Christian "Morality"
#1
Christian "Morality"
Christians do the right thing for fear of hell.

I do the right thing because I don't fear hell.

How can christians be "moral" if their only reason to do something is out of fear? When did fear justify good behavior? When did fear justify righteousness?

Discuss.
