You know what I find interesting about this discussion? No one has
even
attempted to answer my question. Some of you have tried to dance around an
answer, hide
from it, deflect it, change the discussion, or parry and counter-thrust because
you
wrongly assume my questions are a defense of a religious based moral code and
an attacking
thrust against any non-divinely originated moral code as baseless and wrong.
Interesting.
Socrates would be smiling. So, I'll ask it again with no intent of being
judgmental. If
you do not accept the existence of a divine entity and thus the validity of a
divinely
ordained moral code, what is the source or origin or base or criteria or root
for the
moral code you do accept and strive to follow?
I'm into my garden. Got to get 700 caladium and lily bulbs into
the ground
before I leave to teach in China.
Make it a good day.
