What is the hypocrisy of atheism? It is to deny the validity of belief, all the while holding one’s own set of beliefs. When atheists hold their own blind beliefs, they have no right to ask anyone else for scientific evidence for their beliefs? So what blind beliefs do atheists hold? Plenty, but let’s start with their belief in ‘good’.
Atheists assume that it is possible to define morality without God, that the actions of humans can be ‘good’ or ‘bad’, ‘right’ or ‘wrong’. However, there is no way to scientifically identify anything as being ‘right’ or ‘wrong’, it is a belief.
For example, atheists assume that murder is wrong, but on what scientific basis? Many supremacists argue that certain races are inferior, and that just as murdering cows and chickens is not wrong, similarly, murdering the people of certain races is also not wrong. On the other hand, many vegans argue that animals are not inferior and have as much of a right to life as we do, and that just as murdering humans is wrong, similarly the murdering of animals is wrong. There is no scientific evidence on which one can establish the ‘sanctity of life’ for the human species, no evidence that can prove or disprove any belief in a particular standard murder.
