Why do you think degree one is correct but not degree two? You have so far explained why you like degree one, but not degree two. How do you know degree one is correct but not degree two?
I am probing you because you are advocating a nihilistic belief system that undermines all morality and is much more destructive than you think it is.
If atheism doesn't entail moral relativism (in a strong form) and moral relativism doesn't entail nihilism, PROVE IT!
You can state the difference between one form of moral relativism and another one hundred times, but that will not show why your belief entails the first but not the second.
- but this is serious, the most serious question you will ever answer.
I believe that God is holy, and God establishes existence and morality together, giving them both meaning and value, directing them both towards the glory/pride/praise/excellence/intention of God, defining them and constricting them and causing them to exist in a tension between their nature and response to their enviroment with morality being created situationally through the interaction of these parts as they represent the will and intention of God in each as well as God's personal supernatural direction which overrules them all because God is God.
