Wait a month, they'll be on to something else. Why take it on at all, if they say there'd be no morality without god...and if it weren't for god they be out raping and pillaging...just agree.

Yeah. It's probably a useless endeavor and clearly a troll account. Still couldn't stop myself from reading the whole thing. Also just seems a shame that only a few people are there trying to oppose it.

Really, her position can be boiled down into:

"Who are you to tell me to stop being an asshole? I'll be an asshole whenever I want! Neener neener!"

Just that it's couched in that persecution complex Christians have.

In spite of me assuming there is no god, I still don't lack morality.

If they say that I have moral standards because God is the reason I do, regardless of whether or not I believe in him, I would then ask them to provide a sound logical basis for their claim. Chances are they will not be able to.

You may agree that there're no morals* without a God.

*without a God it's no longer moral to split one's skull open with a rock and claim divine justice.

Who are you again?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
