And a moral absolutist as well.

You cannot be an atheist and a moral absoulutist. Read the article at the Mises Institute. Heck, read any basic text on moral philosophy.

Moral guidance comes from Natural Law--the Divine Order of God--and Revelation.

Yes, in fact I can.

(and am)

The fact that you cannot comprehend the notion, has no bearing on it's truth.

That's strange. The four noble truths and the eightfold path mention nothing of any god, yet they contain plenty of moral guidance.

What a coinky-dink.
