>>16318046you can look at us the way you do at them i guess
and again at the end of it all its just that humans are retarded and do fucked up shit cause we feel like it
if u leave a caveman alone with another one for long enough one of them is gonna get curious to see what happens when he bashes the other one to death with a rock
in some forms of civilization these things we consider sinful are just the norm and what they see as the usual anyhow, how would they know whether to follow a good or bad urge if the "bad" and "good" are both completely unknown to them?
tribespeople killed each other a lot just because they thought "well this is what we do lol" they didnt think of it as good or bad
idk which ones exactly, but i know some of them had this thing where every once in a while somebody from one tribe kills someone from the other literally just because, and then they all gather up and meet somewhere with the other tribe and chuck spears at each other then go home
which rarely killed people i think, just a lot of wounds
but they did that like it was routine and then just went back home
until somebody from their tribe went ahead and killed someone from the other and they do the exact same thing again
its interesting because none of them considered as something with a purpose in any way, not even as a act of war anyway
they kill someone and then chuck spears at each other because well thats just what humans do i guess lets do it and go home
how do these urges of inherent good or bad apply to them, in that case?
our own system of morality is almost entirely as arbitrary as what those tribes were doing anyway
what if something we think to be good is actually something terribly sinful and we're all going to hell for it? those tribespeople didnt know that slitting each others throats was really a bad thing or whatever, its just what they were used to doing
so idk these urges of objective "good" or "bad" just dont really hold up for me
