It's not shallow. It's a logical observation on the nature of morality. Without an objective source of morality everything boils down to stark utilitarianism. Democracy posturing as morality, rule by numbers rather than what is right.
"Killing innocent humans is wrong."
Islam disagrees. One billion of them in fact. What now? How can that be dealt with? Is your belief system even equipped to deal with that?
That's the sort of nonsense which makes religious people look retarded, you cannot point to a room full of happy law abiding and highly moral people and decry them for mere beliefs.
You're being no less retarded than lefties who decry a room of Whites being immoral for being White.
Also fuck Islam, the only thing they're good for is how they treat their women.
In basically every pre-Christian society murder is only a big deal in as much as it destabilizes society. Killing an enemy is no big deal. Killing kin is big deal. Killing neighbor is bad but can be fixed with monetary compensation to their kin to avoid further conflict. It's fine to say you are moral without religion but it's good to recognize where those ideas of morality came from.
Am atheist, don't agree with abortion.
Granted I hate most atheists, and most religious people for that matter. There's good in both groups and retards in both as well.
No one said that you would agree with abortion. Merely that someone without a religion is out of place in a religious war.
Because leftism isn't about politics. And arguably it never was.
It comes across as shallow to suggest that without faith in god, you cannot have morals or something.
Killing innocent humans is wrong, sperm+egg=human, so the only logical conclusion is that abortion is wrong as well.
You don't have to be religious to have a moral center, just like how religious people (and atheists) often lack one anyways.

I think I can agree with that. Although I am sure some other place came up with similar morals without christianity.
Granted they probably got obliterated by the savage hordes.
