Permanently confused
Hang on to your chalks and choaks there mountain man. I am not bitter..just getting worn out on the nonsense religion has imposed on the human race.
I am hopeful that people will come to thier senses and start thinking smarter and acting better towards one another.
I feel similar to your first statement above except recently I've come to understand why someone has faith, regardless of whether its rational or not. I am angry, or frustrated, or bitter, or all of the above because of the detriment religion has been to the advancement of the human race and for the arbitrary rules/traditions/laws/cultural guidelines that I have to follow in order not to go to jail, to be a social outcast, or what have you because of religious scripture and its base in not-observable reality.
I am hopeful that those who do have faith and are part of an organized religion understand why those of us who don't have faith, don't, and why not everyone has to live by the standards imposed by their gods.
Faith and religious belief should be personal. Observable reality should be the basis of policy, law, tradition, and culture. And, Cecilie and Againsheila, so should human psychology.
You should study anthropology, you might have a better appreciation for religion, and it's absolute necessity to having got us to where we are now. Your idea of religionless morality is too utopian to be workable in the past, now, or the foreseeable future.
I'd argue that morality preceded religion. I'd argue that "morality" is just a set of rules humans invented so that they could cooperate and get on with each other. I'd also argue that religion is a powerful social controller and subsumed the original rules.
