Assuredly there are some things you believe which aren’t scientifically provable? In particular questions about how one should order their life? Not questions

Assuredly there are some things you believe which aren’t scientifically provable? In particular questions about how one should order their life? Not questions about ‘is’ but questions about ‘should’.
Is a love of peace over violence, freedom over slavery, ignorance over wisdom simply a matter of taste?
- tombert 3y agoYeah but I wouldn't really consider that "faith", more "opinions". Like, I think the best moral code tends to be "try and maximize empathy" as at least for me that seems to usually leads to the best results. Do I have some kind of objective proof that that's best? No, not really, it's a "feels" based judgement, but I don't think that's a "faith" based thing either, any more than me saying that "Donkey Kong Country 2 is the best game ever" would be. We can objectively measure how close something is to some moral framework, but the weighting of that moral framework will eventually get subjective. I don't think subjectivity implies "faith".
