@monarkman1957 If I was to kill people it would be on my head untill I die but when I die I will just be dead thats it :-)

[monarkman1957]

@Mee551able Interesting question. The answer would be, quite possibly. With my "God in my head" as you put it, I would not just kill someone. Have no desire whatsoever to do so because that would mean that I would be taking a precious life, and displeasing the Lord by disobeying his law. Jesus said, if you hate someone, that considered murder in God's eyes, because you have murdered them in your heart and emotions.

@monarkman1957 With out your god in your head would you go out an kill some one?

[monarkman1957]

Atheists cannot for positive say what behavior is right or wrong, though they cannot pinpoint the origin of their presupposition of saying murder is wrong. Why is murder wrong? Who says so? Is it your opinion? Someone else may have the opinion that murder is ok. ( Hitler). Where is the standard? Should there be a standard, or should it be "anything goes"? If anything goes, then there is no order or absolute or law.

@MisterNickOtine Ok. So killing little children by slashing their throats with a sharp knife is right or wrong??? The Bible says it knows what is best for us. When it is says "you shall not murder" it is speaking as one who knows what is best for us. Do you think that NOT murdering is a better option over murdering? My presuppositions are based on a creator God knowing whats best and right for us

[MisterNickOtine]

@monarkman1957 Our rational understand of how our actions effects others guides our moral decision making. Who is say another knows best for us if we don't also know what is best for ourselves? How do we judge an authority correctly, if they are so clever as to be deceiving us? Theists are theists because they don't know any better.

@monarkman1957 A theist is simply one who will not admit there's no god and hates the thought of not having god or literal bible and the concept that we're complex organisms developed over millions of years of evolution. Theists have no morality whatsoever because they have only obedience to authority. They cannot understand the reason why murder is wrong, why would they ever question if they believe everything they are told?

[monarkman1957]

An atheist si simply one who will not admit there is a God and hates God and the Bible and the concept that we are simple created creatures. Atheists have no moral compass as regards to absolute morals. They cannot say that murder is wrong, what is there basis for saying its right or wrong? Our natural laws and inner conscience says that murder is wrong. Who is to say sex with a child is wrong? What is your basis on arriving at that conclusion? Atheists are atheists cause they choose that
