@pizzahut451:
To them it was true, and it was the most rational thing to do.
You don't seem to understand what rationality is.
The point of rationality is the that people get the best possible soulution out if it, But what one person think its the best way of thinking to solution, the other might differ. And thus if you beleive morals are subjective so are rational thoughts. Rationality is a tzpe of correct thingking, and when it comes to thinking every person has diffrent view on doing so.
Actually using the rational method all people should come to the same conclusion. There's nu subjectivity involved, because rational thinking is a process that requires following strict rules.
Ugh, what the hell? How did I misunderstood him. I used him as an example to show that there are more types of rationality,and belief value system is one of them. What is there to understand? Its not a rocket science.
So you admit that you didn't undertsand what he said.
Why dont you tell me if you know?
And make your life easier? No.
Well, I hardly see what this has to do with our discussion, but it makes your first time a lot more special and better, especially if you beleive in that moral on yourself.
If you take into consideration all variables there's no guarantee that it will be either more special or better. All these depend on prefrences of the person. The last part is circular logic.
We disagree, there is not way to know this. Lets end it there.
OK, cover your ears and go LALALALALA.
He sure was some delusional paranoic person to convince over 60 million people to follow him, huh? He had his way of rational thinking and logic. His version rational thoughts to the solution of the jewish problem and his idea was widely accepted back than.
Widely accepted by whom? The period when Hitler rose to power was perfect for the type of leader he was: the charismatic dictator. Post WWI the German economy had plundered, people were living in poverty and disillusioned, and then came Hitler promising to save them and make Germany more powerful then ever. He even created a skapegoat, the Jews (a population that for centuries was persecuted in Germany thanks to Christian thought). There was no "Jewish problem", which makes all of Hitler's arguments irrational. And the fact that he managed to manipulate people and get his ideeas "widely accepted" in no way validate them or make them rational. Something isn't rational because you want it to be.
Actually, it hasnt been proved false so you cant call it false. Give me evidence of God being false, than I ll believe you
Not only have the peopel making such claims never been able to offer evidence, they also have never ben able to present any reasons why one should think such an entity exists. I have no reason to think your deity exists, and the best evidence I can provide of it's non-existence is the fact that there's nothign to suggest otherwise.
