The people who are tied to this brand of 'morality' are too close to it to ever see the evil in their own hearts.
Well, I would be the first to agree that these are great and well-established examples of Christian and Islamic morals, respectively, but I fail to see the point in you bringing them up here.
Quote: Which is a bad thing? how so? if your 'morality' is based on popular belief, and no real standards of any kind then how can you possiable know if what you are doing is truly 'moral'/Righteous?
I suppose we can invent a higher power to endorse our moral code so that idiots believe that our moral code is better than everybody else's. You are a perfect example of how well that approach works.
