Well this would be my definition, but this is funny coming from someone making a case for scientific morality.https://twitter.com/samharrisorg/status/649970805254791168 …

.@SamHarrisOrg Count me among those atheists. Your point about atheism is largely correct. It's just ironic that you said it.
@JayMan471 @SamHarrisOrg Basically, Atheism = Not being affiliated
@SamHarrisOrg @JayMan471 And many more of us have not taken the time to understand it well enough to have an opinion.
Helen is perhaps the only person on Twitter with the honesty and maturity to state something like that
@HPluckrose @SamHarrisOrg @JayMan471
@fbernalu Very kind! However, whilst I am not ashamed of this, I do intend to remedy it cos its interesting. Listening to Moral Arc now!
@SamHarrisOrg @JayMan471 would you make a case it is the logical conclusion of atheism? i would, and have no problem doing so.
@jayisarobot Maybe you have to be free from other dogma to accept scientific morality, but being an atheist doesn't lead to understanding.
@sisboombahbah true. I suppose nihilism or fatalism are also logical conclusions for some atheists. Though I fall in sam's camp here.
@jayisarobot Me too. The Moral Landscape is one of the most eye opening books ever. Just don't call him my guru. ;(
@sisboombahbah rather than the constant religion has nothing to do, or something to do, or a lot to do with any particular news story.
@jayisarobot I'll go with b & sometimes c.
@sisboombahbah perhaps he should have written them in the reverse order.
@jayisarobot We'll work on that after the singularity hits & we can manipulate time.
@SamHarrisOrg @JayMan471 maybe tangentially, as compared morality fostered by religionpic.twitter.com/vYQ86pgc9w
