(October 17, 2013 at 6:55 am)Sword of Christ Wrote: For an atheist morality is only a mixture of current social tastes and evolutionary beneficial behavior in a social species. You don't go around killing people because you don't want people going around killing you. Beyond that morality as concept only exists in human brains.
Again, you see fit to tell us- people you've never met, occupying a soteriological position you've never experienced- what we believe. To that, by now, after being warned about that multiple times, I can only say, fuck you.
You don't get to demand things of us. You don't get to tell us the things we believe, and you don't get to take this haughty, superior stance over the things you want us to believe because it's more convenient for your dishonest and baseless argument.
We have this wonderful thing called a conscience, that apparently you christians seem to lack, which is why you need a book to tell you not to do things that us normal people find intuitive. That conscience was developed by evolution, yes, but that doesn't make it any less valid or sublime a concept than your- potentially nonexistent and entirely unevidenced- magic sky daddy's big book of rules.
Hell, those morals don't even come from god anyway, they can't, because if they did you'd be stuck with obeying anything he said up to and including immoral acts, under the illusion that it's moral because god says so. So don't pretend like you've got some moral high ground here, Sword.
