… ethical principle is simply your imagination. You may say that we should act like this and shouldn't act like that - for example - that we should be kind to other people. But if there is no God, then it's just your own view. What if someone has a different view?

 

And if there is a God, then our bodies belong to Him. If there is a God, certainly He made this body. And this body belongs to Him. And if there isn't a God, it just belongs to whoever can get their dirty hands on it. Whoever gets their hands on this body, it belongs to them. Period. You may say, "No! That's not right!" But if there's no God, then what does it even mean to say right and wrong? Things just are.

 

So in any case, how can we claim that's it's our body? If there's a God or isn't a God, in what sense does this body belong to us?
