Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey
Gryphen, Have you seen this Ted talk? I think you would really be interested if you haven't. It is a talk by a psychologist about the moral mind. http://www.ted.com/talks/jonathan_haidt_on_the_moral_mind?language=en
I think many religions are arrogant in their beliefs and their need to make people conform to their views, instead of letting other people have their OWN views.
As Lion said in "The Wizard of Oz": Ain't it da troot! Ain't it da troot!

I have raged against this proverbial arrogance of mankind since I was young (never mind why) and I thank you for posting this.
ReplyDeleteExactly.
ReplyDeleteLove it, but isn't the term "religious thinking" an oxymoron?
