There is no such thing as good or evil.

All human begins has a morality, when we do good things we really feel it deep within, same with evil things. Saying good&evil dosen't exist is ignorant. The only difference is our point of views, some actions can be judged as evil by some but good by some...but we shouldn't forget proper behavior is inside all of us. I can garanute you that even few thousand years ago when there were no man-made laws that people didn't kill each other for no reason and if they did, they had some guility feelings.

 

Morality is like science. It's a system of thought. People argue over what constitutes the system, though. There is no objective morality anywhere. This is called moral nihilism; in which one believes there is no morals so anything goes that is within the realm of physical feasibility. So, a person can decide not to partake in the discussion of morals or subscribe to them just like one can decide not to partake in science or use the scientific method. However, just like one cannot claim they're doing something scientific while not using the essential methods of science, one cannot claim they're doing something moral while not using the essential methods of morality. This means that if you, at the least of things, argue that there are no morals then you have no right to claim someone is "evil" or "morally wrong." If you did, then this would result in you simply being, in all practical and semantic terms, wrong. Which is fine, but no one should really be taking you seriously (unless they want to be wrong), since they'd be played for fools to believe you when you don't know what you're talking about.

The definition of morality has been up for debate in ages. Some people would actually disagree and say there is an objective moral truth out there that needs to be followed. I tried finding it myself, but gave up (if you can call it that) because after a while the thought occurred to me that I'm probably looking for something that's just not there. All the more power to the people that are continuing to try and find one though.

TL;DR There is no objective morality, only a system of thought. The system is highly debated. You can't accurately claim any values which involve the system of morality if you do not partake in it yourself.

 

Couldn't agree more. Great post!

 

the belief that there are no ultimate objective morals does not mean that one can not create their own morals
ffs

saying their is no objective morality is NOT the same as nihilism ffs

 

Evil - characterized or accompanied by misfortune or suffering , immoral
Good - morally excellent; virtuous; righteous

Considering everyones morals are different there is no such thing as evil or good simple as that

 

false.
