The history of the western world from the 19th century onwards has had one overarching philosophical conflict that continues to define it and by extention the people it dominates: the so called death of god.

That is to say, what system of morality do we construct if we abandon religion? What is the meaning of life if not to worship a creator? Race? Darwinism? Class struggle? What is this whole living thing ment for? What are we supposed to do?
>>

Religious morality didn't prevent supposedly God-fearing religitards from being every bit as evil and degenerate as a demon-worshipping sewer jeet.
>>
>>18600756
Ironically you only think these people are evil because you adopted a secularized and sanitized version of christian morality yourself. And you don't even realize it, you'll deny it even, like most modern leftoids.
>>
>>18600756
So what is your solution? What is humanity ment to do? Nothing? "Whatever you make of it"? Replicate like insects untill we run out of resources and die out? Murder, theft, these laws matter for the functioning of a society. Sexual conduct, social welfare, equality, human rights, diplomacy, war, these are things that have yet to be settled. What do we use all the resources industrialization brought for? "Your system didn't stop evil". Of course. What now?
>>
>>18600762
If so, why didn't savage religitards realize they were being evil whenever they tortured and murdered innocents?
>>
>>18600764
>Replicate like insects untill we run out of resources and die out?
Yes, you can thank rationalism, idealism, economics and sociology for that.
>>
>>18600764
>So what is your solution?
What is the problem?

> What is humanity ment to do?
It's not "meant" to do anything. It just does what it always did with varying rationalizations.
>>
>>18600765
Natural law and "might makes right" will always triumph over moralism
>>
>>18600773
So they knew they it was evil but they didn't care because their handlers could torture and murder them as well?
>>
>>18600775
Evil doesnt exist, it's a religtard cope that you seem to have adopted because you're a crypto-religitard yourself, without even realizing it. The smart religious people realize this and then act accordingly.

If you genuinely have to ask this question, you're retarded. But don't worry, most people are.

Morals exist mostly to prevent anarchy so that we all get something good out of life.

Louis accepted his death with stoicism, Robespierre was the one that died screaming like a bitch (tbf, he had shot his jaw off with a pistol)

The guy was dangerous because he could manipulate the masses with his words. It was safer to shot his jaw off.

>>18600778
there's something to evil, i think. occasionally there are things that repulse most of us so much, that don't have a reason grounded in anything material.
>>
>>18600778
>Evil doesnt exist
correct. its just absence of Good. amen.

>What is humanity meant to do?
You'll not get a good answer for a question that is bad. There is no "humanity", first of all. Secondly, you are meant to "do" something. I'll tell you what I do, as an example. I take the bible, the religion and I cast my shadow onto it, I egoistically interpret it in my way. I try to do it artistically. I hope it'll inspire me and, perhaps, you, as well. That is my piety, if you want.
>>
>>18600778
I'm an atheist and I believe in evil.
>>
>>18600764
You can do whatever you want, retard. If you want to spend your whole life fruitlessly praying to a God that doesn't exist, then you can do that. No one cares.
>>
>>18603433
Then you're not consequent.
>>
>>18603450
Wrong. Evil obviously exists. For example, look at niggers.
>>
>>18603452
Of course, it is a case of Plato. What else.
>>
>>18600751
Retarded take. Almost all armed conflicts in the 19th and 20th centuries were between religious people on both sides.
>>
>>18603433
Then you're a retard with incoherent views you inherited from living in a society with christian morals
