what are we supposed to say again when christians ask us where we get our morality?
RE: what are we supposed to say again when christians ask us where we get our morality?
Where our morals come from can differ significantly. Personally mine come mainly from my parents' teaching and my own views of society as a whole, I am able to make my own mind and think critically on every problem, putting pro and con arguments and making my final decision (that can be changed if latter a better argument is presented). Personally I think the majority of morals tends to be subjective, however I also believe a small circle (eg not killing, killing is wrong etc) to be objective simply because all society regardless of religion has embraced such morals (only a minority of mentally ill people will support murder as a recreational activity)
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
