>people who claim to be atheists yet still believe in spooky concepts like "virtue" and "morality"

>>1484

Provide an argument for why rejecting the existence of a transcendent deity aposteori has anything to do with arguments for morality? Where is the contradiction? Since Plato the question of morality has always sided with it being something even a deity had to be under and not above of.

morality isn't real

Whatever. Quality thread right here.


fefa34 No.1488

>>1487

the burden of proof rests upon your shoulders for making the claim that morality is real

>>1488

No, the burden of proof is on you. You started the thread. This is what you believe. You are the one making the claim.

You make single propositions without backing them up. That is not an argument.

Shit thread btw.

Let me get this straight. To you, atheism equates to the rejection of everything that "isn't real". Please explicate on that by justifying why you use a term that means something else and what exactly you consider to be real. Then provide a reason for what differentiates concepts like "morality" from concepts like "fairness" or "equality" or "society", if indeed they differentiate at all. Then substantiate your initial claim by arguing for the inexistence of those concepts or, to be lenient, of what those concepts refer to. To complete the picture, present an amount of people who would agree with you up to this point while also calling themselves atheists (using your definition, not theirs), preferably an amount sizable enough to warrant the generalisation you've presented.

Then, and only then, have you got yourself a seeming paradox we can talk about.

Let's see we have strawmanning, a false dichotomy, greentext, and one line in the OP post.

I agree with >>1487 and >>1502

You're a faggot, and you're thread is shit

lol. educate yourself, dumb guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophic_burden_of_proof

>muh wall of text

you still haven't proven morality real

>>1514

>entire post is a red herring

>accuses others of logical fallacies

still haven't proven morality real.


77de61 No.1518

>>1517

Your very existence proves morality is real

>you're a degenerate faggot

>which means degeneracy is real

>to have degeneracy you must have morality

>so morality is real

great posting by the way, you're really funny


f3cbec No.1521

Y'all are getting out of line.

First of all,

>define morality

Once we define what we all mean by that, we can start moving forward.

>>1517

>muh wall of text

Really? Ignoring my question concerning your question? I'm asking why you define atheism as a rejection of everything that isn't real and further how you define reality in this context, specifically pertaining to morality and the like. Only then does the question become relatable and you might get some serious replies.
