My cursor is not able to rate videos. Why is that? This is really weird. Does the YouTube staff make it difficult for some people to rate videos? Do hackers change this setting? It's true. I can not rate videos. Maybe someone can give me some technical advise?
Atheists live based on the christian principle. if you think you are independent then come up with your own way life. for example: how do an atheist know right from wrong?
All moral issues do stem from either the social contract, the social consensus or by a extension the golden rule.
But what you have to figure out is: Hos does a Christian know what is right or wrong, i mean the bible does say that you SHOULD stone people to death for working on the sabbath and that slavery is cool.
In reality Christians do cherrypick among they "moral" code.
The criteria for that cherry picking is the same as for atheists.
you should also know that the famous people that ever lived (eg. Newton) were christians. there are no such thing as golden rule ok! you just pick the words out of the bible that "you should stone people to death".. you should read it in context nor picking out randomly and conclude. and yes, atheist dont have any sort of rules at all. ok if you are one change or face the judgement.
Actually, Most of the famous people who have ever lived Weren't Christian. If you only meant American/Western history, you're Still wrong, as many were deists, not Christians. How do I get my morality? Try Rawls principle of nature and the veil of ignorance, or Kant, or Utilitarianism. Read some philosophy. Your "Christian" morality is Wrong.
This is a very good and well reasoned out response. One of the best reasons I can think of for the non-existance of God or Gods is that humans are all born atheists and must be taught to believe in a God or gods. If there were such a thing as god(s), don't you think he'd make you born to naturally be aware of him/her/it? You would then have an unambiguous choice of whether to be obedient or not.
