Sometimes nature causes harm

Think about the fucking q for 5 seconds before answering retard

>>8857565
You're gonna have to define evil first, my man

>>8857565
Subjective.

>>8857689
>evil is whatever causes unprovoked harm to another living being
What do you think of my definition?

>>8857689
You're gonna have to define define first, my man

>>8857717
I'll define both of those if you define my man, monkey boy.

"evil" is nothing but a construct of human morality resulting from what we experience as free will

free will is a consequence of consciousness
therefore everything without consciousness cant be evil

99.999999999999% of 'nature' doesnt even know what evil means

>tl;dr: fuck off

>>8857742
I can consider it evil from my conscious point of view
why does it bother you so much, though?

>>8857742
How do you know that only humans have consciousness?

>>8857749
seems like we do need a definition of what 'evil' actually means :^)

>>8857757
>only humans have consciousness
where have I mentioned that in my post? do you even read?

you guys are fucking idiots, im outta here

what is a living being? what is the border between living and non living being? Is a video game character a living being? If not, would it be if it's very smart? Or does it have to be made out of organic matter? If so, would a video game character with all of its limitations of nowadays, but made out of organic matter be considered a living being?
Is virus a living being?

Nature is inherently opportunistic.

First you need to be able to choose to do harm and it not being in your instinct to do harm (aka, feed on your natural prey)

>>8857565
Nothing is inherently evil, "evil" is concept that exists within an ethical system. So going by a given ethical system, one could consider it as such.

Is he drowning that rabbit ?

"Being evil" is a human concept. Nature is amoral, it's just what it is.

>>8857963
Drowned it to eat it.

>>8857565
Blame the survival instinct.

>>8857972
>>8857565

This. To do evil it is necessary that you could have done otherwise. Nature doesn't think or choose between options, it just keeps doing whatever it did previously that worked.

Dont fell a thing on rekt threads.

>Picture not related

>>8857565
No. And evil is a complex topic in philosophy.

>>8857963
Do you not wash your food before eating it?

I consider evil to be otherwise avoidable, needless, immoral acts.

So torturing something is evil. By that definition dolphins and cats are evil but we already know that.

Relevant Jordan Peterson lecture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwUJHNPMUyU

I don't know if this is the lecture where he talks about the difference between actual, malevolent evil and that of tragedy, but that's a key concept to get before you even begin to head into talking about good and evil.
