Re: knowledge and moral judgement
I have a strong feeling that your argument is not correct. Does that make me or anyone else sharing this feeling correct, based solely on our feeling (or the strength of them)?
The strong feelings only apply to moral judgements and aesthetic judgements. Presumably your strong feeling about my argument is neither.

Re: Sorry, Chioptera...you are not God by definition
you are not God by definition
Do you have evidence that Chiroptera is not God, or is that a mere assertion? Are you suggesting that it would be impossible "by definition" for God under an assumed name to post on this forum?

Re: BUMP
You come across as being rather senile. How old are you exactly?

Re: BUMP
Do you have anything to contribute to the topic?
You started it. Do you remember what you said?

Re: BUMP
Well, I remember in another thread
I'm talking about your ad hominem comment. Would you care to retract that?

The fact that you act like a 12 year old has not bearing on the validity of your arguments
Then why bring it up? Just mentioning it in passing?
You amuse me no end, Chiroptera.
I would like to be younger, but I don't think I want to be quite that young. I don't think I want to go through puberty again. Once is enough.

If I hurt your feelings, then I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you
You didn't hurt my feelings, but you did engage in an ad hominem attack.

Since all kinds of feelings are equally powerless to "prove" the existence of an objective reality, yet are used as evidence for objective reality in many OTHER cases, they can also be used in the case of feelings of morality.
What would be an example of our feelings being used as evidence for objective reality that doesn't have to do with morals?
