The "meter" is an invented term to measure a length between two points. You could just as easily use "yards" or "quetroploxes" that they use on the planet Fnorb. Distance is objectively the same regardless of what measurement system you use.
Contrast with your claim about God and your unit of measure of "good". You can't prove your god exists nor can you offer any evidence to substantiate your claim that this god is the measure of goodness. At least I can present the yardstick.

I prefer to let the readers decide for themselves who made the better case. You can feel free to tally all the things you like in your own mind.
Quote:I get so tired of having to teach you the basics of logical reasoning...
I guess we are mutually tired of this exchange. I should have given up on trying to reason with you long ago.
