Hey, so, you're doing that thing again, the thing you promised me you wouldn't, where you assume the shape of the person's beliefs in your questions and responses to them. It feels an awful lot like you're reading from a script and aren't actually interested in what we really think, more than you are in your preconceived notions, and that's not an honest way to go about this. Instead of telling us what we believe, how about you ask, let us respond, and then tailor your answers to what we've actually said, rather than what you want us to have said?

Because I'll give you a hint: I'm an atheist, and I don't believe that morality is relative. In fact, I believe in objective morality, to a certain extent. See what happens, when you listen rather than just go down your script?

Incidentally, can you tell me one way in which an objective morality can be formed or known without recourse to gods (who are subjects) or unevidenced supernatural nothings? Because if all you're doing is positing a "superior" moral framework that can't actually exist, then you're in no way helping your case.
