I do not need any book to tell me what is right and what is wrong....nor do I need anyone to tell me that killing is just plain wrong......or that stealing is unacceptable, but all our laws are based in religion.
Somehow being anti-religion or anti-Christian has become fashionable....and that cannot be good for society as a whole......because if you take faith out of the equation something else will fill that void....and from where I'm standing, that something else looks particularly unsavoury.
Just for the record, I am not being evangelical, or preaching any faith or doctrine.....I am just stating my point of view(other points of view are available and are just as valid).
I do not subscribe to any organised faith or political party....I follow the beat of my own drum.
