  1. Absolutely correct.

  2. I prefer people who are reasonable but who also understand that man is not the highest authority.

  3.  @sebcw1204  No, it isn't. The highest authority is axiomatic, it exists beyond our system. No system can be fully proven by the rules of the system itself.

  4.  @sebcw1204  That means your position is that everything is arbitrary and has little meaning. What one man says is right, another could say it's wrong...moral relativism does not lend well to a free and civil society.

  5.  @pat77pat  When you can explain to me how the universe, and everything that's in it, was created, let me know. I can tell you that humans certainly didn't create it.

  6.  @sebcw1204  Those man made systems are derived from, and based on, a higher authority. Of course, we require manmade systems to translate universal moral ideas into a functioning framework...that's why humankind was gifted logic and reason.

  7.  @sebcw1204  No, this has absolutely nothing to do with organized religion, but reason.

  8.  @sebcw1204  Rebellion comes when the "ruling class" is no longer meeting its obligation to administer justice based on natural law. Yes, it's a concept based on the rigorous application of reason and logic. This is why humankind was bestowed with abstract thinking.

  9.  @sebcw1204  Please explain what you mean by "meaning is derived from the person"? Is that similar to saying "my truth" might be different than "your truth"? There is no such thing as a universal truth?

  10.  @pat77pat  No, it's called proof by induction.

  11.  @pat77pat  You don't even know what that is. It's math, you know, SCIENCE!!! 😉

  12.  @gsmith6595  Why are you so miserable? This is a sincere question...I would really like to know.

  13.  @dark14life  Nonsense.

  14.  @gsmith6595  Well, you're certainly entitled to your opinion, but your statement does seem to infer you're not a happy person, I was sincerely curious. There is a lot of good in the world, I just hope you can see that.

  15.  @gsmith6595  You just proved my point.

  16.  @dimitritome5118  No, it's just unscrupulous people who use religion to prey on good people. The values espoused by Christianity are good. Anything can be misused for nefarious purposes.
