Deception is bad because it keeps people ignorant of reality and a solid understanding of reality is important because it a lack of understanding makes them more likely to make choices that have negative consequences for their welfare and/or that of others.
Morals are social constructs conceived by humans to enable general welfare. They are relative to a particular culture at a particular time. Maher judges by liberal morals, which are based on humanist philosophical principles.
The murder thing... was just an example of an immoral act (at least in this planet, haha).
Si hablaras español sería mucho mejor; así puedo dedicarme, con mayor estilo, a burlarme de tus puramente retóricos, falaces y esquivos argumentos (¿a Uds. los teístas les expenden diplomas honoríficos por esto, verdad? “Doctorado en el método práctico de circunnavegar la razón” y si estas en el Vaticano: “Doctorado en pederastia y empleo de la chusma”). Saludos otra vez!
Could I ask forgiveness in a court of law, because I belive that MAYBE exists a paralel universe where murder is legal? Or maybe because I belive that, in the future, murders will be worship? If that is your argument against wise Bill's accusations, the theist argument, please grant me the pleasure of expose your foolishness... Oh, sorry, I didn't really realize, I already did it. :P
I do NOT speak English, so please, excuse my grammar.
The cool thing is that now Sam Harris told us a little bit more about morality. So everything that you just say, is wrong. Sorry pal, you arrive to late.
Well, if you say that every paradigm of morality is no longer useful, except for a determined period of time, now we can just ignore it?... Jesus XD
How about the morality teached by other religions? Doesn´t that proof them right aswell? With your argument for morality, all religions that theaches morality are real. But then..how can christianity be the true religion?
