Greetings.
I recently attended a debate, theists vs atheists on "Can there be good without God?"
Questions were taken from the floor at the end. One attendee stated that if the atheists were only willing to argue subjective good, they were giving the debate to the theists.
While I agree this would likely have seen the theists win on points, it was neither picked up by them, nor was the debate formal enough to see either side declared winners.
Can atheists argue for an objective ethics?
Comments?
