RE: Voluntaryism

People cannot govern themselves therefore we need to have a group of people govern people.

Im reminded of a quote... It's not that power corrupts, but power attracts the corruptable.
You see normal, moral people don't want to tell others how to live, or what to do. We just want to live our lives. People who want that power can't be trusted with it. It should be pretty obvious with the direction government is heading.

Sort:  

The concept of morality itself is telling others how to live. Pushing for anarchy is telling others how they should live.

Morality isn't telling others how to live. Morality is not infringing upon the life, freedom, or property of another. Pushing for anarchy is defensively going against those who limit the aforementioned within your own life.

This is literally you telling me how to live in order to be moral.

No, I'm explaining the concept. The definition.

For example:
Take the definition of the word "walk" : "an act of traveling or an excursion on foot".
That is not "telling you how to live in order to walk". It is simply explaining the act.

Defining morality is not the concept of "telling people how to live".

The concept of the words, "preach" , "advocate", "promote", and "advise" are much more
accurate representations of the concept of "Telling people how to live."

The concept of morality I explained doesn't reflect those concepts.
Morality isn't based on conveying a message.
