But when do I get to kill people?

Seriously, I think you and I agree—Sam Harris can’t really run a shortcut around all moral debate the way he’s claiming he can. All he’s really doing is telling people who share a certain set of values that they should go ahead and act according to those values because everyone else is heinous and “not worth listening to.”
