Why is rape wrong?

You could argue when Laws were/ are created it is based on similar subjective reasoning. This does not change the fact for society to function some things have to be considered wrong. Its easiest when they are wrong.

Exactly.

Brings us no closer to the 'why', though.

I find that an odd state of affairs, hence the thread.

Yes, and why are those things considered wrong? What makes them wrong?

Please, for the sake of my faith in humanity, answer.

People need to feel "Safe", we have created a framework to support the individual and his/ her sense of self, it could be argued although I do not want to, our perception of right and wrong stems from the framework and need to protect self. The way self fits into society.

You said things have to be and are, considered wrong.

What makes things 'wrong'?

Just answer it. If you can't, say so and leave. If you don't want to make the effort to, say so and leave.

Their is no right answer to this, some believe its the rules of society, others believe its Kharma or set down laws of god. Some believe its harm to a group collective conciousness.

I believe if you do wrong to others you are doing wrong to yourself.

Right, so seeing as we're discussing what YOU believe. You say that if you do wrong to others, you are doing wrong to yourself.

What is 'wrong' to you? Not to others. To you. Why are things wrong, to you? What makes you decide if something is wrong?

If I lost you back there, the key here is: When you decide something is wrong, WHY do you reach that conclusion?

If you don't answer this time. I'll assume you don't know.

Please don't assume anything, the thread starter said my point was exact, I think your asking because you don't know. Thats ok though as I answerd this particular question a while back in my opinion, obviously not in yours though which is why this is a forum and things are subjective. My ideas as I stated earlier are no more valid than yours, and yours no more valid than mine.

can I ask you why do you sign it

-AC when you have a sig and avy?

Are you trying to prove something? or am I "wrong"

I suspect you have lots of detractors here and I am not going to engage with you further, I cannot work out if you are trolling or not.

bored now - bye

He also said it brings us no closer to the 'why', which is what I am continually having to ask you to explain and that which you continually avoid explaining.

I'll ask you simply and civilly again:

"When you decide something is wrong, WHY do you reach that conclusion?"

Not what conclusion do you reach, but why do you reach it?

Answer it or failure to do so will suggest that your opinion is not as valid as mine, since you have dodged a question more times than I can count.

Isn't it suppose to be Sp Ed

Cause people don't want rape/murder/robbery/whatever, so if someone doesn't want something, and that person doesn't deserve wrongs inflicted upon him/her, then it's wrong, cause all good people are equal and one's will does not supercede another's unless extenuating circumstances are invlolved in the difficult situation.

What makes it 'wrong' though?

I will not dignify that question with an answer 😐

You dignified it with a response, the least you could do was make it a relevent one.

The sheer level of ignorance in this forum is depressing. Don't reply, simple.

The purpose of the thread is to find out why people see certain things as wrong. Simple as that.
