Whether you're atheist or not doesn't really matter.
It mattered in the context that you were joking that my moral compass is based entirely on a very old book of fiction. :P
Is it wrong to make a false statement?
Yes. It is literally wrong.
We can debate semantics (or religion) if you want, but this is not the best venue.
Also, no one is entitled to their opinion. Opinions should be justifiable. Stonewalling doesn't grant you any special privilege.
Person A and Person B might have very similar moral standards but dig deep enough and you'll inevitably find difference.
I would argue the inverse.
Anyway, if you're done "poking fun"...
Well, I mean, you just keep giving me more ammo.
How does one justify an opinion? You'd have to have a common value system to determine how something is "justified." :p And how would you remove said "entitlement," control their thoughts? Tell them that your opinion is the only one that matters? Stonewalling doesn't have to grant me a special privledge other than the fact that it's my freedom to do so.
And by arguing the inverse you then have to prove that everyone has at least one common moral trait. That's much harder.
And you keep using the word wrong. You can't define something as wrong without agreeing what wrong is. Your thought process that you can end a statement with the word is inherently wrong ;P
Also, the Bible (or any holy text) was just an example really of one of the main issues with moral philosophy. No one really cares if your atheist. Just like no one really cares if I believe in God.
You say this is the wrong venue, but considering others wanted to bring up sexism; I feel entitled to bring up the pint that their morality is questionable itself. It's just as relevant ;p
Im being a bit of a dick, but this is basically now my inclination whenever anyone mentions anything to do with a moral standard or politics
