Religion isn't important to me.  I'm a Christian and the most important thing to me is Faith in God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit.  I know that I am saved through God's grace.  I believe that Jesus died for my sins and that a person should strive every day to be the best person they can be.  God Bless.

I believe the religion which respects the humanity, irrespective of what religion one belongs.  \nAll religions teach good. The wrong lies in the minds that interpret. All religions uphold the truth and  say the way of truth is the way to GOD.  \nAny one insulting other religion, foolishly sticks on to the word rather than the right meaning. All radii of a circle reach to a comom centre.

Yes and no.\n\nSome people need religion more than others. Religion is a guidance to how one should behave in public and private. It teaches people how to be fair, how to love, how to think when one does not have parents who teaches him/her. Religion is a spring broad, a tool, but it should not be the answer to all problems. Religion teaches morals. It does not specifically help you live your life. It teaches shame, humility and dos and don'ts, but how you live is up to your interpretation.\n\nWhen someone takes religion to an extreme, that's when trouble happens. This is when the world is not at a better place due to religion.\n\nYou will also have the opposite extreme or no religion, no morals, and that's no okay either. Crimes will take place all over, no one would feel safe. It will be survival of the fittest. The law is built on ethical and moral beliefs. If it were not for religion, who would it be to judge that an ax murderer will get life or get off scott free?\n\nTo answer your question, and it is a good one that you are asking, If religion were never to have existed, we may still have ethics and moral, because they are part of religion, but at the same time, no religious people are still ethical and have their own set of morals that they live by (common sense and logic).\n\nAs for now, we do live in a society that has religion and I don't feel that we are in a better place, because at the moment, the other side of the world is fighting over religion and who has the right religion or the better religion. Why can't we all just get along?

Well the term legal is straight forward - what the country/city/county where you live considers to be allowable under the law.  \n\nThe term right is much more subjective.  This is determined by an individuals morals and personal beliefs.  So what is right is very different from a Catholic, to a Mormon, to a Muslim, etc.

No religion is the best because they are all corrupt.\n\nNo religious group is the best . . . because they are all vain and self-centered.\n\nDo want to follow the best . . . follow what is in your heart and not what is taught.

I think that God's teachings tell you what is right and if you truly follow the heart of say the 10 commandments, and love everybody, you will choose to do what is right. Your conscience is God's gift to us to help us in our free will. People will always be tested and will not always pass their tests with the "best" answer or response. Your belief in God and your faith is a matter between you and God. The outward appearances that people put forth are a reflection of what they want other people to think, and cannot accurately show what is in somebody's heart. That is between a person and God. You can live a good life and lose it all in the last breath, or live a terrible life and realize Faith at the last moment. Who are we to judge people's characters?

Congratulations!I don't think so your doing anything wrong nor you should worry as religion is a personal thing that each individual should respect regardless of what one follows as long as you guys don't let the aspect of religion come into your love and marriage nothing can go wrong!Have a wonderful life and all the best!I strongly agree with your point that its not important what religion you follow but the most important thing is Your Actions or Karma as most of the religion believe that they follow the right path but i feel its wrong coz all religion takes you to one path i.e to God so its more important to be mindful of our own actions than spend rest of the life figuring out which religion is the best as it doesn't matter whether one is Christian,muslim or jew or hindu or buddhist as all faith takes us to one supreme power i.e GOD.People spend all their life thinking that their path or faith is right but in reality all  religions are different ways of reaching the truth so don't worry, people need to have a more open mind and it so sad that people just don't think!

There is no official right religion. The right religion is the one that you're happy with.

As an agnostic I do believe in morals values and preserving this little aquarium in space that we all live in. But being athiest does not make you any more moralistic or less than a religious person. Studies have shown that secular people have \nthe same morals as church folk. I would dare say that more have died in religously driven wars and disputes than common murder

Push the religious "right" out of power and influence.  Those who cry the loudest about moral values or family values seem to be the least moral of all.\n\nThose who seek to push their beliefs on others are neither moral or right (i.e. conservative).  \n\nWe improve the true moral character of our leaders our image will follow.

I think it would be safer to generalize by saying that immoral people tend to be more stupid than people with higher morals.  Low moral people think with their genitals, high moral people think with their hearts and minds.  They don't trade what they want MOST (happiness) for what they want NOW (sex or acceptance.)

From the way the question is worded, I would have to say that person A seems to be the better person since he has learned will power.  This isn't something easily done.  It at least shows that he's intelligent.  Person B sounds like Forrest Gump.\n\nIf you're asking which person has the higher moral value...well, you'll never know which of the two is better in that context until person B has an evil thought.  It is then, and only then, will you know if person B has the will power not to act on his evil thought.  However, if your hypothetical person B can never get an evil thought, then person B is the better one since he's all good.

Morality is usually concerned with personal issue whereas ethics is concerned when issue takes into account another person.

YES, Morals are your belief system. Ethics are our populas/public view of how things should be or are which ever the case.

None whatsoever.  I'm not religious.\n\nI am, however, a good, moral person.  So dont judge me.

This is only the point of view of SOME Christians.  I believe a truly good man who lives a life of honour and integrity; who does not harm anyone in body or mind; who respects everybody in the same way that he would like to be respected, and who tries to be the very best that he can be, is much more likely to enter the Kingdom of Heaven than a bigoted Christian.
