Would you kill a newborn? If not why? Because of the consequences or because your apparently nonexistent moral compass forbids it?sorry planidium but this isn't a question
but for real, i think this is still applying a human ideal onto reality by relating what is commonly observed as order and chaos to the concept of good and evil or assigning words like 'destructive' to them, since it still relies on what people perceive as being destructive. i don't think the idea of absolute order is something that's inherently good and the same applies to absolute chaos and evil. i do think conflicts of all kinds are natural but i think they exist in a state of neutrality prior to people viewing them through their own lens.
You're supposed to be goth, start acting like it.AmA like these are supposed to be quirky, not filled with philosophy
i still think it all comes down to perception as opposed to good and evil being innate. i don't think they are forces that exist in any tangible form in the universe, and instead exist only as concepts as a means for us to understand things. the fact that they're subject to change depending on individuals, societal norms, etc only enforces this for me. there are obviously certain things that, on average, people would object to, like killing a newborn. and this isn't exclusive to humans either, but i think there are other reasons at play, like biological factors (i know certain animals have been observed to display emotions similar to humans, though).Would you kill a newborn? If not why? Because of the consequences or because your apparently nonexistent moral compass forbids it?
Murder and death are by all definitions considered evil, from humans to worms. Every living organism considers its own death as "evil" even if it lacks the emotional and intellectual capacity to understand it. On a grander scale destruction is in its nature "evil" as compared to order, although absolute order breeds destruction through stagnation. The same way limited or natural chaos and destruction breed life and change.
Saying that good or evil doesn't exist goes against life itself, if the universe is dead and devoid of any sentience and life then yes it would be considered neutral however as long as there is life to observe and experience it then that life will have its own ideas of what is good or evil. You say that good and evil are subjective and I agree however that doesn't make them illusions as for each living individual their own perception is real as is their own personal good and evil.
What is less easily distinguished is exactly where the good ends and the evil begins, what's good for one creature is evil to another. In that sense you are right that on a grander scale the definition loses meaning but that same grander scale is separate from life itself, a whole different reality of inanimate existence if you will. Life is build around the very concept of good, evil, bad, pleasure, pain, happiness and sadness, to lack these is to be a rock.
