A secular morality seeks to better individual morality by contributing and bettering societal morality. A theistic morality seeks to better individual morality by using a more dogmatic and stable reference depending on their brand of theology.

A Atheistic morality is enforced in a person wanting to live a good a fair life in this world as they believe this is the only one they have. A Theistic morality is enforced in a person due to threats of hell if bad and the reward of heaven if good. Would that be fair to say? Tongue
