If God were real, you wouldn’t need a book

but morality is rational.
You've piqued my interest.

Scenario: you notice that a small child is stuck in a culvert in a deserted area just outside of town. You can keep on with your business or you can help the child.

You claim that morality is rational. What kind of proof, or science, or mathematical calculation, or empirical evidence can you provide that will tell someone what the correct course of action is?

this is a falsely constructed paradigm.

a marginal case.

no thanks.

in general, cooperation works.

when we cooperate and don't steal from each other or try to rape each others wifves, we can take all energy and resources wasted on that for cooperative efforts.

of course war pigs thrive on death and destruction, so they lie about morality as part of their job.

it's evil and you will be judged.

You should learn the difference between a scenario and a paradigm.

I provided you an honestly presented, genuinely constructed, straightforward scenario. There were no paradigms involved.

You have pivoted. Let's get back to your assertion that morality is rational. I don't see anything rational about it. Morality is purely irrational emotion compelling one to act a certain way or to refrain from acting in a particular way. I see no rational calculus to be applied or any critical/deductive reasoning to be performed.

You say otherwise. I'm listening.

So how does this maxim of yours help you decide what to do in the scenario I provided?

How does this tell you what behavior to avoid in the scenario I provided?

you're a pompous idiotic smegma tool.

thanks for staying gay and stupid.

:truestory:

why don't you explain how morality is irrational?

you can't your just a fool.
 
Have you ever [observed the effects of] a gravitational field?
FTFY. Yes.

We know and have measured precisely the mass, electrical charge, and quantum spin of the quarks.
Chanting. I like the way you try to include yourself in the domain of thmart perthonth by sneaking in the Marxist "we".

Anyway, you don't know anything, which is why you don't answer my question about the specifics of how any quark is supposedly discovered/observed.

You never answer any of my questions whereas I answer all of yours. I need to change my ways.

Yes they can.
Nope, not until you explain the specifics of how.

They can be detected and their properties measured in high energy particle accelerators.
Lame chanting. All dismissed.
