Atheists only vote please: Do absolute MORAL truths exist? Is Rape ALWAYS "wrong"?

Sloppy thinking. Just because one might think an action is right doesn't mean that one ascribes the rectitude of the action to the social mores around him.

I called it on page 4:

You deliberately used this emotionally-charged question.

So you disagree with me that rape is always wrong, but youre not willing to stand on this and provide an example? Whats there for me to work to prove then? According to my stats, not a single atheist believes that rape is absolutely and universally wrong despite opinion, time, or space. Also according to my stats, nearly everyone in the world disagrees. Iv not found a single theist of any type or religion that agrees with the atheist view on this

[Emphasis added -- Parks]

You apparently haven't read the Bible.
