Does Christian Morality Stand on its Own?
#11
RE: Does Christian Morality Stand on its Own?
The thoughts of Chairman Jesus, huh? Okay.

Quote:Matthew 7:12

New International Version (NIV)
12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.


Unfortunately for the jesus freaks we have this:

Quote:"Do not to your neighbor what you would take ill from him."

--from Pittacus of Mytilene c 580 BC ) who sort of beats ole jebus by 500 years with the Golden Rule which would be really impressive if there weren't even earlier examples from Egypt.\

Jesus' "morality" seems little more than a re-hash of common folk wisdom in the ANE.
