Show you can understand an argument and I show you more inshallah.

I didn't assert God exists so far. I showed morality is eternal and it has been eternally perceived by reasoning that it cannot be in any hypothetical possible world that a possible creator creates morality out of nothing. I showed why, and you are being rather silly like making it I had to assume God exists for the argument to make sense. That's being dishonest to the argument.


When did you show that morality is eternal? All I've ever seen you do is assert it.

The best minds in philosophical thought debate morality, and there is no consensus. And you, some random forum poster, have solved it.

I don't think so.

Believe me, we all understand your arguments. Better than you do actually, because we are able to point out the fallacies and flaws that you obviously miss.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
