I don't think many of us expect to do anything with a hyper-intelligent pony. I try not to, they seem... creepy. :p

I like moral nihilism, but only when it is used as a way to devise our own moral codes, rather than to ignore moral questions.


I am a Nihilist too... but Pitch Black just seems creepy. Exteme-nihilist, evil, talking pony. Also, if someone talks to me or interacts with me, like Hatter and the cute little villain, I will respond. Do you mind?

Well, Pitch Black does ironically has a moral code. Just a very self-centered one.

Not really. It's just not very fun for Pitch when he's at the other end of the shitstick.

I dreamt about fighting the Mexican army while sitting on a mountain commanding my army of dolphins. Then, I won and did my victory dance in my underwear and tank top, and then I ate a chocolate bar and got struck by lightning. I was mentally scarred, and that is way stranger.

I cried when I woke up.

The question of morality is fluid. There are a number of authors that believe in selfishness (egoism). Ayn Rand (while stupid) is one of the more prevalent ones in the public eye. It is technically a moral stance, just an unpopular one.

No, no, that is the opposite of Rand and probably Neitzche. Rand believed altruism was stupid, so she proffered selfishness. Specifically, it is known as rational egoism, but it is still stupid.

Well, if you wish to use science as a neutral third party, evolution and life dictate that whichever moral stance saves the most humans for reproduction is the best stance. So, sacrificing yourself to save two or more humans is the best outcome, and then letting someone else die to save yourself is the best outcome.
