The difference between ethical atheism and nihlism is that ethical atheists have more faith

[Whateverist]

Or else the self appointed judge who wrote the rule book he thinks applies to others is wrong. On this we obviously disagree.

What rule book?

The book of immutable morals you mistakenly think you've justified in your little treatise.

That's right. Where we disagree is in thinking that there is any objective basis for anyone's morality or that justification is required.

Then you'd have no cause to complain if someone steals from you or kills you.

Complaining wouldn't be high on my list of priorities if I was being robbed or attacked. That doesn't mean I wouldn't take any action. It just means whining in self-righteous indignation wouldn't be one of them. If anyone comes creeping through a window I would know for certain that their values did not align with mine so I would have to find some other criteria to make them desist other than reasoned argument. What would you do, talk them to death?


But enough. Clearly we do not agree on morality, atheism or probably much of anything else. To you I lack any morality at all. To me you are a self-satisfied prig who believes he has perfect insight into others even while lacking any insight into himself. You obviously enjoy debate for its own sake. So I leave you to it.
