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?

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.
