You are right in speaking of the moral foundations of science, but you cannot turn round and speak of the scientific foundations of morality. Amoral is as if the Nazi’s were evil or not, or is murder really morally wrong, or why is rape morally reprehensible?
Rereading this, I am not sure you understand definition of amoral.

That is the stupidest thing you have said so far! No one is looking to you for answers. Your ideas are being challenged.
Oh how he suffers for our salvation.

Not to mention that studies show consistently that those who know the bible best are atheists, followed by mormons

It is cool that you want to study and learn more about atheistic thinking; however, I'm afraid the part in bold may come off to some as objectifying atheists rather than seeing them as people, which could impede your progress in establishing any kind of meaningful dialog with the atheist community here.
If I may, I have a question for you, sir. Have you come here with an open-mind, or are you here to confirm pre-existing stereotypes concerning atheism? IMO, if you engage AF with an open-mind, then you may find that there are plenty of people here who are kind, respectful, and intelligent. IMO, when interacting with people in certain contexts, their behavior, whether friendly or hostile, could be a direct result of how we handle the situation.
With that said, I wish you luck in your endeavors, sir. Thank you for your time and attention. Live long and prosper.
Oh man, I love this guy. Definitely getting my vote for best new member.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

And yet Jesus says (Matthew 5:18) that the law of Moses - in which the approved stoning of rebellious children is made explicit - still applies: For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
. So, stoning naughty children still applies.
Thus, any parent who did NOT offer their children up to be stoned to death for disobedience was a sinner.
Nice theology you've got yourself, there.

So nice of you Boru and the others with the scripture knowledge to trade points with our xtian visitors. It is one area of ignorance for which I have no regrets.

Can't help myself - they kind of thump that into you over 12 (horrifying) years of Catholic school. In point of fact, I won more than one award for Scripture memorization.

Yeah it's like Beccs said about atheists averaging a greater knowledge of the bible than true believers. Sorry about holding down our average. It is a testimony to you all that you can float me.
