You already know what I think about this and about what happens when people disagree about morals. We have talked about it explicitly. You are asking me about it again anyway. You are trolling.
Originally posted by @dj2beckerThis is a complete, deliberate and rather cretinous mischaracterization of what I have explained and argued very clearly in the past. I have no need to repeat myself. I am not jumping through your trolling adolescent hoops.

These are your words FMF.
Originally posted by @dj2beckerYes and what about the thousands and thousands of other words I also wrote on this subject? Didn't you read any of them? Go and troll somebody else.

Originally posted by @fmfIf morality is purely subjective as you say then all the thousands and thousands of words you have written about morality would be equivalent to you trying to defend your stance that the color blue is prettier than the color pink. No much use really to anyone.

Originally posted by @dj2beckerIf you believe that the chronic dysfunction in our conversations has been caused by my immaturity, then so be it. If I discern some improvement in your behaviour, I will resume discussing things with you.
Play the troll card whenever your arguments crumble. Very mature indeed.

Originally posted by @fmfWhat you don't seem to get into your head is the fact that if morals are purely subjective there is no universally correct answer to a moral question. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Asking the question "Is it better to be selfless than selfish?" would be equivalent to asking "Is the color pink better than the color blue?" There is no correct answer. Ponder upon that, maybe it will sink in eventually.

Originally posted by @dj2beckerYou're missing the part where you are supposed to talk to me as if you'd read my posts instead of asking the same questions over and over and over again as if you haven't.
What 'actual meaning' have I not gotten into my head? I understand your stance. What am I missing?

Originally posted by @dj2beckerColours are not morals. Colours would only perhaps be analogous to morals in the mind of a child or a person with some kind of intellectual disability who has never thought about morality.
