Stereotyping & Religion

We have done nothing to deserve this. It is God laws . All we have to do is follow the plan. That is another reason why human life is sacred . Is there an edit button on this forum ? Please let me know.>>>

Hitler was an extreme example of someone who didn't listen to the still small voice. Wherever Hell is he there. God stamped his laws on our hearts and they are our compass if we listen.The benefits for this world is health happiness love and knowing the>>>

I think the cannibal analogy brings up a good point. Knowing the difference between right and wrong! Once you know that something is legally wrong, to continue to do it is a crime. Punishable etc.... When it comes to religious law, I would have to co>>>

No. If it were, our parents wouldn't have needed to teach us right and wrong. Very very few of those whose parents did not teach right from wrong, did not end up in big trouble. Prison are chock full of the c>>>

I don't have any problem with the notion that God is an extra-terrestrial being.

Also don't have any problem with God as a crutch. God knows I could use one lol. Much better God as a crutch, than alcohol, drugs, hedonism, materialism, me-ism, and many>>>

I am very interested in the topic of where the moral code came from. With further investigation in our lives we can only admit to what we have formed or opinions around. Where do these markers come from ? What makes sense to me is in every human born ther>>>
