Where do atheists get their morality from?
|
My favourite name for God is "nonexistent".
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I have just done Ryaans job for him, with the help of polaris. There you go then if your argument stands that all morality comes from religion because atheists may occasionally use a phrase that has a religious origin, it also stands that the religion it comes from is one that does not have anything to do with a christian god, so therefore nothing comes from a christian god. 
My morality is based entirely on the Non Aggression principal. I do not initiate pain on someone else or take their property. I certainly don;t use some tax to justify me doing just that.
I do everything on the basis of voluntary exchange. I am also a vegan for that reason. (September 8, 2012 at 11:15 pm)Puddleglum Wrote: My morality is based entirely on the Non Aggression principal.

If I ever survive a plane crash in a mountain pass where to survive we are forced to eat each other, I hope to have some vegans on board.

But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
