    Well if you ask that to an atheist than because there’s no god that moral injustice no longer exists because an atheist sees that moral injustice as a religious moral injustice that only God believers see. The religious moral injustice being disrespecting life after death.

    ☝🏻 However, anyone sane would see an animal alive or dead and know that it’s wrong to fuck an animal.

      The disconnect here is that many atheists were former theists so their core beliefs are rooted in religion and they have difficulty separating the two.

      The reality is that for atheists there is no such thing as morality. Things are not inherently right or wrong. A theists might ask if it’s morally wrong to have sex with roadkill but a true atheist would simply ask why would you even do that? Atheism is understanding that actions don’t really have meaning they only have consequences. You can choose to do anything but you have to reckon with those consequences.

      This is where theists get hung up. “If nothing matters why wouldn’t I just rob everyone I meet and have sex with everything?” They can’t fathom the idea of deciding for themselves because they would have to accept that no matter the outcome they made the choice and can’t shift blame to the man in the clouds.

      In short it’s not wrong to fuck a dead deer, it’s just gross.

      Omg you may be right… Is there really no other source of the stigma other than personal faith-based beliefs?.. The social moral rule not to fuck a dead animal clearly stems from the religious one, and/or diseases contracted resulting in a rule based on the need for good health… But “Don’t, you might die” is far different from the more common “Don’t, it’s wrong”… Wow I spent far too long analysing this

        Ikr it’s pretty fucked up. It took me a day to come to that conclusion. I was like they have to know that fucking an animal is wrong nmw, in any state of being, so what else could there be and then I’m like you know what there’s a disconnect here because of the no God thing so what does it matter if there’s no God because of its no longer a sin to fuck an animal and to them that would mean any state of being so like… I guess in a fucked up way yeah it would come down to the semantics of the situation. That is, if you were to equate basic human common sense, to religious morals and guidance on how to exist as a better being rather than being decisive.

        Like it’s fucked up but I can get where that individual drew that conclusion from; Yet, I’m still hoping no matter what that they know that fucking an animal in any state of being, is wrong.

        Man this is so fucked up to talk about 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Don’t Buddhists use a similar loop hole to eat meat? In theory, they shouldn’t be killing and eating animals because of the non-violence. But if they launder it via some other hunter, that’s fine.

    I agree, but I’ll also say it’s immoral if you have a conflict of interest. Such as if you paid a friend to run it over.

    I view fucking an animal and voring an animal the same way: If it was going to die anyway, it’s okay. If you’re paying for it to die needlessly, you’re evil.

          Meat consumption definitely requires death and meat consumers are absolutely the reason for said death.

          Granted it isn’t murder, because that has additional meaning that requires personhood, but it is absolutely still death, no question.

            Yeah. Personally, I don’t believe in personhood, it seems poorly defined. Actually, there’s this game I really like the way it tackles personhood. You play as a robot, and you get to debate philosophy with a computer. The computer probes you on your beliefs, and at one point tries to ad absurdum you into agreeing that frogs are people. I forget exactly what the arguments are, especially since you can choose a few different things to argue. But it’s really neat, because you’re a robot debating what it means to be a person; who we as a society should extend personhood to. Personally, I said that frogs are people in My first playthrough. And in the sequel, there’s this throwaway joke about how the “are frogs people” debate topic has been banned from the online forums. And I think that’s great! Evidently, the NPCs really got into the weeds on that one!

            So yeah, I think personhood is an iffy construct and I don’t personally identify with it. I’m no person. I reject the very system that would grant Me special status for conforming to its notions of political life. So I don’t think murder has much to do with personhood.

            Oh, and historically, “person” just means a human body. You know, “it’s nice to meet you in person.” Letters and phone calls don’t count, because as minds sending messages over the wire, we’re not people. People are human bodies, according to our vestigial linguistics. What a load of bullshit.

              I understand your philosophical argument, but imo the moment you compare running over a frog to hitting a child with your car, personhood becomes real obvious.

              And frankly, I don’t feel the need for some air-tight philosophical package to claim it. Species-based tribalism is, in fact, sufficient cause to me.

        The trolley problem is one of those philosophical questions where you’re not supposed to actually think about it in the context of a real world situation. Because the obvious solution to the trolley problem is to yell “look out for the speeding trolley, why you standing still in the road you idiot?”

        But generally they don’t accept that answer.

