Twitter: twitter.com SCRIPT IS AT www.nonstampcollector.com OTHERS at www.nonstampcollector.com Why couldn’t an objective morality simply make sense? Why does looking at morality through the lens of Christianity make such LITTLE sense? Well, it’s obvious why – Christianity and its god is nonsense. There could be no clearer sign that Christianity is a man-made bunch of [More]
