I think you mean that slavery was legal. Most people would hold that it was never moral. Some people hold these same beliefs now about some of our current behaviors toward other animals: they're legal but not moral.
- matz1 7y agoWell, for me our current behavior towards animal is moral. Moral is subjective after all. Just like slavery it ultimately decided by who can force the other (physically or persuasively) to follow their morality.
- jnbiche 7y ago> Moral is subjective after all This statement is not as self-evident as you seem to believe. Philosophers and ethicists have been debating it for millennia.
- matz1 7y agoThen what is your argument againts it? I provided attitude towards animal as an example. >Philosophers and ethicists have been debating it for millennia Thats even more strengthen my position that morality is subjective.
- jnbiche 7y agoYou provided your opinion. That's it. So OK, I'll do the same: I disagree that morality is subjective. Edit: so if I disagree that the world is round, that shows that it's flat?
- matz1 7y agoRight, that show that it is subjective. >so if I disagree that the world is round, that shows that it's flat? No, it just show that you disagree that the world is round
