Sociopath =/= anti-social

That video above is disturbing.

My wife travels mainland for work a lot. And noticed the difference in crackheads up there compared to here.  HI druggies are more chill compared to the mainland.

Dallas TX the homeless addict beggars want to tell you a 15 minute story about why they need to borrow a dollar. A bunch of them carry a folder with documents to 'prove' their particular plight was unavoidable.

It's a lot of work. They aren't even making minimum wage. Gotta respect the salesmanship and covering their bases.

Think these people are Religious ?

I would bet a bunch are. But that’s my thought.

What does it have to do with anything ?
Haven’t formed an opinion on that yet.
Pondering.

You can’t explain anything I can’t google.
So don’t worry about it.
Google seems to be the extent of your thought process.

I thought you weren’t replying to my posts because I allegedly lied about you.

After you lied about me, I'm not answering another comment from you.

What makes a person religious ?
Thinking about it:
What makes a person religious in the eyes of the religion?
What makes a person religious in their own eyes ?
If you kill someone intentionally but later accept Jesus or Mohammed or whoever are you later absolved if you confess your sins?
Edit: or rape a kid or whatever heinous act.

Stop replying.
It wouldn’t be trolling.

If you ask a question no one can answer, it was a good question.
Ponder.

Does that make you a liar ?
Go ahead and answer that one.
Oh dang. Direct question. We’ll never get an answer.

But isn’t lying a sin ?
Or you can Umni it and just say you changed your mind.

Goal post moved !

Interesting points.   Suicide would be good for natural selection.  The weak killing themselves off.  So that point doesn't really work.   As for conflicting beliefs that does hold weight. But what if neither side has to be correct.   If both only judged with science one "society" will have the most success. The one with rape and murder is most likely to end itself and the one without will "win". And that can define the rules and laws.   Which would end up being science based.   Animals have no morals yet they have "rules" that they follow.

Sure, you could use science to determine what values lead to a society to have the most "success" but it can never establish something as right or wrong. You could say that rape doesn't lead to a successful society but you can't argue that rape is bad. You can't even prove why we should aim for a "successful" society.

Why do you need to know if something is right or wrong.   Thats the question.   Does that matter?   As for a successful society,  evolution and natural selection will "aim" for that regardless.   Theres no need to "try".  It will happen over time.

I can see how the lawyers that raised you set you adrift in the sea of life without a compass to guide you.  To you, everything is "gray area", because you don't have a moral foundation upon which to build your judgements.

In your world, right and wrong are determined by whoever makes the most convincing case to you.  And your anti-religion bias ensures that anyone offering an argument based on their values of right and wrong will be dismiss out of hand while you accuse them of shoving their religion down your throat.

Nobody can convince you you're wrong, because you refuse to entertain the possibility that someone who believes in God can ever be right.
