Never said that morality was invented in the Old Testament or New. . .


What you said in a thread titled with the 10C is this:

Where do people think our notions of crime and punishment come from? Right/wrong?

If you were implying our country only, I can agree to a degree. If you are saying all notions come from the 10C, I can't disagree strongly enough.

Sorry for the stupid remark, I just hate religions that think they have a patent on morality.

Well, I really feel the same way about that; just did not want to expand beyond the 'colloqial' issue here of the relevancy of the The Ten Commandments and their place in 'America's Moral history' so to speak; and that history unfolding. . .

Let me just add to that how sick I am of Liberals using the delete key on our history; our language (PC);our traditions;social and religious and cultural.

This is just one more 'hit'. . .
