Nihilist: The Intellectually Honest Atheist


Title:
Nihilist: The Intellectually Honest Atheist

Description:
An intellectually honest atheist must conclude that all morality is an illusion. A few points: 1. I'm talking about OBJECTIVE morality. Subjective morality is just a preference, and not morality in the classic sense. 2. This is talking about atheist morality only. I am not comparing it to theist morality. Theist morality has absolutely nothing to do with this topic. 3. Discussion and debate is adored. But please, don't point out the problems with theistic morality. It has as much to do with this topic as a comment on properly making blueberry pancakes.

Part I: "Atheists Have NO Morals?!"
Morality only comes from God? Morality is only qualified through God? The self-serving cherry-picking of these different epistemological critera for the validation of different 'forms' of knowledge has led to this ridiculous notion that moral knowledge is impossible without appealing to God. These people forget that all the good we observe, is found in the WORLD.
Steven Pinker 3of3: Reverse engineering romance and revenge
Steven Pinker on the computational theory of mind and evolutionary psychology. Our mental faculties assume a world like that of our ancestors.

VCR 1 - Argument From Normative Facts
Veritas Challenge Reply #1 (VCR 1) The argument from normative facts. Veritas claims that humans cannot get an ought from and is, but then does little more then assert that god somehow can. Also, according to his Q&A video, I have turned Noah (veritas) into a homosexual because of my hair. All I can say is too bad you missed my blog tv show the other night, because zomgitscriss and thepeach convinced me to do the show shirtless ;)
