The Objective Moral Values Argument AGAINST The Existence Of God

RE: The Objective Moral Values Argument AGAINST The Existence Of God
(May 1, 2018 at 11:25 pm)henryp Wrote: When theists say "If Objective Morals Exist, then God Exists."  And you go "Objective morals can exist without God."  If that's true, you don't need to say anything more.  The only thing left to 'argue' is whether or not your statement is true or not.
The rest, as far as a counterargument to divine contingency in moral realism is concerned, is multiplying propositions beyond necessity. I heard somewhere...from a real smart guy who's never wrong, that's a Bad Thing™.
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!
