I think you should read more about human evolution and how our brains developed. Moral feelings did not appear out of nowhere, they evolved because empathy, cooperation, and protecting others helped conscious social beings survive. As i already mentioned... the fact that morality comes from a brain shaped by evolution does not make it meaningless. Our ability to reason also comes from our brains, but that doesn't make logic an illusion.

Comparing morality to logic actually proves the point. Naturalistic evolution canβt ground logic either, it only explains why a brain believes something, not why a law of logic is true everywhere, always, for everyone. Same problem, just moved.
Survival explains what your brain does. It doesnβt explain why anyoneβs obligated to follow it. Youβre still borrowing binding, universal categories your worldview has no basis for producing.
I don't know why you're bothering. Those religious fanatics are never going to see beyond what they've been taught. They've been indoctrinatedβthat's just how it is. If they'd been indoctrinated to believe in fairy tales, they'd believe those just as blindly. It's a complete waste of time.
Youβre confusing βnot supernaturalβ with βnot real.β Our brains evolved to understand reality, not just survive. Morality comes from conscious experience... suffering is real because someone actually experiences it. Adding a supernatural layer doesnβt automatically make it more valid.... we can go on like this till tomorrow but future will disprove the religion and all this so called Gods. Im out of this convo. Have a nice day. Believe what you want. Try conviencing a crocodile to Believe in God... β¨οΈπ₯³π
You seem very knowledgeable about the theory of evolution. Have you read Darwin?
This is very tiring... im not interested in further discussions πβ¨οΈπ₯³
