Quote:So, supposing there were no eye in the sky...you can see no reason that we might want to issue moral proclamations? No god - rape is a go. No god - murder is a go. No god - theft is a go. I'm starting to feel very uncomfortable with the knowledge that you may actually believe this...and that there are people who would agree with you......
I don't believe for a minute that they really believe that. I think the moral argument is sophistry designed to provide a rationalization for the belief they already have.
How many ex-Christians do you know in your local atheist community? OK, now of those, how many of them went on a crime spree after their deconversion?
Further evidence that morality has no basis in religion.
