No, just their moralizing. If the backbone of your moral pronunciation isn’t at an appeal to some eternal truth, then just stay home with it. Watching you moralize, would be as cringey as that Gillette commercial, as watching Sam Harris give a Ted Talk on the Moral Landscape.

An atheists will always be moved by a strong moral sermon of the religious, while they lack the strength to do so themselves, it’s more sickly pleas, than prophetic calls to repentance.

How does appealing to a god bolster anyone's moralizing exactly? Saying that killing is wrong because God ... does not make sense to me.
