the other positive claim i made is that objective morality is impossible without the concept of a god and so far no one including you has been able to raise a counterargument.

 

and this is in regards to what exactly?


are you really a moderator?

I posted a counterargument to that claim this morning. 


 

"1. If God appeals to morality, then objective morality cannot exist. If Objective morality cannot exist then it does not exist. 

2. If God defines morality with his actions, then morality is not objective. If morality is not objective then Objective Morality does not exist. 

The only escape from this dilemma is to say that Objective Morality can exist without God. But that would refute your original point. Which is my point. :P"

 

well as i said afterwards i'm talking more about taking observations on which behavioral patterns are more productive and ascribing them to gods so these concepts can be communicated to the population in a digestible way
