As I have said his explanation fares no better
atheist -Why are gods attributes good
Theist- Because there gods attributes
Atheist -Why should I care about gods commands
Theist - Because there based on gods nature
Atheist Why should I think gods nature is maximally great
Theist because it's gods nature
And on and on
As for his notion that desires are not a basis for morality . That's just dumb . Desires and goals are a primary motivator to morality to deny there role is just idiotic.
Bullshit wanna who disagrees with you HUME
The is ought fallacy was a criticism of people like you
As Richard Carrier rightly points out

As Richard Carrier rightly points out
Quote:The only time he is quoted ever saying anything that sounds otherwise, he was speaking of religious moralists who don’t link the ought to an is about desire—he was not saying you can’t get an ought from an is, rather, he was saying you can, and that it is therefore a failure of those moralists that they don’t. He then goes on to explain what they should be doing to correctly derive an ought from an is
