changing of molecules what makes you more important than the random collection of molecules that makes up a black widow spider? In 50 to 100 years all of the molecules that make up "you" will all be rearranged into some other random collection of molecules. Perhaps some will be in a piece of bird poop, others may be part of some rock, yet others, sediment floating down towards the Gulf of Mexico.
If there is no God then your thoughts are really just electrons flowing through your brain, all according to the laws of nature. You really have no free will, your thoughts just reflect how the laws of nature directed those electrons from synapse to synapse.
Is a lion "immoral" for killing a zebra and eating it? Would it be immoral for that lion to kill you or anyone else? Why should it be "immoral" for a human to kill or rape another human if that is what those electrons flowing through his brain according to the laws of nature are telling him to do?
