    Oregon Shooter was Mormon?!

    A Mormon shot people, therefore Mormons are bad people. Did I miss anything or is that your point?

    Why did Cain kill his brother Abel in Genesis 4:8?

    If you were interested in asking only scientists, I suggest you send an email to someone with a PhD in their title. Instead, you have asked a religious education community. I while, not being an accredited scientist, understand the very basics of evolution. Depriving others of resources will...

    Why did Cain kill his brother Abel in Genesis 4:8?

    Jealousy, as an evolutionary development, is less about depriving another (envy) and more about accumulating resources for yourself (greed). It has very little to do with perceptions of superiority and inferiority. Seriously, Cain and Abel have nothing to do with it.

    world wide flood?

    And how often has that been true?

    world wide flood?

    Which they were, obviously. Yes. The relationship is that people witness flooding and that stories are prone to exaggeration by repeated telling.

    Are Better Morals the Solution?

    Oh, then of course I think laws have moral meaning. They are directing people towards acting a certain way that is socially considered right (sometimes only because "it's the law"). Again, I don't think it's the best way of creating better morality, but it works for some.

    Another Example of Blatant Dishonesty from a Creationist...

    Does it count if they're dishonest with themselves?

    Are Better Morals the Solution?

    You might have to define "moral meaning" in this context.

    Are Better Morals the Solution?

    Behavior creates judgment and vice versa.

    'Man was created in the image of G-d'

    So, you're saying that as long as someone looks at something a certain way, they aren't looking at it any other way. How exactly was that a relevant statement?

    'Man was created in the image of G-d'

    I guess that negates the whole "No matter how you look at it" part of your point.

    if i masturbate will i go to hell?

    They have that covered. Apparently it's okay for married couples to have sex whenever they want regardless of likelihood of pregnancy. They're "upholding the spirit of marriage".

    Depending on trust only, not a good idea.

    "But thus I counsel you, my friends: Mistrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful. They are people of a low sort and stock; the hangman and the bloodhound look out of their faces. Mistrust all who talk much of their justice! Verily, their souls lack more than honey. And when they call...

    Are Better Morals the Solution?

    Some people only have morals because they keep them out of jail. It's a sad reality.

    Are Better Morals the Solution?

    If there is a method to achieve it. I would wager most people would simply need moral legal laws to hold them in place.

    Are Better Morals the Solution?

    It's a solution, but it's not a method of attaining the solution. If I want someone to do something better, I'll explain to them how to do it better. I won't get anywhere yelling "You're doing it wrong! Get better!"
