"You have no moral basis from which to criticize me, you only have personal preferences, and there is no god of liberal humanism that will punish me in a way that I cannot escape if I fail to comply. "

What does this have to do with your argument?

I was responding to the text I quoted.
It's a tautology,and you seem to infer that you should not care about crossing boundaries of morality if there is no God to punish you?
I do not believe there is morality without God. The difference would only be in what I consider to lead to the greatest pleasure and the least pain for myself, after all "what I seem to owe you I owe at most to myself"
