What's wrong with stealing ideas? And, for that matter, according to your atheistic worldview, what's wrong with stealing anything? What's wrong with hypocrisy?
Like most people, I think lying is a negative quality, therefore wrong.
Like most people, where? Why is a negative quality wrong? The emphasis here is "you think". But, as I asked before, according to your worldview, objectively speaking, why should I care what you think about anything? Or "most people" for that matter?
What if I put another value on lying than you do? Or most people? Or other people?
Can you please provide some justification from your worldview, for how you can give me any kind of objective value statement?
Maybe you all recycle your favourite 'atheists must all be nihilists' crap. I'm not going to fall down that circular rabbit hole again and waste any more of my time.
I'm not recycling anything. I'm following your worldview to its logical conclusion. You may subjectively create a meaning, but why does your manufactured meaning hold any weight with anyone beyond your fizzing brain chemicals?
You are literally, just a conglomeration of chemicals obeying the laws of nature which have occurred as a result of a series of chance incidents over billions and billions of years. You might dislike that view, but that IS your reality as an atheist.
If you don't understand what a sensible person is then I'm very sorry for you. Google may be more helpful. Try that.
I'm not conversing with a search engine. I'm conversing with you. Don't play coy. What is your standard of sensible? How did you come to that conclusion?
I don't find it sensible to deny your Creator. I find that foolish. Putting the burden to define your terms on me is bad argumentation.
As an Atheist, you're necessarily a relativist. As a relativist, I'm wondering, how can you possibly come to my post and tell me about the value of Jesus' teachings, sensibility, positive vs. negative qualities, behavior, etc. Who are you to tell me what is and is not "right" and "wrong"?
You're not consistently an Atheist. You're stealing from my worldview to make any of these arguments.
You're living in God's world. Using the knowledge, logic, reasoning, and preconditions for intelligibility God has given you to deny God. That is foolishness.
