Bullshit. there are plenty of reasons to be 'moral' without fear of punishment.
Being a nice person is one.
Fear of punishment is only a deterent to people who would be immoral anyway
And who gets to decide what is moral any way?
Religious countries always go overboard making stupid shit immoral like homosexuality.
Why is it immoral for same sex people to screw each other, each to their own as far as i'm concerened.
I can see why girlysprite thinks you are a poe, theists tend to think the fear of punishment is the origin of morality more than atheists because atheists tend to know better.
morality is subjective and thus does not exist in terms of reality.
i am sure hitler considered himself to be a nice person, thats the folly of saying
EVERYONE thinks they are a nice person.. it is a survival mechanism.
cognitive dissonance
everyone has their own set of "morality"-- there is no universal morality.. just what you "feel" to be "right" or "wrong" ... if morality exists then GOD exists.. for GOD is simply something people create in their minds.. and thus so is MORALITY.
clear this up I AM NOT A FUCKING THEIST.
“[O]ur moral judgments and evaluations…are only images and fantasies based on a physiological process unknown to us” Niezt
just as god is a fantasy, so is morality. like i said earlier.. there are those who are stepped on and those who doing the stepping.. make a choice.
