A theological answer to Dawkins (Introduction)
This is such a silly article. I don't understand why David Turell has linked to it here. Has the author never heard of the Eythyphro argument from Plato? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euthyphro_dilemma-As a rational empiricist of course I would say that the existence of gods and what those gods' supposed ideas on morality might be are just as much matters of opinion as human views on what might be for good or ill.-There are no absolutes in morality. Not even "thou shalt not kill". There are just very good reasons not to kill other people if you want to live a happy and peaceful life. If you want to go around murdering people your life it will probably be short.
