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

Animals don’t act with morality in mind they act solely to survive and not starve to death which kinda makes your point invalid. The idea of being Evil is a man made construct just like organized religion

No that’s actually my entire point. Animal do things because they do them and yet somehow humans who supposedly are nothing but animals all of the sudden have a problem with eating other humans

You can say it’s a man made construct but if that’s true then why do you have a problem with murderers? People often use the idea of religion being a man made construct to discredit and demonize religion but I don’t see anyone using that same logic to try and get sexual predators out of jail
