“One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all.”—Arthur C. Clarke
@teacherbuknoy They don't automatically assume, it is taught. If not directly saying this, religion has this ingrained. As always it's us vs. them, we are moral, others are not because they believe wrong stuff.
And they say it so confidently, as an atheist I was at the recieving end. And to add, it was my GF at that time that said it. She should know my moral compass.
