19weeler and Sqwak, what I am saying is that morality is pointless without a higher law maker, if you find this offensive then so be it. It has nothing to do with it being ‘weak’ Sqwak, the point is that it is there at all for without God it stands on absolutely no logical basis. You do correctly point out though that this fact is strong evidence for the existence of God. Whilst I agree none of the atrocities by Stalin et al were done specifically in the name of atheism, atheism was the ruling philosophy and their actions were completely consistent with it. Think about it, if we are nothing more than a cosmic accident, evolved pond scum as some would say, then why should there be any value at all for human life?

As I have said to Iron Skillet, we are all religious in that we hold some beliefs by faith, weather that is the God of the bible, Allah or random chance. And I agree all religions can’t all be right but it does not logically follow that they must all therefore be wrong.
