The Atheist Delusion (2016)

I would like to address your argument as a former atheist. First of all, if we are animals without any deity (I’m not arguing which diety or religious book), right and wrong, uncaring, wrathful would not exist. A pet dog or cat can’t feel wrath or understand the concept of, “uncaring,” These are both examples of things that animals can’t experience but humans can. If we are animals, that’s not possible. There are tons of other examples of this. Do you have a conscience? Animals don’t. Do you have an appreciation for beauty? Animals don’t. The fact that you can judge a deity as uncaring proves that you’re not an animal. Your own logic is fallacious. The crimes of Hitler and Nero would not be bad or good. They would equal with the majesty of Victoria Falls. I’m not arguing the existence of God right now- just that there is a measure of good and bad. This measure would not exist if we were animals.

Furthermore , I did not judge any actual diety because I have never acknowledged one exists only the idea of one created by christians etc . you say “This measure would not exist if we were animals.” That is pure arrogance and ignorance and an obvious attempt to elevate yourself and your own importance , HUmans have been on this planet for a tiny amount of time compared to many animals living and dead , when we have been here for aslong as the dinosaurs were then maybe we have earnt the right to be as arrogant as you obviously are . PLease dont be a complete moonfruit and deny dinosaurs
