The point of the original post is that here is one of the world's leading atheistic philosophers admitting that there is no rational way to explain why people should be good.

So... either we must abandon the idea that "we should be good" - and shut this whole activist board down - OR we must explain ...

"Why be good?"

dig?


You ask me if a murder can be good?
I answer with a question. Can ANYTHING be good?
If you say yes, I'm going to then ask you "how", and then we've come right back to the quote that I originally posted.

See how it comes together (or falls apart)?
