I mean, if that's their genetic programming, and their simply obeying their natural animal behavior patterns which came from lesser evolved primates, how can anyone say objectively that this is wrong, and not just by an opinionated standard?
The bible is an example of just this - a few people writing down what they feel shouldn't be allowed, not an objective moral standard handed down from god.
So, how do you explain the 10 commandments which are the back bone of every civilised society?
Interesting that in the poll the 1st question relates to Santa, a figure who is adored and revered every year, and also someone we actively encourage our children to believe in. What does this say about our twisted understanding of right and wrong?!!
