Objective morality as a proper basic belief

How would you know what an intelligent conversation is?  

Quote:There is a big difference, in claiming, that there is "some connection" between harm and morals, and claiming that they are the basis for it.Which is it, that you are claiming to be the axiom?   I also notice a connection between humans and morality.   And while we at it, can you confirm exactly what statement or premise, that you are claiming to be axiomatic?  While your rhetoric and sophism game may be good (i assume that is the "game" you where referring to earlier), many words, is not a substitute for substance and logical thinking.
In my experience, people complain about sophism when they've been completely stymied.  There's more than just "some connection", ofc, yet another example of your disingenuous nature.  The connection is inescapable and fundamental to all moral systems.  They all refer to harm.  I keep telling you that, we keep seeing how every example I offer, or you offer, or bob down the street offers....refers inexorably back to harm.  What is the -point- in attempting to maintain a disagreement on this? 

Quote:And if you don't want to have an intelligent conversation, and just want to shout down everything I say, without addressing it.  Fine, I look towards some smarter atheist to reason with.
I'm "shouting" because your posts indicate a person who is hard of hearing.  Your questions have been answered, ad naus.  Your objections have been coopted ad naus.  You have nothing intelligent to say on the subject of morality, objective or otherwise.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
