We need, to be whole people, to find our own ideas of morality


You do realize that this idea has just as much room for abuse? A rapist has his own ideas about morality. So does a suicide bomber. Or a child abuser.

I'm not for state sponsored religion, but the basic tenents of moral code as they apply in most cultures are sound (Don't kill, don't steal, try to be a good neighbor).

Some culture's moral code goes too far (hide your women in a giant black bag and don't let her drive!).

The religious impulse is VERY old... you can't expunge it from the world so easily. Science is a validated belief system but it fails to provide what many people hunger for.. a sense of mystery.
