[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 4108689, member: 18225"] Re: Science: I said Logic and Reason. It's clearly possible to derive morals from Logic and Reason. If you want to call those concepts 'science', have at it. Maybe read a book aside from the Bible. Re: BrownArmy's Morals: I personally wouldn't choose 'wrong' morals, because I wouldn't call wrong ideas, concepts or actions 'morals'; you're making a daft distinction. ...[I][URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morality'][B]Morality[/B][/URL] (from [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_language']Latin[/URL]: moralis, [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literal_translation']lit.[/URL] 'manner, character, proper behavior') is the differentiation of [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intention']intentions[/URL], decisions and [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_actions']actions[/URL] between those that are distinguished as proper and those that are improper[/I]... Look, if you believe that 'morals' can only come from a religious text (yours), than that's what you believe. I don't believe that. Do you think I can have morals and lead a moral life if I don't get those morals from the Bible? [/QUOTE]
