I think it's a poor choice to approach the issue of atheist morality as 'commandments.' The word implies a commander, a source of such commands, which must be obeyed. This is a very theistic concept, and feels out of place in an atheist context. What is the source of atheist 'commandments,' and why does it deserve an atheist's respect? Is it Flying Pig?
