How do religions inspire people to be good?
#4
RE: How do religions inspire people to be good?
for the external observer, scripture cherry picking is a big help in keeping the religious folks from committing all manner of odious and creepy behavior (still menstruating? better go kill some more birds, and your husband had better kill a couple just to be sure)

However, Scripture cherry picking is predicated on the pew warmer assuming they know more than God about how things otta be done, so it is a vile abomination to do so.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
