As presented in that quote, it would seem to match what you said. Do you agree?
I guess I would agree with it. I certainly agree with Adrian about morality having a basis in evolution. I also wanted to clarify that Jesus's Golden rule is not the same as other expressions of this rule, which many Christians are not aware of. (Also that Jesus didn't come up with it)
