Whose ethics?

From whence come ethics if there is no objective standard of right and wrong?

The universe doesn’t have any sense of right and wrong. In the universe, what is, is, and nothing more.

Godless evolution attempts to explain the “how” of the universe but its own parameters deny its ability to explain the “why”.


Basic ethics, justice and decency. The 'sin' of the father is not passed onto the following generations by any standard of justice, where the innocent are not punished for the actions of their ancestors.

its all relative morality until a higher power holds sway.

but its funny as fugk an atheist coming up with a "standard" with regard to decency and ethics.


Again Whos Ethics , yours? mine? some fugkin dope addict living in a tent in Seattle?
Joe O'Bidens ethics? Paul Keating? Prince Charles? Meegan Markle? How about Camilla Parker Bowels should I do as Camiller does?

Whos ethics will save the world and put us on a path to peace and spiritual fulfilment ?


Logic: is it fair to punish the children for the actions of their parents?

If a crime is committed by the parents, the children did not do the crime, they may not even know what was done.

It neither logical, reasonable or ethical that the innocent are punished for the actions of the perpetrator.

Invoking God or saying 'God works in mysterious ways' does not resolve the issue.
