[quote=Anonymous]The idea that people only behave morally because they fear god's retribution is absurd. Does anyone really choose not to rape, steal or murder because they are afraid of going to hell? Seems like a motivation of last resort. No, I think most people are "moral" because they feel obligated to the family, friends and community to which they belong. If you live on a desert island, or in an isolated rural area, you can do pretty much as you please because your actions do not have an impact on others. But in any sort of society, people figure out pretty quickly that bad behavior comes back to haunt you pretty quick. You don't do to others what you don't want them doing to you. That's a lesson that's learned from preschool on. God has nothing to do with it.[/quote]
