Morality

Morality
As William Lane Craig says without an absolute authority in the universe atheists have no reason to follow any set line of morals.
It's scary really, thank God for the police and the law stopping countless Godless people from doing heinous things.

It's scary really, thank gawd for the mods who stop the obvious trolls like you from shitting all over the forums.
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.

Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.

Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.

Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.

Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

So you're saying Doctor William Lane Craig is just a "troll"?

And what I understand, from reading this, is that if you didn't have an absolute authority dictating your every moral decision, you'd be out doing what the hell you like to others with no care for the consequences. That's not morality, that's blind-obedience at best, psychotic sociopathy at worst.

Globally, non-religious people are the most under-represented population of law-breakers. The facts show that you're lying.
Sum ergo sum

He's also a liar and a conman.

Oh, but who am I talking to... Goodbye, it was nice having you banned in 6 minutes. I think you broke a record or something

Christians base their beliefs on far shakier and vague predictions, to be certain.

Yes. And so were you.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
