Topic: how do you tell right from wrong?

i put my faith in the BIBLE and that's where i get my morals from.not from my heart. if i did what my heart said then anything i did would be alright but since you follow a book written by man, anything you do is right? the bible was written by HOLY men not just some person off the street And what about all those "Holy" men who were molesting those boys? And, as I have already proven, for every part of the bible that tells us to be good, there is a part written that isn't in line with the morality we know today. So, either you take only the good, and leave the bad, which makes you a hypocrite, or you accept everything in the bible as good, which makes you a liar. i never said said there aren't bad people who use christ as a shield to do bad things.and as far as molesting kids i think they should be tortured over and over again(you can never give a child back their innocence)

Have you talked to enough of the people who live(or lived) over there to make that generalization? I have been to that region, I have talked with enough of the locals to be able to form a real opinion. Before you go and judge other people(that is a sin, that you go to hell for, right?) Keep in mind that Christianity has its equivalent to the Taliban. . .

if i did what my heart said then anything i did would be alright Boy, that's truly sad. I guess religion has its place for those who have no sense of morals without it. However, the bottom line is that Jesus didn't teach anything different from Buddha as far as morals are concerned. So why the Bible? Is it the threat of punishment that keeps you in line? Or a lust for the reward of eternal life?

Maybe it came from my parents who taught me common sense, maybe it comes from having a brain and actually using it.

YES I HAVE.i'll be forgive for mine!! do you have kids i don't care who you are you'd fight to death to protect your kids With your behavior on, here, if you are right and there is a god, then I shall see you in hell, because your judgment has condemned you. If I am right, then you have nothing to worry about. I currently do not have children. But at least I know not to brainwash them.
