The best moral theories incorporate both logic and empathy. For example “what happens to society if everyone did this” + “don’t use people” = Kant. 

It’s pretty interesting that there’s probably a neurological basis for both aspects of morality. Mirror neurons may be what gives us the empathy portion of morality (or the capacity for it). 

Now I’m stuck in an information gathering hole about the neurological basis of logical thinking 😂

In the upcoming Christian theocracy it will be broadly understood that this is reflective of our Creator who wired us for both Logos + Love 😜

Yes I know 
Christians are stupid, God isn’t real, everything is downstream of fee fees and we are just flesh bags worshiping a fake and gay Sky Daddy 
But I couldn’t resist nonetheless

Because I’d rather be an asshole than a second class citizen, or someone who gets set on fire…

Under such circumstances, ironically, I would become far less moral. Augustine may have said faith can only be entered willingly, but the same isn’t true of church membership. If in a theocracy, I would immediately enter the ruling religion and operate within it in bad faith. There would be many such cases 😕
