Dan Barker on the issue of rape
See also: Atheism and rape and Atheism and women
Christian apologist Kyle Butt wrote: "In fact, in my debate with Dan Barker, Barker admitted that fact, and stated that under certain circumstances, rape would be a moral obligation (Butt and Barker, 2009)"[1] (see: Atheist Dan Barker Says Child Rape Could Be Moral).
Atheism offers no condemnation of rape and it provides no moral basis a society to attempt to prevent and deter rape. Western atheists often assert there are no absolutes in morality and argue for moral relativism (see: Atheism and morality).
Commenting on Western atheism and rape, the Christian apologist Ken Ammi wrote:
