

But that's just it, there aren't any universal values.* Otherwise we wouldn't have disagreements over what is moral. The values you insist are universal are only universal to the subset of people who agree with you. While I'd like accept many of them as being moral, that doesn't make them any more "special". They aren't any more the "proper" morals because they're yours.*note that I'd actually be happy to be proven wrong and to see an example of a moral principle that we can show to be universal. |
