In today’s episode ofTruth Wanted, Objectively Dan and Secular Rarity play with moonlight and Lucifer as they dive into utilitarianism that brings them full circle to the founding of our...
show moreHoward in Spain is a theist searching for truth by using the scientific method and believes that being agnostic is the best position to hold. He asks why atheists ignore the existence of Lucifer when we can all see the “Light Bearer” with the naked eye as Venus. Cultures had very different ideas about planetary values and stars; why should we believe the culture that assigns Lucifer to venus? What reason do you have to think you know better than astronomers who have studied this? Venus is not directly in front of the sun relative to our position and does not emit its own light. How then is it a “Light Bearer”? We don’t have to be experts in every field to understand the consensus of facts. Howard then proceeds to state a debunked flat earth myth that water set out in moonlight has a lower temperature than water that is left in moon shade. If you are correct, why would all scientists be so hardcore against your position?
Kyna in WA believes that utilitarianism is shaky as a moral foundation. As a basis this does not make sense, but as a way of navigation it is a good way. How would we deal with sociopaths with and without this method?
Frank in TX asks which version of the Ten Commandments should be put up and if it should be the one that includes a feast of unleavened bread. There are different interpretations of these stories and Jesus did not care about most of them. This precedent set can very quickly roll out of proportion. For instance, why is it okay that a football coach stands in the public field inviting people to pray to his version of god? This is profoundly anti-American to its core. We don’t like violations of church and state.
Jon in Canada asks why the hosts are offended by the Ten Commandments being posted in public schools. Do you see problems with the Tenants of Satanism being posted? How Is the violation of The Constitution not enough of a reason? We are secular and the separation of church and state is a founding principle of our government. The “Year of Our Lord” is not mentioned in The Constitution, at all. If you are a citizen, read The Constitution.
Thank you for discovering the truth with us! Question of the week is: Aliens would not abduct me because________.
