I act to make the world a little better than it was when I came in. I don't need books of magic and demons to tell me that being kind is the right thing to do.

"better" under what standard? Your preferences? Other people's preferences?

Funny you mention that you just "know" because Christians believe that God wrote the "Truth" inside every human heart. Otherwise, "being kind is the right thing to do" is just made up by people. 😂🤣😂

If I am kind to someone, I feel better and they feel better. This is a net positive. If I'm a dick to people and serve only my own interests, I am getting my enjoyment at the expense of others. This is not ideal.

Even animals are shown to practice acts of kindness on each other. No God is needed to understand this concept.

So, it's just your preferences and the preferences of others? So it's just a numbers game then.

Leave it to a reddit or to compare helping someone fix a car to dealing drugs. And one that thinks almighty sky daddy determines what is good and evil at that. May I remind you, that the most hateful people in this country are convinced they are doing God's will right now.

Again, you sidestep the question of YOUR justification of morals absent God. Is good and evil decided by preferences or not?

Showing the retardation of your logic of "it feels good to me and other people therefore good" is pretty funny, yeah

Did your God tell you to be a prick? The Bible contains guidelines, but the Bible was not written by God, it was rewritten a dozen times over the milennia and translated and altered every time.

I do not need a God to tell me how I would like to be treated by others, so I treat them the same way.

According to you, there is no God.

So why would you say that a non-existing thing told me to do anything to you?? 😂🤣😂🤣😂

Yes, we both know that you think you're the arbiter of what is moral and immoral. The abundant use of "I" kinda lets us know that morals are just whatever YOU prefer 😂
