| 91. What do we adhere to? |
|
We adhere to moral conduct. Do no harm. What you do to one, you do to all. Treat others the way you want to be treated.
There are outstanding people of character & compassion in every group, believers and non, just like there are real shits in every group.
Morality is about how you conduct yourself, not what you believe.
Let me ask you a question. If there were suddenly proof that God doesn't exist, how much would your behvaior change? Is it only your belief in God that adheres you to a moral path?
