(can you see now why that objection is pointless, lol?)
Quote:I went elsewhere to see if I could resolve this via someone who does this for a living and, I was unpleasantly surprised to find out, nope, no solutions out there.Then look harder. Search for William Lane Craig, for example, debating a secular objective moral theorist. Maybe it'll appeal to you since the secular objectivist is shitting on a christer like it was his job.
Quote:If you can find one, please, I invite you, cite and post, and I'll give it due consideration. I no longer trust your capability to do this on your own so forgive the eye-rolling if you want to keep jabbering on. Ironic how you used the Dude (shittiest movie ever, BTW, you have SUCH great taste, big surprise) to illustrate what you're incapable of understanding.Oh, now you;ve got a problem with the dude -and- secular objective morality? Pistols at 5 paces.
