Fuck you
Even if I agree with you for the filioque,etc...
Anti-intellectualism is as much of a plague as intellectualism.
The 5ways are fine, they were used by Church fathers and predates Thomas Aquinas.
>but we need a special God
We have Christ for that. No need to throw away good metaphysics.

If life is suffering why don't you just kill yourself to put an end to your suffering?
>b-but I need to spread anti natalist ideas
Anti natalist ideas will lead others to suffer, as they say "ignorance is a bliss."
>b-but my friends and family will suffer
Kill them before you kill yourself.
>b-but their friends and family will suffer
That brings us back to the first point: life is suffering anyways so who cares if they suffer.

I'm stuck reading Plato's complete works, specifically at Sophist, and am being a pussy. Please help me understand this:

>Further if that WHICH IS is not a whole by possessing that as a characteristic, but rather just is THE WHOLE itself, THAT WHICH IS will turn out to be less than itself
>And because it's deprived of itself, THAT WHICH IS will NOT BEING, according to that account
>And everything will be more than one. since THAT WHICH IS and THE WHOLE will each have its own separate nature

>Genocide isn't immoral.

When the allies liberated the concentration camps, they took Germans inside to see the reality of Nazi ideology; it was traumatic. No sane, ordinary person would agree with the Nazis after seeing the camps in real life. It would have 'woken them up' right there.

With ordinary Germans there is at least some excuse, but Eichmann was literally the main coordinator of the logistics of the holocaust. The sheer enormity of what he was doing should be significant enough to wake someone up from whatever mass social pathology they succumbed to and think with reason. He was guilty as fuck, and that should be regardless of whether you believe in objective morality. Pro-tip: it exists.

Genocide should be self-evidently wrong to anyone, even if objective morality doesn't exist. Prove that he didn't do anything immoral.

I seriously hope you don't believe this.
