To those people who have a problem understanding the immorality of cold-blooded murder in the name of God, I suggest you sign up for an account at Free Republic where you’ll be among like-minded bloodthirsty morons.

I’m thinking you are addressing my previous comment. If you are, I think you missed what I was trying to ask. I wasn’t suggesting that murder in the name of God is not immoral - there is no such thing as murder in the name of God. People that claim they are killing in the name of God are attempting to shirk responsibility for their immoral actions. As God commands us not to murder, it is impossible for one to murder in the name of God.

What I am suggesting is that without God there are no absolute morals, and therefore the people who are indignant about Tiller’s death and don’t believe in God are irrational because they have nothing to base their morality upon. If they try to base morality on the survival of the species, then by that morality, killing Tiller was good for the human race.

Simply put, morals don’t exist in a universe without God.
