“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 The basis of religions is to exercise connection with gods and deities, which is cool, but why this has been so traditionally indoctrinated with morals has always been a bit strange to me.

But at the same time, some are also about exercising connection of the mind and mindfulness, and your morals will be influenced heavily by them.

It’s an interesting conversation.
