(507 posts)I'm interested in people believing they are required to avoid doing evil and to go good strongly enough for it to change behavior for the better.
I'm wondering where those "concepts" are if they aren't contained in the universe.
And, I'll point out, yet again for those who can't be bothered to read up-thread IT WAS RICHARD DAWKINS WHO SAID IT, I WAS JUST REPEATING IT AND TAKING HIM AT HIS WORD THAT HE BELIEVED THAT. He purported his nihilistic view to be supported by science as he purports to be a scientist. That puts the onus on him to really mean what he says when speaking ex cathedra, so to speak.
It's not my fault that the atheists here don't seem to believe he really meant what he said, I believe he meant it as I do the other atheists who said similar things about morality not being real.
