In Response To: Oh Goodness... (Dan Johnson)

: Okay, I'm letting my Platonic side show, here, but I have real issues with
: the idea of good and bad not existing. If there were no good (nor Good)
: then I would have no reason to continue living- there would be no point. I
: do stuff, because it seems good (at the time, at least). I read the Story
: page because it is a good read. I eat sushi because it tastes good. I fart
: because it makes me feel better.

I would hope you will not suggest that everyone else perceives exactly the same things as good and evil that you do?
All the the person you are replying to is suggesting is that there is no *Universal* concept of Good and Bad - the planets don't revolve around the Sun because it is good that they do so, and while an animal's death is Bad to it, it is Good to the thing that kills it and gets a meal. That's all.
Of course you have your own view of Good and Bad - but that's all they are... your own view.
(and I am a post-nilhilist thank you for asking :) )
