It's not a job of religion to give answers on such a questions. It doesn't deal with morality as much, because universal moral vaules are familiar to all people. As many scientists pointed out, morality is a product of evolution.
I can't believe no one has jumped on this yet.
Are you actually saying that the church does not deal with morality?? I think most of the religious world would disagree heartily with that statement.
For many thousands of years, the church has claimed ownership of morality. In fact, defining morality is one of the single most powerful tools the church has.
If you actually believe that the church does not deal with the question of morality, you are, without question, the single most deluded person who has eve posted here.
Now, on to the second part of your statement.
It is empirically provable that morality is NOT IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM a universal constant. If that were true, children in Pakistan would not be getting shot in the face for going to school.
