I don't either.
Similarly, I don't know what you expect to come from such blatantly disingenuous statements...either.
So here we are, a few pages in, we see that there are many ways to determine what is good, that atheists can use any number of them, even the same as those used by theists....but you find yourself having to make statements such as these in order to justify -your- moral truths, whereas I do not. If we're both getting the same "genocide is always wrong" effect....I can't help but stick with my process - if for no other reason than the unnecessary baggage which you've decided to put on parade in these posts.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
