Obviously, right and wrong, responsibility and irresponsibility--moral considerations--and all the oughts and the ought-nots...are subsumed and incorporated into my syllogism. Don’t be so bloody stupid. Once again: Science tells us the Nature of Reality in progressive stages of discovery. And Reality dictates how we ought to live...if our purpose is to live. Not too hard to understand for most people. But please feel free to jump out of a plane without a chute! Or pretend there was a flood that covered all the mountains and drowned everyone on earth-- etc. etc. etc. -g- "What "IS" cannot inform what "OUGHT" to be" Don't be such a Nimrod. Moral standards are derived from the nature of the world and from the nature of human beings. It would not do people or society or civilization much good to set behavioral expectations based on imaginary considerations rather than actual ones! LOL! You ought to eat plywood for breakfast. NOT!

LOL!! Exodus 9:3-6 3 Behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thy cattle which is in the field, upon the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels, upon the oxen, and upon the sheep: there shall be a very grievous murrain. OUCH!! 4 And the Lord shall sever between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt: and there shall nothing die of all that is the children's of Israel. 5 And the Lord appointed a set time, saying, To morrow the Lord shall do this thing in the land. 6 And the Lord did that thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt died: but of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one. 9 And it shall become small dust in all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast, throughout all the land of Egypt. 10 And they took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward heaven; and it became a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast. 11 And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boil was upon the magicians, and upon all the Egyptians. Exodus 12:12 OH NO! NOT AGAIN!! 12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the Lord. Exodus 14:9 OH NO! KILLED THEIR HORSES (TWICE)!!!...AND HERE THEY COME!!! 9 But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.
