Hey Grand Nudger, thanks for the nudge. I don’t see any direct link between atheism and moral error theory, merely that is is a view that is consistent with it and makes a lot of sense to me. I recognise there are a bunch of moral realist positions by atheist - something I have had to constantly point out to my friend.

Not sure of exact questions just yet, just an opening post to see what the deal is here

Sure, atheism is consistent with any metaethical position.  When you say error theory makes sense to you are we talking passive "we could get things wrong" or the more comprehensive abolitionist view that we do get everything wrong?  

If you thought about arson and gift giving is it that you think we may be too hard on arson and too soft on gift giving, or that there's truly nothing indecent about arson or decent about gift giving?
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!
