Religion is a poor source of morality
#62
RE: Religion is a poor source of morality
Thank you Smile

I can't even understand what someone even means by objective morality, until they can give me some sort of real example.

To me, one of these always applies to talk of objective morality:

1) It's incoherent
2) It's actually subjective morality being called objective morality
3) It's of no practical use to anyone

The burden of proof is on anyone claiming morality is objective. That requires defining what the frag that phrase means (to me it's a contradiction in terms) then at the very least giving some actual examples. Surely that's not asking for too much.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.
