{{Cquote|It’s been fascinating to watch the very vocal and prolific new atheists, such as [[Christopher Hitchens]], [[Sam Harris]], [[Daniel Dennett]] and [[Richard Dawkins]], make a case for objective morality. The phrase “objective morality” is a way of indicating that some behaviors are right (truth telling, kindness, tolerance) and some behaviors are wrong (rape, murder, racism) — for real. Morality is not just a matter of personal preference and choice (akin to liking peanuts better than almonds), but rather laws that are real and true and binding no matter what one thinks about them or whether one chooses to follow them.
