Bible based morality is nothing but a copy of preceding ethnic and
religious virtues. William Sierichs, Jr. in the Jan-Feb 1995 issue of _The
American Rationalist_ article, "The Pagan Origins of Biblical Morality"
documents dozens of exact predecidents to Moses' commandments, Jesus'
Beatitudes and other examples of biblical morality. When will you guys
learn to quit trying to take credit for originating something that is a
part of basic human nature, no gods required?
