What? No moral relativists online today?
Usually you're all so loud and persistent.
There are values which are contrary to many fundamental religious perspectives. Some atheists focus on intellectual values like skepticism and critical thinking while others focus on ethics and think all people already know what’s is wrong or right … Everyone is brought up with some sort of moral system, and it usually works well enough? What's the point of putting more rules and more moral rather than simplified it all down to Do Not Harm?
