Thread Name: BS: The 'moral' Atheist?
Subject: RE: BS: The 'moral' Atheist?
Basically is human morality not based on communal survival? We need other people to survive and thrive, and a suuessful community is in our best interests. For stability and to survive, a community needs an accepted framework of what is right and wrong for the survival and success of that community. This is normally determined and changes by necessicity and discussion. We conform because we see it as in our best interests.
