>If God does not exist, then everything is permitted. Prove

I mean it's poorly phrased but the argument is pretty solid. Without an absolute foundation for ethics, everything becomes permitted. Just look at the mess that moral relativism has become.

Everything IS permitted, so what matters this? How else could you be enough of a faggot to make this thread, anyway?

Sorry, as a philosopher, I can't answer the unaswerable. It would be futile.

>If our consciences do not exist, then everything is permitted.

Wow I hate empathy now

Some posters in this thread need a good de-spooking.

More like if God exists everything is permitted because because keep using God as an excuse to do horrible things.

Prove Kant wrong? Kant.

Just because morals are a social construct does not mean that they are not useful, or that there are no consequences for not following them. All restrictions should be scrutinised, yes, but they are not revoked. If the consensus is that rape should be punished, then rape is not permitted. If the consensus is that murdered should be punished, then murder is not permitted. It is only the processes by which we determine what is, and is not moral, i.e., what should, and should not be permitted, and how we go about enforcing the consensus reached that need be discussed here.
