See, see! Even Dawkins says we must not believe in evil! Just like I always say, I don't believe in sin or forgiveness!

Did you listen to the question Ravi asked to Dawkins about The woman story..."Mr. Dawkins , Is that Evil ? " , Let me ask you Lucas this question "Is that Evil ??! "

I've not watched the videos, but off the title and Lucus' comment:
There has never been a reason to believe in god. Because a 2000 year old book says it is certainly no reason.
Evil? Heh. I don't even know what your talking about...

God definately exist but i dont see God as being a single being or even an enity i see God as the prime energy source for all that is. This source is conscious, aware, and experiences all feelings in every thing imaginable throughout the universe. The source is in each of us and at our deepest core we are the source. We are all connected, we are all one because we are all link to this source. This source loves us, loves our experiences both good and bad and feeds off our ideas of thoughts, as the universe expands so does it. If properly used this source can provide us of anything our hearts desire. People call it God other names ive heard are Source, Love, All That Is, and the Universe.

Evil implies that morals are objective. Objective morals need a basis beyond cultural values, objective measures. So atheism = morals are relative and based on cultural values, and emotions evolved for group survival. If morals are relative, then everything is permitted, regardless of consequences. From an atheist viewpoint, your desire to not kill people is simply an evolved reaction to help your species survive, and is therefore meaningless.Whilst theists may or may not believe in evolution, the majority will contend that compassion has meaning beyond group survival.
So, question to an atheist: What are right and wrong, what is their basis, and why are they important?

Evil - What gets in the way of your perfect world. Good - what moves towards your own personal perfect world.
