We all know right from wrong. It doesn't need a religion. Humans have been around for over 200,000 years, and we have survived the harshest climates, including an ice age. They did that without religion.Not exactly. Morals and ethics are based upon reason. Morals are effectively standards. For any given thing there exists a standard which is the highest possible standard. This standard exists independent of anything else. It is in effect a universal standard. It exists for a reason. When we deviate from this standard and normalize our deviance from the standard, eventually the reason the standard exists will be discovered. The reason this happens is because error cannot stand. Eventually error will fail and the truth will be discovered. Thus proving that morals cannot be anything we want them to be but are indeed based upon some universal code of common decency that is independent of man.So reason is like morals and values and ethics.
Also wrong. Again, for any organization there will be a distribution. You are ignoring the good. Your view of history and religion is unbalanced. You are literally proving my point about subjectivity.Just doesn't exist in militant religions like the trilogy religions... All you know revolves around killing others and genocide. That's how you got where you are today.
