The liberal philosophy is one of secular humanism. They cite dawrinism as a main reason why they do not believe in a God. These same rational social darwinist neglect to understand what darwinism means for humanist. If we as humans are nothing more than the end result of a purely random purely amoral blind evolutionary process… then the very notion of being a humanist is utterly philosophically inconsistent. If human life is simply a glorious accident and all feelings of anything else like love for your family, patriotism, compassion for another human being… .if these are nothing more than chemical reactions taking place inside your body… then how do liberal humanist… aka social darwinist…. Aka.. Athiest.. (All one and the same) how do they reason that people… any people have rights? Why do these liberal humanist pretend to care about the poor, the sick, the defensless when any rational philosophically consistent liberal should understand thats its all just a bunch of chemical reactions and nothing really matters with this point of view. It is the only rational philosophically consistent view that an educated rational liberal can have. So why the play at humanism? It has been utterly debunked by Darwin while thiest still have no trouble believing in God. Explain your motivations and how they are philosophically consistent.

I consider myself an atheist because I really don't believe in "god". However, I also don't believe in Darwinism because I don't believe that in a few million years from now, if human is to survive that long, that we would evolve into something different. My belief is that we were put on Earth for a reason and if that reason is to flourish and rule the Earth than it is what it is, no one will ever know the truth.

To assert that "god" put us on this Earth is going a little overboard. No one has ever seen "god", not even Jesus while he was walking the Earth. The stories in the bible are merely hearsay, story written about the magical miracles performed by Jesus. These stories are not first hand account of the witness since most of the stories are written decades if not generation after the incidents by unknown author after the death of the eye witnesses.

As human being, we were raised by our parents. And through our parents and through our own experience we learn empathy and humility. This form of knowledge is the foundation of who we are. Two child of different race are not born racist. I had and still have friends who are black, white, spanish, and asian. I was not taught or raised in a racist household unlike some people. My son and daughter plays with friends of different color everyday in our neighborhood.

To imply that an ethic group do not have rights or to even consider that a particular race are superior is a result of their upbringing. I believe we treat everyone the way we want to be treated regardless of race, gender, religion, or sexuality. Laws in the United States are created to ensure that this should be the foundation of a civilized society. Without law respecting other people, we will have anarchy and survival of the fittest would be the defining factor in the evolution of human being as it was during the early history of humanity.

Dude...way to jump to some conclusions there...keep going and you can probably generalize enough to conclude that the Earth is flat. Stop spouting generalizations and go talk to some of these so called 'liberals'. You might learn something.

So if your going to reply then block me from replying I can assume you have realized that I'm not falling for the misdirection and personal attacks and I guess it means that you do not have an actual counter to the logical argument stated and the very real implications it has for secular humanist, etc anyone who cites darwinism as their sole source of origin. It's not rocket science and it's not personal it's simply stating a logical conclusion derived from an argument about the random amoral nature of human origins (from a humanist point of view ) and how that same random amoral origin basically makes being a secular humanist a not so rational choice.

Morality, like religion, is a construct of culture. Culture is a construct of human interaction, which is a function of natural order and survival. Like it or not, morality in humans and in the animal kingdom, is at its roots, pure evolution.

This was posted as a reaction to seeing the liberal biased media attack Dr Ben Carson on his religious views. It's annoying to see humanist cite evolution in an attempt to discredit religious belief when if these same humanist actually understood evolution they would have no recourse as rational intelligent beings but to abandon their humanist beliefs. They obviously don't understand the implications of evolution for humanist or they are not rational intelligent beings. If all reality is just the end result of a purely random accidental process there is no reason for liberal humanist to get righteously outraged about anything. ( was going to say no need to get their panties all bunched up but they already pulled some of my posts because of some angry liberal who couldn't find an argument to counter this and did' the stomp her feet on the ground and cried till it was removed' play)

Thebpriblem with your philosophy is assuming all liberals are Atheist and mixing that up with Scientology. And insinuating that by knowing emotions are caused by chemical reactions inside the body means that they don't matter. You can love your fellow man and still see the importance in not being an asshole while simultaneously understanding that its a chemical reaction. "Because science" doesn't negate the validity and importance of our human emotions, just explains it. Also I know several Christian Liberals... I am a pagan and I find myself agreeing more with liberal arguments than conservative ones (though let me be clearer I don't affiliate myself as either. I'm an independent mind who knows what I want to see in my leadership and I know where I stand on most issues.)

Your problem is, as LCDR Mucahey put it: generalization and grouping of masses of people. It is a label but that doesnt mean that label is strictly defined to one stereotype that you have set in your mind.

It's is addressed to liberal humanist who are athiest. If you are a liberal Christian,Muslim, or Jew it doesn't apply because you would believe in a God who was involved in our creation. Scientology is not included in anyway in this argument. ..it's simply those who believe in a purely accidental creation are hypocritical to derive meaning from this accidental existence and those who believe otherwise can make claims about human rights and purpose.
