Moral Argument for God's Existence

Morality has to do with how we deal with other conscious beings with respect to their well being, and giving them a chance to flourish.

A single person can not act immorally or morally, since there are no other conscious beings to interact with.

Atleast read a few post before making same old defeated arguments. This point has already been addressed - therefore, repeating the same refutation over and over again gets really tiring.

Morality is a conceptual standard applicable to conscious human actions and behavior that dictates how they should live their lives.

To put it in words you'd understand - morality has to do with how a person acts or behaves. It includes - but is not limited to - actions and behavior that affect his dealings with other conscious beings with respect to their well-being. Once again - it includes this, but is not limited to it.

Which is why a single person can act morally or immorally without other conscious beings to interact with.
