God can never know that this statement is true. clarification: If god don't know of the statement he is obviusly not all-knowing. If god do know of the statement then the statement is wrong and therefore god is wrong hence not all-knowing.

I'd rather view morality as an idéa than a set of evolutionary selected behavorial traits (altough of course it affects behavior in the same sense as lets say religion does). Animals have behaviors altough only a few of them something that could be called 'a moral code'.

Then why dont just contemplate what is to the benefit of the soceity, rather than what is moral? Im sure you can come up with an example yourself, where whats moral is not to the benefit of soceity. Also there is a fundamental difference between rules and morality.

Nihilism will never be a problem for mankind. It's simply too far away from the human nature. Too empty for those in need of faith. Too mush a faith for those who do not.

What you're talking about is nothing else than the immorality of weakness. These fanatics, wouldn't be able to feed themselves unless you hit them with a whip so why deny them that? To them god is nothing but a slavemaster. What they really seek is revenge, wish is only natural. "Hell are the...
