If humans are just compositions of trillions of molecules moving through space, how do ethics or religion mean anything?

>how do ethics or religion mean anything?
They don't. If you're religious in the modern-age you must have brain damage.
>>24724974
I see you're a bit of a skeptic
fuck this bait
>>24724913
they don't, ethics are just a way to prevent people from inflicting maximum pain on each other as our sadistic genetics demand us to do.
>>24724974
Keep listening to the men in the long flowing robes as they proselytize from scripts you don't understand.
>>24724913
Because those molecules come together to form conscious human beings with thoughts & feelings.
Fuck I hate this stupid "bro we're star dust so nothing matters!!!" trash thought.

>If humans are just compositions of trillions of molecules moving through space
They aren't. The supernatural is very real.

How does that change anything. I don't understand, that doesn't change that there are conscious people hurting and suffering.
I'm not even sure what point you are trying to make up, most likely you have already decided those two don't mean anything, and are trying to find some way to justify it to other people.
ey yo bro how can ya say this shits from ya mom is tasty
its just a composition of disgusting cheese molecules and other atoms.
how can ya say that this brings memeorys to ya mind yo faggot

I know right? You are literally denying your existence, literally.
If you make this claim, maybe you aren't conscious at all, that would explain it.
>>24725174
It isn't necessary to call it supernatural, you and I both experience qualia independent fundamental to our selves every day, its what makes us us and constitutes what we call reality.
The atoms and all that are just observations and inferences made from looking deeper into nature, but all observations are still made by the same consciousness that we are.

>that doesn't change that there are conscious people hurting and suffering.
Define "hurting and suffering"
Molecules don't suffer.
>>24725256
I've come to the conclusion that you don't experience subjective things like I do, so I can't explain it to you.

Sadistic genetics? Weird. I'm naturally nice as a reaction. Maybe you are just an asshole.
