If a man killed me for looking at him, and society allowed it, this death would be just and correct.
Why wouldn't it be just and correct?
Why didn't you also quote were I have said, many times, that morality is a social contract?

You still have not answered the question.
To violate the lives of any human is (in the most general sense) wrong.
Just another unsupported assertion. Why is it wrong?

Re: You still have not answered the question.
Re-read my post, I believe I said something about humans each having a special dignity.
Another special pleading and unsupported assertion.
Do you have any real reasons for your position?

Re: You still have not answered the question.
Morality is education. People that understand morality know what is right and what is wrong. I credit Socrates with that.
Another non answer.
Come on kids. You can do better.

Re: You still have not answered the question.
Excuse me,
it is not a non answer. it is straight out of the horses mouth.
You sure it was that end of the horse?
LOL
You defined something in terms that are also undefined. That means you provided no definition. All you said was bugglesdorpf is phenestrophie.
