Unless a bad cop like you comes along who violates their rights and railroaded lots of people just because they didn't believe in your dumb childish fairytales or evil god whore.RickeyHoltsclaw said:@jack No, the Bill of Rights grants your the rights granted you by our Creator....if you were not lawless and narcissistic, you would not have to worry about me or other officers.
It is a pretty funny idea that making up a fantasy creature and deriving morality from it leads to objective morality. I will from now on derive my morality from Orcs. Specifically from the Blackrock clan. Lok'tar Ogar!just_sayin said:
Neither of you like to admit it, but you both know I'm right. Atheism does not offer an objective source of what is good and evil. Good and evil is just your personal opinion, or the opinion of a group. Either of which can be subjugated by a more powerful person or group. You can't say that something is objectively good or evil, only that it is your preference. Atheism is a substandard system of morality, because it really isn't about justice or defending the weak, but defending the interests of the most powerful. And we all know I'm right - and it angers you that it is true.
It's not about you proclaiming a strawman to knock down that's for sure. I do not hate god, I don't believe it exist so how can I?just_sayin said:The debate isn't about your hate of God. My point is that there can not be objective morals within an atheistic framework - either morals are what an individual says they are, or what a group says they are. Both individuals and groups are flawed and subject to personal prejudices. Within atheism there is no objective source of morality to appeal to. Your morals are no better than the morals of a pedophiles - both of you do what you think is best for yourself. You may not like how I frankly frame the discussion, but it is the truth.Factfinder said:@just_sayin
Its not that atheists can't be moral people - its that atheism offers no basis for an objective morality
Kudos on your preaching abilities but as you know this is a debate site of which you've lost this debate numerous times already. No matter how many times you preach fallacy, it remains false.
Where your illogic always fails you is claiming an imaginary god derived from 66 fictious myth books combined into one, somehow dispenses morals when the violence contained within the writings are subject to human oversight and correction through the canonization process. In other words humans condoned acts of violence on behalf of their god as it is written and that just signifies human approval based in fantasy. Subjective. Open to interpretation. Far from objective.
