Um.. how can I hate you? My religion, My God, and myself won't let me.
But to say that there is no good or evil, which is what you are saying when
there is no difference between a police officer and a psycho murderer, is to
deny that one is human.
Religion is not the number one killer. It is not the scourge of the
universe. The hypocracies of the people who practice it are.
I don't speak from anger or hatred. Only from irritation at a genuine sense
of confusion of the hatred shown toward me. Unearned and unasked for.
How do I know what is good and which is evil? Listen to your surroundings
and your self, and if you believe in God, him as well, and you will know.
Logic is not a god. You cannot explain instinct and the innate sense that
each of us is given to use or ignore as we please. Moral relativism is only
dot-print; thousands of black and white dots that when looked at from far
away form only a grey area. Look closer, deep within oneself, and you will
see that there is a truth for everything.
For me, I continue that search daily.
