Yes, that's exactly what I said. ::
Quote:"Now perhaps religious beliefs have some special quality to motivate people into actions, that non-religious beliefs are incapable of inspiring or replacing. Like motiving people to fly planes into building, or sacrifice their life for a worthy cause like the Civil Rights movement, or abolitionism. But the idea of such motivating capacity is exclusive to immoral actions, is more a product of your cognitive dissonance and confirmation bias than anything else."

If the requirement is only a requirement of a subset of moral realism and not of the whole class of moral realism then it isn't a requirement of moral realism. You really suck at this thinking thing, don't you?
Judging that you accused me of defending flying planes into buildings, I don't think it's matter of poor thinking on my part, but an incapacity to read on yours.