        I’m convinced that one of the main reasons that people don’t really like philosophy is because it’s full of got you trick questions like that

          Well the trolley problem is at its heart a metaphor for the exercise of power and the responsibility of decision makers. It works fine for that.

          However as a meme on the internet its always more of a cute ‘got you’ question which is why its worth murdering the metaphor. And the trolley too. Metaphorically.

    I mean there’s a lot of arguments for the act to be wrong that have nothing to do with any god. Most believers will reach for consequence or virtue themselves.

    1. Allowing people to fuck animals, alive or dead, may normalize the behavior. Fucking animals is a high risk activity. Allowing you to fuck an animal may indirectly cause someone to get sick. You could even become patient zero for a zoonotic plague, in which case you could hurt a lot of people.
    2. Behavior so far outside the shared moral framework is corrosive. In doing somethig so radically taboo you damage the fabric of society. We, as inhabitants and builders of society, have a moral obligation to uphold rules that allow polite society to function. Rules like “don’t fuck dead animals”.
    3. Do you really wanna be the kinda guy that can honestly say he’s fucked a dead deer? Engaging in deviant behavior erodes your dignity and makes it more likely for you to continue to behave antisocially in the future.

        Yes. It’s ok. It says a LOT about the person doing it though.

        Just like you CAN stand on the street corner and shout about flat earth and aliens. But it says a lot about you and we judge you for it.

        And let’s be real. If you’re okay with intentionally killing a cow to then cut it up, jam it in your face hole and swallow, how can you be against accidentally killing a deer and not cutting it up, and using its hole instead. Let’s be consistent folks.

        Because space is cool and we’re never gonna get to dyson spheres by pontificating on the morality of fucking an animal’s corpse.

        Just a genuinely fucking stupid topic. Apparently I was right, there are people who need Christianity to keep them from fucking dead animals. You’d think that declaring themselves atheist means that they reasoned themselves into the position but no, no for these people ‘atheist’ means free ticket to fuck dead animals with no shame.

    Fucking a dead deer is just as immoral and dangerous as fucking a live one. Their bodies will still be host to a variety of potentially dangerous infectious diseases that may cross the species divide and become human-transmissible. This is a threat to your own health as well as public health.

        Immoral: morally wrong, or outside society’s standards of acceptable, honest, and moral behaviour

        I argue that with the knowledge of it being dangerous and potentially a serious risk factor for an epidemic or pandemic it is indeed immoral. Not to mention that it is probably, if not definitely, outside most societies standards of acceptable.

        In a sense, yes.
        Leviticus 5:2 condones touching a dead creature:
        ‘Or if a person touches any unclean thing, whether it is the carcass of an unclean beast, or the carcass of unclean livestock, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and he is unaware of it, he also shall be unclean and guilty.

        Relevant note that doesn't include deer

        Leviticus 11:29-31 states that “creeping” creatures result in uncleanliness, but only until evening, so unless “evening” is an abstract term meaning “nearing the end of your life”, you’re only gross until tomorrow:
        ‘These also shall be unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth: the mole, the mouse, and the large lizard after its kind; the gecko, the monitor lizard, the sand reptile, the sand lizard, and the chameleon. These are unclean to you among all that creep. Whoever touches them when they are dead shall be unclean until evening.

        And the passages that mention sex with a creature, regardless of a heartbeat, include Leviticus 18:23. And as a bonus, their god is said to be talking to Moses with the intention of passing the message to all Israelites, it also slanders men being gay in the previous line (but as this was also to be delivered to women, I guess this implies rather that sexual acts suitable for a woman partner should never be done with a male partner.) :
        22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. 23 Nor shall you mate with any animal, to defile yourself with it. Nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it. It is perversion.

          It seems to say you would be unclean to touch a dead animal. That means you need to take a bath and wait until evening to be clean again. No harm, no foul.

          And Christians can always pull out their get out of jail card, “Jesus fulfilled the law so OT rules don’t apply.”

          So I think only true Christians could morally have sex with a dead deer.

            I think this is before the invention of soap, so being ritually unclean meant that other people aren’t allowed to touch you for a certain number of days (and then you need to offer a sacrifice in the temple or something), or in some cases like touching a leper, the priest has to examine you at the end of the unclean period to declare you clean.

