Is religion needed to teach us morality?

Fun fact: not everyone thinks the same way you do. We don't base things on beliefs. We base them on facts. And that makes them a great deal more potent than mere opinion.

In your opinion....
Sorry Pasch, I couldn't let that go by.
 
Christianity teaches us morals which make us better. Without Christianity people will lose all moral grounds and such things as killing and stealing may become totally acceptable. .

Were there societies and laws that thought that murder was immoral and wrong prior to Christianity? Why, yes there were.

That's kinda what we see now; all sorts of perversions are getting justified and destigmatized and it's only a matter of time when the things we consider as completely disgusting and unacceptable (pedophilia, zoophilia, incest, etc.) will be considered as normal

Do pedophilia, zoophilia, incest exist in Christian society? Why, yes they do.

This whole post is some kind of whack.
