Then why are there so many bad and selfish people in the world if morality is completely objective?
Many ancient cultures were also cruel and cannibalistic so are you telling me that morality is completely objective? It can't be completely objective. |

| I think that what we consider morality is encoded in our genes. Moral behavior is beneficial from an evolutionary standpoint, not that there isn’t a socialized component, too. Everything you said is true. Everything is the universe is governed by physics, chemisty and biology, therefore there is no... |

| I believe we have at least some free will even if we live in very hard circumstances. I mean there must be some free will or what is the meaning of life and morality at all? I mean that if there is no free will at all then we may all just die because life is utterly and completely pointless. There i... |

| I hate to be the one who always says the same thing but there is probably no God and never was. Religion is probably a natural phenomena but I think it divides and controls people instead of uniting and freeing people. If there really was some kind of higher power then I think we would know it alrea... |

| Although I'm not an expert on human mate and sexual selection, I think human biology can at least partially explain why some men can't get a girlfriend or sex. If evolution is true and humans really evolved like the other animals of the animal kingdom then this can explain why women will always go a... |

| The most rational reason I can see for being single long term is genetics and natural selection. The way I see it evolution and natural selection completely explain why some people are unable to attract a mate. Some people have more attractive genes than others so it is easier for them to attract a ... |

| I hate summer too and actually prefer winter when it's cold. Also in winter I can hide out more, especially in a heavily forested area. Also in cold weather there's many things you can do to stay warm while in the scorching summer heat there's not so many things you can do to remain cool and hydrated. |

| Yellow is the color of the sun and the sun is very very hot especially now that it is summer in the northern hemisphere. The color yellow also reminds me of the color of scrambled eggs and I was never crazy about scrambled eggs. Red is the color of blood but can also be the color of hot things which... |

| I think that women dislike ugly guys. And if a man is ugly and poor then he stands absolutely no chance of ever getting any attention and affection from any girl and that's the crazy part of life. Handsome looks and a lot of wealth matter quite a lot to many pretty young girls and especially to youn... |

Anyone who says that evolution and Darwinism is false is being extremely dishonest. Check out this science forum where a leading scientist says that there is unde... |

| The Arab countries are pretty bad. Not long ago Lebanon sent missiles on Israel in order to kill as many Jews as possible. The Arabs hate Jews this is why it is a bad idea for any Jewish guy to go to any Arab or Muslim country. If you look at countries like Lebanon there is always civil war going on... |

| Given the cruel and harsh world that we live in I think it's safe to presume that God does in fact not exist. If God existed then clearly he would have helped out people who are abused or bullied or who face some other kind of troubles. But the fact is, as things stand, God never helps people who ar... |
