Objective morality, if it exists, is pointless, arbitrary and has nothing to do with wellbeing except by coincidence.

This is a continual conflation between religious morality (what makes God happy or sad) and morality based on maximising wellbeing and minimising harm. You need to choose one definition and stick with it, not slide between them as convenient.

I'm gonna do a video on this soon, as to why religious morality is a redundant concept. I may look like an idiot but I sure can talk some crap and record it.
