But whats moral? Who is anyone to decide what is and isntt moral to everyone else? Your not born with morals. You gain your morals through experiences, the people around you and to an extent the goverment. What some cultures/countries find immoral other may not. For example, look at the age of concent laws around the world. If I as a 26 year old slept with a 16 year old here in america, id be labled a pervert, criminal and sick. Yet fly across to some european(maybe even most) countries and it wouldnt be a problem. Same with drinking ages. Im assuming your from america(didnt look), but if you are and say you were raised in even canada, your views on some things may be totally different.
And how are nihilist sadistic? Maybe you dont know the meaning of the word sadistic. Ted Bundy is someone I would label as sadistic. Im surely not out to hurt anyone.
My hands, my smile. Food, and shelter for all. Morality was all I thought of as a child. The act of writing morality, is a moral act. To sit there and wine, and bother is immoral.
Morals are natural law, bro.Your not born with morals.
Not for them to decide. Rape can not possibly be moral.What some cultures/countries find immoral other may not.

So has this thread turned into a debate on moral relativism yet? Seems like every philosophical discussion eventually ends up there.
I think Nihilism is basically just pessimistic existentialism. Whoever came up with the concept deserves the same sort of praise as the guy who came up with the "pet rock" toys.
I think the conclusion nihilists draw are just absolutely nuts, but the premises are decent an i subscribe at least partly to them.
Meaning and purpose of life, The only objective purpose is to reproduce to keep live going. Everything else is meaning we try to attribute to life, either through religion or philosophy, therefor there is no real objective purpose or meaning of live.
Morals exist but they are no natural laws, they emerged out of necessity, social creatures need something that governs social interaction and societies need a moral base to stand upon (agreeable behavior of individuals in a group context). But Morals change depending on the times and societies. It's also a learned trait no one is born with morals.
Reality doesn't exist. Our perception distorts "reality", but since we have only our perception we have to assume that this is reality.
Really agree with this post, especially the bolded.
Imagine if we only could perceive things in a 2-dimensional way, or maybe even a 4-dimensional way, would completely change reality itself.
It's possible other beings could see things this way so their reality is one entirely different from ours. Their brains could process information in a completely different way, leading to a difference in perception and therefore reality.
Just fun to think about![]()
^kind of like how colors are perceived by the brain. What if my green isn't your green?

Nihilism? There's nothing to it.
1 Kings 11:3: “He (Solomon) had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines, and his wives led him astray.” -- Biblical marriage. One man, seven hundred women.
