Atheism is a belief about the existence of gods. Moral theories are a separate issue.<BR/><BR/>Now, Rho, you could claim that according to <I> all moral theories any atheist could adhere to </I>, suicide bombings and violence are neither good nor bad. Such a claim would be, of course, blatantly false - just like the one in your above comment.<BR/><BR/>Walton doesn't deserve any replies that can be stated politely, but I'll continue chatting with you in hopes that you do.G-manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09334547875471663650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-271584555902655315.post-63510562560428129172007-12-30T19:11:00.000-08:002007-12-30T19:11:00.000-08:00The goal is that God be glorified.

Why not complain about neighbor helping neighbor, people feeding the hungry, etc? It's the same moral value either way.Rhologyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14245825667079220242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-271584555902655315.post-53198812260899304012007-12-28T22:37:00.000-08:002007-12-28T22:37:00.000-08:00Oh, no, but to the atheists, violence and atrociti...Oh, no, but to the atheists, violence and atrocities are all morally ambiguous.
