I don’t like hurting people, it just doesn’t make me feel very good. I don’t need God to tell me not to randomly beat people to death.
Is God the only thing stopping the religious from going on killing rampages?

Just where do you think you got the rationalization of good or bad?
This isn’t about the emotions you have in this regards, because in your own theory, those are just lumps of impulses.
Tell us where ‘good’ comes from if not a source of good.
You cannot have an agent that doesnt exist from a source.
Er, you sure you read my post correctly, cause I don’t have a flippin’ clue what your yammering on about.
Well, if you didn’t infer they were savages then you agree they were civil, had a role of leadership, sought out the sun, moon and other dynamics in life to worship as a god because in their perception someone did indeed create them.
THOSE are all God given laws in the heart.
Which was the point.
I think it’s not the scriptures that are in error, but the mistranslations of them which is causing you greater angst towards them than necessary.
You gotta crawl before you can walk, sport. Intelligence didn’t happen overnight. It builds, and humans have built it, and thrived on it, and even misused it.
That’s another thing that makes the theory [which as i said science recently debunked] about mankind forming of themselves and coming up with laws, rules according to good or evil, is intelligence.
Why does only the human species have the intelligence to create homes, make fires, trade, use civility, and study animals around them that are pretty ‘not in the know’ of what we are doing and why.
How come mankind has this sort of superior intelligence and nothing else does?
How did a single celled - o wait - that was debunked too.
How did dirt [which science has prooven where man came from - which is so late - considering Genesis said that 6000 years ago] how did dirt create man when its not even capable of being alive or creating by itself…?
And how come we have one ‘family’ that can be tied back to one set of parents [in Africa?] and we don’t have like several different lines of sub human type species?
I mean why stop at one type.
Miraculous dirt surely can create more on its own…right?
