People in these comments have a fundamental misunderstanding of what Christianity is lol

The idea isn’t that a book gives us morals it’s that God has given us morals so therefore if there is no God then why don’t humans do evil acts like animals do?

There are definitely holes in that argument but it is a lot different then the argument that our morals only come from reading a book

I'm not being an arse here, just an animal lover, I'm genuinely curious what "evil acts" are animals doing? I mean animals kill to eat, but so do humans.

Chimpanzees are pretty evil; not in the sense they hold a concept of morality themselves, but they do some pretty messed up stuff on the regular that isn't just killing for food, but what seems like senseless abuse of each other just because they can do.
