I'm not against you (yet), I'm merely trying to clarify something. I'd have to agree with your discourse above against whomever would object, brother Wink

I make two assumptions. The first is that morality instructs and favours. It is normative. The second is that morality's instructions are ones that confer a reason for compliance to all, whatever anyone's interests.

I take both claims to be conceptual truths about morality. I am then arguing that there is only one thing that could have those features, and that's the instructions of a certain sort of god.

perhaps there's some other way of satisfying those features. But I do not know of it. Perhaps those assumptions are false. But nobody has provided me with any reason to think they are false yet.
