We take these principles for granted today because Western societies are built on humanistic principles that are based on compassion and the principle that there isn't anything wrong with doing something if that doesn't harm others. And it took centuries for people to come to that realization.
But, as I said, religious people hold to the commands from their religious books, like "kill people of other religions" or "kill gays", and that is why religion doesn't offer any morality. All that religion does is say "this is bad because God says so" without giving any explanation - making it taboo (and not morality).
Abrahamic ones atleast have a tendency to rely much on autocratic notion of society that is about purely focus on devotion (or atleast traditional Christianity and Sunni islam for one reason). It explains why their idea of heaven is not to focus so much on this world, aka math, science, education, helping next generation of people to advance, only ok if it is for the sake of God and not what they will subjectively deem as vanity. Because why should you if you can just hang out with a personal God and all that? Protestant Christianity, i will give credit they did atleast develop a work culture, i assume its due to not relying on church traditions like catholics did. So it was easier to overall accept intellectuals during Martin Luther days, as compared to having absolute control of what was ok and what is a no no. Despite how fundamentalists is a problem in this day and age with politics and such
Apparently Buddhism has a thing where math seems to be encouraged by Buddha himself. Or i had some talk on it in math class yesterday
