Godless Engineer | Can Atheists Really Have Morals Without God? RE: @Deflate2020 @godlessengineer | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
Today, I'm diving into one of the most frequent topics apologists throw at atheists: morality. They seem to think they've got us cornered when it comes to grounding our moral values without invoking God. Well, let's set the record straight.
In this video, I'll respond to Lucas from the Deflate channel, who recently critiqued my short video on grounding morality as an atheist. Lucas believes that without a divine command, our moral foundations crumble. I'll explain why that's not the case and delve deeper into what it means to ground morality in a secular framework.
I'll discuss the complexities of moral foundations, why empathy and humanism are central to my moral philosophy, and how these concepts provide a robust basis for determining right from wrong. We'll also address common misconceptions and strawman arguments, including the often-misused Richard Dawkins quote about the universe's indifference.
Throughout the video, I'll highlight the stark differences between a moral foundation grounded in humanistic principles versus one grounded in divine commands, which can sometimes justify heinous acts. By the end, you'll understand how atheists can build solid moral frameworks without resorting to supernatural beliefs.
Join me as I break down these arguments, provide nuanced explanations, and equip you with the knowledge to stand up and use your voice. Don't forget to let me know your thoughts on Lucas's points and my responses in the comments below.
