I just heard Apostate Prophet talking about how Muslims argue against atheists about morality.
Muslims think atheists cannot accurately claim that they follow an objective morality.
This is silly. Morality is objective regardless of what people believe about god/atheism.
Morality being objective just means that we can make moral judgements. We can find flaws in our ideas and evolve our ideas so they don't have those flaws. We can judge if one moral idea is better or worse than a competing moral idea. And in any given situation, there are facts of the matter, together with our general theories, that would help us make these judgements.
Questions? Criticisms?
