goodadventures (11/26/2012) [-] Modern society creates your morals, the christian bible calls for slavery and treats women as a second class citizen, but you know this to be wrong (hopefully) which wasn't and didn't need to be taught to you through religion.
It's very arrogant to believe you need religion for morals and to me it seems also very insulting to religious people, it implies your actions are simply done for the belief in a reward of eternal paradise and a fear of eternal torture.

We have an appropriate saying where i live:
"If Kali steals a cow, it's a good deed. If someone steals a cow from Kali, it's a bad deed."
Are you saying that it's OK to think like Kali? I don't and i'll never accept such thing. If someone is unwilling to follow the most basic rules that are essential to be a part of society, then yes, that someone is a dick.

The Golden rule is the closest answer i can give, since there is no such thing as an arbitrary rule. We, as humanity, chose to condemn certain behaviors, because they act as a detriment to society we built. That's all there is to it, whether you like it or not.

notsixroller (11/26/2012) [-] And I am saying that the Golden Rule is not a satisfactory answer for you to give, and that you should endeavour to explore this in your own time, not out of spite of myself. But because it ought to be done.
If you are indeed an advocate of Aristotle, you ought to agree.
