MobBoss said:Why not? The one single common denominator of all civilizations all throughout history all over the world is religion is it not? The old adage of "do unto others as they would do unto you" is a religious saying, not an athiest one.
Animals, they seem to have moral codes, without religion, they have developmental practices that are consistant with small groups from which their behaviour is derived, but again your making an argument based on this exists and I can debate what happens when it doesn't again, no logic.
