you don’t have to believe in God to have a sense of morality,

That proposition is: acceptable

To: Oztrich Boy

Don’t dismiss the rest of the argument -

Your belief in God is not necessary to have a sense of morality.

But that is INDEPENDENT of the real issue of whether God is necessary for there to BE morality.

There’s no avoiding that elephant in the room.

Your BELIEF in gravity is independent of whether you’ll break your leg if you jump off the roof.
