To whom does an atheist complain?
Once he recognized that there was an objective and universal standard of justice being violated, he realized he had no explanation for the existence of such a standard. He had to assume that there was a God who gave absolute moral laws in order to complain to that God about inconsistencies and injustice. He then recognized his own circular reasoning. The very idea of holding to an absolute standard presupposes a creator who gave us that standard. Without God, not only is there no basis for moral law, but there is no basis for complaint and no one to whom to complain.
