"you do not need a God to know right from wrong"

This is questionable Big Jim because you say this while immersed in a Judeo Christian culture that gave you laws and morals and values handed down from the distant past through generations...right down to your parents who handed them on to you.

It's like saying "I don't need history or philosophy or religion or role models because I would have gotten here on my own"

Like it or not, you have been and continue to be influenced by the world you live in...

Then on another level, in the absence of this cultural "taming" and civilizing influence, perhaps you do not have to worry about yourself...but you'd sure have to worry about "the other guy"

In fact, the very existence of our Judeo Christian beliefs gives you the luxury of choosing not to believe
