  21. Re: Want to rant about rightwings and conservatives? This is your thread.

    So, to put your argument into a syllogism:

    Premise 1: Ancient Roman law punished incest
    Premise 2: ???
    Conclusion: Incest is objectively immoral

    That doesn't follow. What's the unstated...
  22. Re: Want to rant about rightwings and conservatives? This is your thread.

    I don't really see how just repeating "Christianity is pro-incest/polygamy/murder/whatever" over and over again actually rebuts the claim that morality is inherently religious and there's no secular...

  24. Re: Want to rant about rightwings and conservatives? This is your thread.

    I don't know, I'm not the one saying they can.



    So, there is no secular argument for why incest is objectively immoral. It's just a different preference.

    Already addressed in previous posts.

    If you say so, man.

    I'm still not seeing any coherent secular arguments for why incest is immoral.
  27. Re: Want to rant about rightwings and conservatives? This is your thread.

    That's not unique or inherent to incest though. Lots of non-incestuous couples have poor eyesight or autism or whatever but you probably wouldn't say it's immoral for them to have sex. Plus not all...
  28. Re: Want to rant about rightwings and conservatives? This is your thread.

    You're basically agreeing with him though. He says there's no secular arguments against incest and you're saying you don't have any argument against it. That's not a rebuttal.
