Harris: I'm very sad to hear that you would have no idea how to act morally without the existence of an undemonstrated celestial fascist dictator.
Morality has no meaning if it is based in god's opinion. Any definition of morality which isn't evaluated by the wellbeing of living creatures is a pointless one to begin with, concerned more with toadying than on caring about anyone or anything.
I would like to think that you would be very surprised by your own morality if you did lose your belief and find you do have an internal moral compass. I would estimate 9 out of 10 people who talk like you are mistaken about themselves.
