It's not the rules, it's about the faith. e.g. If I (honestly) believe that all human beings were made equal in the image of God (whatever that may be) that would affect the way I treat people.
Some rules will came out of that belief: like "don't lie" and "don't kill" but, in it's purest form, religion is not about rules, and the fact that people don't know that means that religious institutions have failed.
- mistermann 9y agoThat's a fine theory, but to claim you know this with certainty I think is a much larger claim than you realize. What exactly makes humans behave they way they do is extremely complex - some people may behave exactly for the reason you describe, others may not, anyone that says they know for sure is not telling the truth (although that doesn't necessarily mean they're lying).
