Some people talk of morality, and some of religion, but give me a little snug property.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I do not value religion chiefly for its morality.
I do not want to suggest that you have to be religious to be moral.
I have values. But morals are Christian. There's no religion here. Values. Don't hurt when you don't need to, but don't let anybody step over that line - it's an invisible line, but it's respect for somebody's space.
My morals are important to me.
Morality is of the highest importance - but for us, not for God.
Morality without religion is only a kind of dead reckoning - an endeavor to find our place on a cloudy sea by measuring the distance we have run, but without any observation of the heavenly bodies.
What we call 'morals' is simply blind obedience to words of command.
Call me old-fashioned, but I believe that morality is not just a matter of opinion.
As for morality, well that's all tied up with the question of consciousness.
Reverence for life affords me my fundamental principle of morality.
