Moral Dilemmas.

[Theland]

Just sneaked back in to play games with Nailit.

So, "Moral Dilemmas."

Can you think of any that leave you unable to resolve?

[Theland]

That is a good example.

Theland, //Airy fairy. Another put down. No surprises there then.

I'll ask again. Why did you ask this question?

[Theland]

Pure interest.

[naomi24]

Come on, Theland. You just sneaked in the play games with Nailit. What games?

[Theland]

Nailit and I have a strange relationship. Me a believer, him an atheist. Both similarities in character, (I think), I like him, he is argumentative and spikey. A challenging debater, but fair, most times. Good fun talking to him.

The big question is; whose morals? yours, mine, his or hers. Morality is flexible, - well, is it or isn't it? If it isn't, why not?

[Theland]

Khandro - That is an excellent question.
Where indeed is the gold standard of morality.
Morality, subjective or objective?
I feel another thread emerging here!

Good question. Don't know the answer. Got some rules of thumb for adjudicating among different moral systems.

But don't get the his/hers, bit, Khandro.

Is it right because the gods ordain it? Or do the gods ordain it because it's right? (Plato's Euthyphro)
