Is Christianity the highest form of morality?

nihilism is the alpha and the omega of morality

Yeah, of course.

Hitchens is the highest form of based.

The answer is no, obviously: Christianity is slave morality, and only for the weak. Be a superman, anon.

>> No.7262376

The Golden rule is alright by me, but some of the things that are considered sinful seem kind of arbitrary.

Shrimp, pork, tattoos, buggery. I don't think there's anything morally wrong with a little of all of those.

Now, what was so difficult about that?

Morals are beliefs held by individuals, so they are entirely subjective and relative. So none can be "higher" than another.

I've heard that argument from atheists and not Christians as no one has ever considered Leviticus to be a moral law, even in most of legal history it was only a point of reference for principles.

What's Christian morality?

The old testament has very good morality.

Catholic morality is a mental illness. I haven't studied protestant morality much but it seems not as obviously diseased as the catholic "original sin" shit.

Surely they were just as much missing Hinduism or Tengriism or something.

>> No.7264802

Certainly. What it sets out as being moral is, ultimately, unachievable, and therefore leaves you striving to achieve throughout. After all, if you fulfil the conditions, there's very little else to do and a lot to lose. Who hasn't looked upon another woman in lust? It's difficult not to.

There's been a recent surge in Christians on this board, I am not sure if they are trolls but well, I would recommend reading the Bible anywho. Not trying to be a faggot, but it's the foundation of Western literature, if there is any foundation it certainly is anywho, and should be read.
