Right ok... and yet without it the world would fall to chaos, logic doesn't rule the world it gives us guidelines and insight, We are born with a logical mind and morals. Religion fucks that up. Look at the bible !1. That's not true, our morality is not based on logic, at least I hope yours isn't. Morality is most of the time illogical. And I really couldn't give a shit about the Bible. Logically, yes, selling your daughter as a sex slave earns the parents some financial reward doesn't it. In fact, a daughter can be a financial liability, so it makes sense to sell her as a sex slave. Welcome to using logic as the basis for morality my friend, welcome.
The God of the Bible allows slavery, including selling your own daughter as a sex slave (Exodus 21:1-11), child abuse (Judges 11:29-40 and Isaiah 13:16), and bashing babies against rocks (Hosea 13:16 & Psalms 137:9). Is that moral ?
2. Ow it doesn't ? Do elaborate on how it doesn't ?
Do you believe in Zeus ?
2. Atheism is the lack of a belief. I don't just lack a belief in Zeus, I reject it with a positive rejection i.e. there's no way Zeus exists. That's not the same as atheism.
