i very much agree with CBARBER execpt my views are slightly different. I am not atheists. I feel there is somthing out there but I have yet to know the truth. But though I do not follow one set religion i refuse to allow myself to be controled by any. I have my own morals and Ideas of human dignity and no religion is going to make me change that. If there is a "god" of some sort morals are still up to the individual person. [[USER:STILLCONTEMPLATING|STILLCONTEMPLATING]]

God does not dictate morality, as he does not exist. Religious 'morality' is not morality at all, as you are following a moral set out of cowardice and fear than because you actually feel it to be right. God is dead, meaning that the Christian morality is no longer practical or reasonable to follow as enough people have freed themselves from it, seeing as it is truly the most foolish moral code ever set forth [[by man]]. I think that even if a god exists (which he does not), it would still be up  to people to decide what was right and what was wrong and to define them. Also, seeing as there is (unsurprisingly) no debate set up in which I can voice this opinion and still be relating to the subject of the debate: Christians, much like conservatives, are almost always stubborn, irrational, foolish, cowardly hypocrites.

There could be no standard of Morality withouth God. I could still sit here and say whether something is right or wrong, but that would just be my opinion based upon my personal preferences. Then everybodys morality would be subjective to whatever they prefer. Morality can only be an objective standard when God's in the picture who is infinite and unchanging. -- Ultimahero.
