Re: Subjective & Objective

*I've brought this over from the Civilization & Culture folder, under the Topic "The Martian Dead":

CLARK:  What you demonstrated is that the objective things the doctor writes down are the MEASURABLE things. Value systems are not measurable, and thus not objective.

*Yes, values CAN be measured:  By the consequences they bring about, what sort of "fruit" they bear, etc.  Look where Hitler's "values" led he and his regime; look at the consequences.

CLARK:  Tell me how we can MEASURE "good" and "bad" objectively.

*I just did:  The consequences which result a value system; what follows in the wake of the value system.

Bite me, Clark.  big_smile
