Wrong, it was relgious belief that created morality. Morality didnt exist before it, you can tell because the 1st morality started with our non human ancestors who were still evolving, they came from animals and thier 1st act of morality was to bury the dead with thir favorite posessions, or food. Because they thought they would need it in some afterlife.
Religion was developed 1st, the morality came after.
What we have today for moral ethics are the results of 1000s of years of religious influence. Not natural instincts, in fact morality usually goes against natural instinct. |
