Skepticism and Atheism

I'm reading a book by Mitch Stokes on skepticism: How to be an Atheist: Why Many Skeptics Aren't Skeptical Enough. From the "Forward" by J.P. Moreland:

...for a long time I have thought that while atheists claimed to embody the virtue of skepticism and, thus, have rationality on their side, the truth of the matter is that many, if not most, atheists employ a selective skepticism. They are skeptical of anything that supports theism, but they are not skeptical enough of some their own beliefs as atheists.

So, this is what the book is about: how to challenge atheists on the basis of their worldview - skepticism.

I'm not going to do a systematic review of the book, but I'll share things that I find interesting and that others may find interesting, too.

Here's the first entry. Duke University philosopher of science, Alexander Rosenberg, shares the answers that his science-based worldview provides:

Is there a God? No.
What is the nature of reality? What physics says it is.
What is the purpose of the universe? There is none.
What is the meaning of life? Ditto.
Why am I here? Just dumb luck...
Is there free will? Not a chance.
What is the difference between right and wrong, good and bad? There is no moral difference between them.
Why should I be moral? Because it makes you feel better than being immoral.
Is abortion, euthanasia, suicide, paying taxes, foreign aid, or anything else you don't like forbidden, permissible, or something obligatory? Anything goes.

 This should be a fun read.
