Morality doesn't need to be intellectualised

If you need to stop and think about it, that's not morality

Real morals are instinctive

Real morals come from our genes

Morals can't come from a book

Morals can't be taught

@soundwave but moral itself is a branch of social knowledge and social knowledge is subjective

@deesapoetra

Morals can be described and written down, yes. But a person can be moral without ever reading them

An immoral person can act in a moral way, and know that it is moral, without ever having been taught which is which.

@soundwave well. Hopefully people will change in the future to develop and use a mathematical model for moral since it wayyyy more "just".

This is why I think Dr Mann in Interstellar was not wrong. He was much, much smarter than everyone else, his rationalising was flawless.

He was not a coward, but his actions made him appear to be one, from the point of view of an outsider who hadn't done the same calculations that he did

I mean, he was not wrong, he was just an asshole.
