Sorry...I just had to! ;o)
Post Modernism, there are no moral absolutes. Truth has been boiled down to whatever is right for you....may not be right for me.
Sorry for getting off on a separate tangent.....it's something I sometimes become passionate about.
Yes, this is another point of contention. SOME non-believers call believers stupid, and believers call non-believers amoral.
Both wrong in my opinion.
Parents and society indoctrinate kids in morals. Kids learn what is good and what is bad, what is acceptable and what's not. For this purpose, it makes no difference why, where and how the parent came into knowledge of what is good and not. Kids will trust the parents authority and develop the moral backbone before they are really able to grasp such abstract ideas as G-d, or afterlife, etc. O-o yes, they will repeat all the right keywords and lots of funny touchy stuff, but no real comprehension. The fact that the moral code was given to mankind by G-d, or mankind developed this morale code on its own, is irrelevant. Kids will learn what you feed them. I agree and follow myself, and enforce in my kids the Judeo-Christian moral absolutes minus G-d. I think they are one of the greatest achievements of our civilization.
"If no G-d, all is acceptable" is wrong, gross misrepresentation, and misunderstanding. More, if we to believe the legends, it was coined by Dostoevsky, a religious man himself, so it may be just a libel.
For you I am wrong. An independent observer will not find a difference in our behavior.
With great respect,
