(June 21, 2015 at 4:48 pm)Catholic_Lady Wrote: I believe He created morality, and if it weren't for Him, there would be no such thing. But a person does not need to believe in God to make moral choices. Does that make my position more clear to you?

The second part I have address numerous times all throughout this very thread. Even as recently as just a few pages back, if you want to look.
So how do we as humans know about this "god originated" morality? Is our only source a bunch of stitched together stories we call the bible?

Quote:Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever” Genesis 3:22 NASB

It appears that according to the bible, we "magically" attained the perfect skill of knowing right from wrong by eating a magic fruit. God had tried to keep it from us, but our Hero Eve snatched that skill right from behind god's back, making us on equal footing with god. If our hero Eve had been able to grab the other magic fruit in time... we'd all be gods!!!


So silly.. sooo sad..
