Yeah, it is the lovely thing about being an atheist, but it apparently doesn't matter. Christians have a tendency to be far worse people than we are, and a tendency to feel far less guilt about it.

It's annoying how you sit there and accuse us of not living up to a moral standard which only applies to individuals and then refuse to explain why you refuse to live up to your own, which applies to all Christians.

It's also annoying how some of you pretend to care about the sanctity of life, when you praise the wanton destruction of human life directed by your god; almost as annoying as how you insist that morality is objective, and then insist that it isn't because God doesn't have to follow the rules.

I've noticed a direct correlation between Icthys fish stickers, "Jesus loves you" bumper stickers, and the probability that person is going to cut you off while giving you the finger and narrowly avoid causing an accident.

I can't refuse to explain something I haven't been asked. If you're asking, I freely admit that I'm selfish and put my own desires above others' suffering. I wouldn't care that you guys do the same if you'd likewise admit it and quit bitching about the Amelekites. You don't give a rat's ass about suffering going on today. You surely don't care about people who lived and died thousands of years ago.

I did ask a question, in direct response to your post.

We wouldn't bitch about the Amalekites if you were consistent about holding God to the same standards (or higher) as you hold other people. If morality is objective, certain actions are always wrong. Period.

Sorry, but I don't see morality as objective.

That is because you are a slave to irrational subjectivity.

Yeah, we CPAs are known for our irrational subjectivity.

I've never seen a Christian say this.

Because he is not a Christian, first and foremost. He follows the religion of John V the alpha male, which adopts only the parts of Christianity which are convenient or desirable to the sole believer.

If I only adopted what's convenient, I'd accept evolution and gays in church.
