There's certainly plenty wrong with it; perhaps you meant to say it's not illegal.
- smabie 6y agoI mean, morality is an opinion, so it doesn't really make sense to try and correct someone about it.
- liability 6y agoIs the internet not a perfectly reasonable place to state a reasonable and mainstream opinion? And if not, why don't you tell this to the GP as well? I responded to a statement of opinion with a counter-opinion.
- nathan_compton 6y agoThis is an incredibly glib dismissal of an entire area of philosophy. It may seem intuitively obvious to you that there are not moral facts (it seemed intuitively obvious that the opposite was true to people even as recently as 150 years ago) but the debate is hardly settled by any intervening scientific or cultural or philosophical advancement. I guess read J.L. Mackie's "Ethics" for an introduction to the subject.
