I have never read anywhere in the Bible about Noah having a black son who was seen as inferior. If someone actually used this as an excuse to justify slavery, then it is completely unfounded in the Christian faith. I would chalk that up to an individual trying to find some excuse to justify something that he knew to be wrong, and eventually everyone else just started using that same excuse. Everyone knows that slavery is wrong, however, slavery was a great way to make money back then. For a small cost, you could have free labor for literally generations.

If we don't need religion to know what is morally right or wrong, where would you say we get it from?
Religion has been around since the beginning of recorded history, in fact, it's one of the reasons we know what happened in the early world. If it wasn't for monks or scribes or other religious people, we would not know much of what we know today about the past.

I fail to see where I affirmed that society gives the standard for morals, if you don't mind I would love for you to explain your statement more.

At the end of the day, this is a video game forum. I know that what I am saying is most likely contrary to the popular opinion here. In no way do I want to derail this thread for its intended purpose which was to bring attention to the tragedy of what happened in Paris. My heart, thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Paris and those who have died and those who have lost their loved ones.

So I think we can all agree that humans have morals and from those come moral laws. If there are moral laws there must be a moral lawgiver, whether that be society or a religious entity. The question I was asking was where do we get them from?

I find the thinking that society gives us morals flawed. A few examples are since the beginning of America until the 1900's minorities were oppressed through slavery and denial of natural rights. Back then, no one thought that was wrong, society said, "Yes, these people are inferior and it is morally acceptable to have slaves or oppress these people." Another example would be that in the 1940's in Germany, it was morally acceptable, in German society, to kill six million Jews.

Not trying to single out David, just the easiest post to quote.

Assuming we do not get our morals from religion, then where do we get them?

All I did was ask a question about Kaneco's views, instead of arguing ad hominem, would you care to answer the question?

Can you go deeper into this? I am just curious about why you think a world without religion would be better.

Life on earth wouldn't exist without water. Even though the water on mars was found to be extremely salty, it wouldn't be impossible to extract it to make it drinkable water if we ever tried a mission on mars.
