Default Re: Question for Non-Believers

[ QUOTE ]
If a person does not hold the belief that murder is wrong, then is can never be so to that person.

I think you're saying exactly what I am saying, that there is no way to prove moral implications to someone. I will add: this is true, specifically in the case of no god involved.

If you don't mind me asking, how would you justify your moral position on murder? From other posts you seem to think that it is reasonable to consider moral implications, so that is why I ask. One could consider effects on society and there are conclusions to be drawn from that, but that is not what I'm talking about.

What specifically makes murder "wrong" apart from all practical considerations.
