>implying that there is such thing as evil Prime example of my point. Moral nihilists see no problem with raping and mutilating an innocent person, because morality has no intrinsic value, therefore making it no different than giving her a pat on the back and a compliment. Why do they do it? Because they believe themselves to be so intelligent that they are above morality. The funny thing is how my enemy feels the need to point out "inherent pointlessness". so moral nihilists are rapists? stop being so hyperbolic. i think you seriously misunderstand moral nihilism if you think it's anything about being above morality. your enemy..? weren't you complaining about the polarization of these forums like a page ago? and there's a difference between having a psychological compulsion to post and a desire to post. edit: gonna go a bit off topic with the whole moral nihilist rapes an innocent person (which is funny that you should include "innocent", because that suggests that the converse, that is to rape a non-innocent person, would not be offensive to you). moral nihilists do not say "there is nothing wrong with raping an innocent person". they say, "there is nothing INERENTLY moral, one way or the other, with raping an innocent person". obviously they do see a problem with it, here are just a few: social stigma of being a rapist loss of freedom (imprisonment) loss of potential dollars earned (because you were imprisoned) harder to get a job
