Why does harm matter?
@HPluckrose
People will suffer. My moral premise of prioritising human wellbeing makes me oppose human suffering.

Right but so what if people suffer. What is the ontological value in trying to prevent that. So what if they do.
-
I've explained that my premise is that human wellbeing is paramount. Therefore I oppose human suffering.

This is based in my empathy & compassion. Doesn't matter if the universe doesn't care abt humans. Humans do.

If something bigger & more intelligent than humans said that torturing babies was moral, should I accept this?
-
I don't. I go with the core moral emotions unique to humans & value human life & wellbeing.
