    I'm an atheist, and have been for over 40 years. I believe that these Religious Scholars are scholars of a thing that is not a thing. I wonder what their view of my moral status is, and whether it differs significantly from their pronouncements about the status of ai models?

      Turns out it’s very difficult to make a philosophical case for morality without presupposing the existence of a God.

        no it’s not. that’s the whole point of humanism.
