I used to know two atheist brothers (in real life) who would hold you at knife point if you had nice shoes. I'm pretty sure they didn't feel "obliged to be moral".(September 12, 2021 at 11:19 am)Ahriman Wrote: I don't need to be moral, God covers that base for me. God is moral, so I don't need to be.
Why do atheists like to pretend they're moral people just because they don't believe in God?
Because, without God, it's up to us to make a decent, fair world. We're obliged to be moral. Theists can and do, as you say, just "recline in God's arms." And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the number one reason I disdain religion. That and the lack of logic and/or evidence for any gods' existence.
