True.

Doesn't mean he's wrong.

He is wrong. The concept of "objective morality" is incoherent without religion, and Abrahamic monotheism in particular. No wonder, the overwhelming majority of atheists are moral nihilists, and the few atheists who argue for moral objectivism (like Sam Harris) are morons who cannot answer basic questions of metaethics and moral epistemology.

Fuck God(s), religion, scientism, blind faith, dogmas, masters, servants, all that shit.

I'm an athiest. Sam Harris is a pompous idiot. He does not represent all atheists, though I bet he wishes he did.

I am still ethical and moral.

Natural Law = Do not harm others (including theft and deception).

Fundamental, simple, elegant.

Fat people not wearing shirts in public is even more harmful to society.
