what makes 'good' good? is it human consciousness that gives it meaning? if human beings didn't create (or posses the ability to conceptualize) these ideas, of good and evil, would any phenomenon still be categorized as good or bad? take a random stone for instance, (to the admins, "can this be googled, then?")
Oct 07, 2020It is objectively defined in the principles of God... and for humans its defined based on their God given conscience... Forget for a moment about survival cuz Darwinians like to use it cuz it applies to all social beings cuz if you start killing each other no one is left ena think about sexual mortality... an ape or a chick with many sexul partners and not be affected while humans develop more emotional connection and God made it for man to mate with one woman he married for life... when you deviate from that its objectively wrong and has consequences like * Victim mindset * Divorces * STDs * Guilt... the leading cause for suicide in my conclusion the principles of God are the moral instruments to distinguish good and bad cuz some issues if not objectively seen are tricky and subtle if taken subjectively.... for more info listen to Ravi Zacharias about the same issue
Oct 07, 2020ya you're conscience dulls as you keep living in sin see Romans 1:18 ... and yeah when God objectively classifies those things to be bad its has bad consequences for you.... God is all knowing.... and he is your heavenly father... meaning his principles are for your ultimate advantage... I dare you to obey God faithfully and tell me its a wrong decision
Oct 07, 2020well they wasn't created in his Image so yeah they don't go to heaven.... and chimpanzees know right and wrong in a sense of survival... they don't have conscience not to kill another chimpanzee....at best Darwinian world view defines Animals I have a question for you...do you know that there are no fossils found on the intermediate between apes and men?? .... they are just fabricated and do you know that the human genome project (the most trusted source) concludes that man is genetically similar to chimpanzees only 70% not 98 %. and that man is 98 % genetically similar to some sea creature its just a hoax that Hollywood made you believe!!
Oct 07, 2020Please go back to the morality discussion. If Good and Bad is defined based on survival for apes and what does that make it for humans? Can it be objectively defined?
Oct 07, 2020Every body knows what good and bad is in their subconscious we just forgot it because we forgot how to access our subconscious and we're filled with this individual idea of what good and bad is and we learn that from our community (culture, religion... )
Oct 07, 2020the thing you use to judge something good or bad is called a moral law in order for a moral law to exist there must be a moral law giver And that moral law giver Is the Almighty God The fault of Darwinian world view is that it doesn't answer the question of * origin * meaning *morality *Destiny as the Christianity does i challenge you to have the same level of questioning and skepticism towards Darwiniansm or atheism or agnosticism or whatever
Oct 07, 2020@BooksThief The righteous mind by #JonathanHaidt
Oct 08, 2020When the admins took too long to approve this question, It gave me some time to google answers and QUORA suggested reading The righteous mind by JonathanHaidt . I recommend you all check it out
Oct 08, 2020Nah it occurs under the subconscious.. no one tells u that its wrong to kill ur mother its written in ur essence
Oct 07, 2020There must be a standard of Good outside of ourselves to say rape is wrong for all time and for all places. But according to evolution if we as a species 10000yr from now conclude rape isn't wrong then it's wrong now but not after a 10000yr. So evolution doesn't answer this question

Oct 07, 2020Am a Muslim....... and for muslims what is morally Good and Bad is defined by God in the Quran and the Sunnah. So its always objective and doesn't change with time
Oct 07, 2020Evil makes good good , death lets us know the value if life, night lets us know the value of day, being healthy and sick.....

Oct 07, 2020There's inconsistency in morality new enji then.
Oct 07, 2020In Darwinian terms, the concept of good is integral for survival. Especially for social animals like chimpanzees and ourselves. Good, for such animals, is what helps the group survive. e.g. Chimps adopt children that aren't their own, they look after the sick and take care of the aged. Morality isn't exclusive to humans, it's also found in other primates. For other species, however, it varies greatly. e.g. Cuckoos are one of the most selfish lifeforms out there. The have developed this amazing process called egg mimicry. Whenever a cuckoo female lays an egg, she does it in another bird's nest. The egg perfectly resembles the foster bird's other eggs. The cuckoo mother removes an original egg and substitutes her own, hence ensuring the continuation of her species. So, in conclusion, good and bad vary among different species. But what is most important is that our form of morality is more or less found in other primates.