(Western editions) Translated multiple times - (roughly) Hebrew ‘Torah’ (the ‘Nevi’im’ and ‘Ketuvim’ came later) to Greek ‘Septuagint’ then to Old Latin ‘Vetus Latina’, then revised using the ‘Septuagint’ and translated directly from the ‘Hebraica Veritas’ to make the ‘Vulgate’, and into modern languages (true English, French, and German originally) ‘Bible’ by multiple groups;
            3. As well as many translators there are countless individuals who either evangelise or simply read for themselves, each with their own unique interpretation of every verse;

            makes me suspect that every single translation has some error, and because I cannot read Hebrew I’ll never truly know. Even what used to be the most trusted digital translator, Google Translate, now uses AI to interpret and adjust the wording, making the translate service more useless than it already was. FWIW, whenever I need to consult the English Bible I prefer the King James Version (1769 revision, not the NKJV), not only because I love the language style, and that it is in a language I can read, but it is translated into English from Hebrew (Old Testament), Latin (Apocrypha) and Greek (New Testament), and in my opinion if there are deviations from the Hebrew ‘Masoretic Text’, the KJV will have less errors than others.

            A good read of the women involved in one translation: Paula and the Latin Vulgate

            It’s heavily disputed whether those translations are more accurate rather than just reading nuance where none exists. Some translations also interpret it as specifically about pedophilia, but again, they may or may not be more accurate than simply translating it as all M/M sex.

              Meh, even if taken literally from the king james translation, doesn’t matter much since it’s old testament. One can shift the meaning to whatever they want.

        The Bible includes passages that condone murdering a cheating wife, so maybe don’t use that as your yardstick.

    I’m going to take this shit post seriously for some reason. Sometimes people confuse morality with practicality. Or associate ick factor with immorality, or even things associated with something gross with immorality. Yet, they are all related for a reason.

    We have an inherent revulsion to fucking dead things. This is because dead things spread diseases, and therefore we instinctually avoid it. Also culturally it is disrespectful and gross. Practically, it is best to decide as a society to not allow that, and shun people who do it. If you practice safe sex with the corpse, and nobody legitimately knows or is hurt by this action, is it morally acceptable? Maybe, but what are truly the chances of a freak who would fuck a corpse wearing a condom because he’s concerned for future sexual partners? If he is a necrophiliac, what are the chances that this wouldn’t extend to killing to achieve this, or stealing bodies, which would be traumatic for the people related to the people whose bodies he acquired? If he is wired differently and doesn’t get this ick factor from fucking dead things the way regular humans do, either his brain is a little messed up, he has gone through some traumatic,personality changing experiences, or he has specifically sought our to desensitize himself from shame. Do you want to trust such a person in society? Or correct deviant behaviors before they become a problem. There’s a lot more context than a specific example in a vacuum.

    Incidentally, this is what some people don’t get about pedophilia/related philias. An ex girlfriend of mine once had a discussion with me that people were obsessed with age gaps online. While true, I didn’t agree with her because she went on to say “when I was a teenager, I remember going to a concert for my favorite band and wishing I could fuck the lead singer. If that had happened, I would have been happy and still talk about it today, not yap about how it was abuse.” And yeah, maybe, in that instance, it would have been fine. Or maybe he would have pulled a Steve Tyler and became her legal guardian so he could fuck her all the time and been abusive and controlling, and derailed her future by taking her out of school and on tour with him and getting her pregnant then leaving. Is it POSSIBLE to have someone underage consent? Maybe (and a big maybe at that) but really what are the chances that it is a completely healthy and fulfilling relationship that will be positive for both people in the long run? Stigmatizing inappropriate age gap relationships only benefits society. 18 is an arbitrary line, to be sure. Is 17 or 16 OK? Multiple developed countries think so. 15? Not so sure, maybe focus on the actual size of the age gap there, which most countries do. But at some point we have to draw the line as a society to just say “no, sexual activity with this child is not allowed” to not allow for abuse of trust, because kids don’t know what is best for them and what they want yet. And is it then morally wrong to violate what society has decided the arbitrary line is? Yes, at least in most cases. Legal does not mean moral, but to completely disregard society is not a way humans are meant to live.

    This nuance is hard for people to understand. Even in organized religion, where God presumably has all the “right” answers, there is not always an absolute answer. In Christianity, Paul for example writes to focus on doing what’s right for the most amount of people, and not flexing your “rights” on others even if it bothers others. Mysteriously, this part of the bible tends to not be remembered, and religious people instead veer towards absolutism.

    Please don’t fuck dead things. You will likely get an infection. No one else wants to put up with your infected silly bad decisions. That’s the morality of it.
