you aren't born with morals you know. As you get older you understand what's right and wrong to do, and we get that from the bible.

  • He has a point. I see where you're coming from, but there are many ways to feed a horse, as they say. While the Bible contains many commonly accepted morals that I agree with, there are those who have no belief in God that are very morally sound without it. My half-sister and I share nearly the same exact set of morals, but she's agnostic and I'm a Christian. Just trying to clarify.

  • not the bible. none of the things this country was founded on are uniquely christian ideals. christianity shares many teachings with various other religions and philosophies.

  • It was there first though. And most of the founding fathers were protestant/christian, so they began this country with many christian ideals.

  • Thats beside the point. I said the bible and Christianity was before all the other religions so its ideals were original. They dont seem like it now cause there are so many religions that do some things similarly.
