Atheism has no objective morality to claim You're suggesting a god is required to have objective morality? Has this ever been demonstrated? Has it ever been shown to be impossible without a god? My question to you: Is something moral because God said so, or does God say so because it's moral? If the former is true, then whatever God says is moral, goes. If God one day says it's okay to slaughter innocent children, then "morality" has no meaning. If the latter is true - that God says so because it's moral - then there must be some foundation for moral truth out there which would render God irrelevant. Side: Not zealots

Nobody has any objective morality. That's the point. What's objective about believing (without any proof) in the stories of shepherds from thousands of years ago: stories concerning an unseeable, invisible, untestable, unquantifiable entity that arbitrates in all human affairs: stories which are thus far, continually challenged and disproved in many areas by testable scientific facts and theories? There's nothing objective in "faith", Cartman, nor in any morality derived from it. Side: Atheists are religious zealots
