Morality Subjective / Objective?

[Theland]

What underpins your personal morality?
Is it objective or subjective?

[nailit]

Theland, you are a decent human being.
A decent human being trying to put a round peg into a square hole with the religion stuff.

Nailit - Please please please tell me why you as a devout atheist who believes God Jesus and the bible are all rubbish, spend so much time and energy criticising it all?
It would be just as rewarding to criticise the YellowPages .
Also, your advice please.
Should I stop asking these questions?
They seem to arouse such anger.

Thought you were weary and needed a rest?
Or are you turning the conversation away from questions that challenge you again?

[Theland]

I am weary.

I am not going to read through 6 pages of postings so my point has probably been made by someone else. I am of the objective morality camp. There is absolute not relative truth, and absolute not relative morality.
For me as a Christian, God is the source of morality. Only God is good.
If you attempt to create morality without reference to God, you have no fixed point to anchor your ideas. Instead you just have a shifting sand of constantly changing values.
If society today believes paedophilia is morally wrong. What if in 50 years time, 95% of the population think it is fine. Does that make it morally right?

But still posting on AB???

Funny God you got there!
Prefer my own morality that doesnt involve genocide TBH.

[nailit]

Oooeerr!
Didnt see those removed posts.
Anyway, you are NOT weary are you Theland?
Quite active on other posts. Just dodging this one for the time been.

[Theland]

Fiveloaves - Well put.
That is precisely my point.

[Theland]

Nailit - my brain is like a cauliflower, quite weary.

[nailit]

Answer when you can Theland ;-)
(or will)

[Theland]

Nailit - When YOU can, look at my question at 19:06.

[Atheist]

Fiveleaves. Do you know what paedophilia means? Do you know that many early christians believed that sexual activity between men and women was evil?

What is good about slaughtering thousands of people, women and children included? Theland, you’re welcome to answer that too if you like.

[Peter Pedant]

[Peter Pedant]

my EARS are like flowers - cauliflowers!

( and my teeth are like stars - they come out at night)

Naomi , when you put it in such stark terms it of course makes no sense.
But of course this is a non question if asked by an atheist who considers the bible to be pure myth.
