Debate Night

Tonight we went to a debate on whether one can act in a moral way without belief in a god. The god in the room tonight was of a Judeo-Christian nature. I couldn't tell you if it fell more toward one than the other, as the theology of the religious side of the debate became and remained muddled.

Nothing gets me more than people who claim a religion is about love first and foremost and then seek to withhold any kind love from those who don't agree with their point of view. The cat ran into the wall today chasing a piece of paper she was holding in her own mouth. She would have been better at arguing logically (or coherently! I would have accepted either!) than most of the people talking about god tonight.

Perhaps I should offer her to SOLAS (look it up, I had to) the next time they try to play debate. At least she won't call my moral standards into disrepute just because I'm a humanist.
