I mentioned the dictionary. Because if it had your definitions, I'd go to it. But obviously it doesn't have your definitions. That is why I was asking you about it. In response to your "It's totally subjective though, right? you can see that?"

or someone else...taken on faith, or the certainty that is denied by hiesenberg's principle of uncertainty.

Amit Dutta

prescriptive rules for good and bad...as if it meant anything

22 Jun 03:51

Amit Dutta

That's why religions are so horrible

22 Jun 03:50

Amit Dutta

That's why I was a bit confused that you would go to a dictionary to get moral codes, when ethics is not universal (at least I don't believe it can be)

Is right necessarily good? And wrong necessarily bad? I think jerking off on the street feels good. But it's not necessarily right.

22 Jun 03:50

Amit Dutta

right and wrong

22 Jun 03:49

Amit Dutta

--

so yeah when you talk ethics you talk about judgements of good and bad

22 Jun 03:49

Amit Dutta

Ethics or moral philosophy is the branch of philosophy that involves systematizing, defending, and recommending concepts of right and wrong conduct. (ie good and bad)

what is good or bad doesent have an answer ask 100 people you will get 100 different answers

22 Jun 03:48

Amit Dutta

umm

22 Jun 03:48

Good isn't necessarily tied with ethics. You think they aren't mutually exclusive?

22 Jun 03:48

Hey Art!

22 Jun 03:48

Amit Dutta

I just meant "good" or "bad" is a subjective thing. A dictionary won't help you.

22 Jun 03:47

Amit Dutta

yeah you said you'd go to a dictionary to figure out what good meant :) I think I was responding to that

Amit Dutta

So wait remind me what your question was then that spun me off into this ethical debate?

22 Jun 03:45

Hobitt

22 Jun 03:44

Amit Dutta

--
