So why do they feel remorseful when they are eventually arrested
Or why did the law go after them
So you definition of evil is when the doer is remorseful? This guy you are funny.

[color=royalblue]Do you have any proof of this?

To be honest, we all have been exposed to some form of religion. I laughed when I saw here that China is irreligious .....Says who?

Only about 20% of Chinese are Atheists. The rest have one form of religion or the other.

Because you are irreligious doesn't mean you are not exposed to it.

I doubt if there's anyone who was born and grew up to old age, without any exposure to any form of religion.[/color]

Melvyn, do you realize you are making my point for me?

The irreligious/ never been exposed to any form of religion/ atheists amongst the serial killer in the same society, who are not serial killers or scammers but frown upon killing and fraud, what were they influenced by?
All atheist or irreligious are still influenced by religious beliefs.

There are no consequences for Jehovah Witness members because they don't celebrate Christmas. Nobody flogs them, so that example can not be applied.

Now, let me ask you ...

Are there consequences under Sharia as practiced in the North for alcohol use or "improper" dressing?

I await your answer..
Are they consequences if a lady wears trousers to a church that forbids it? Yes. Does that make the church evil? Your answer is right there.

The embolden is all I need because you have made my point. Before your current morality, religious morality I must add, how did humans decipher evil from bad?

Is Religion the ONLY factor that influences morality?
Humans have always used religion or the belief in a superior being to determine good and evil.

What if the serial killer or yahoo boys are irreligious? Or are serial killings and fraud exclusive to religious people?
So if a serial killer is irreligious that makes his action good? I am trying to understand your point.

But it is.

Certain tenets of Sharia define actions like alcohol consumption/ dressing as evil with consequences but Southern Muslims disagree and are rejecting it because they believe differently... So who is evil amongst both? How did Southern Muslims come to the conclusion that certain tenets of the Sharia are not evil/ bad? I mean, the same religion.. If they all agree about Sharia why the push back from Southern Muslims?



Stop underrating the power of the human brain!
Rejecting certain religious teachings is not evil. How is that hard? Jehovah witness don't celebrate Christmas, That doesn't make them evil. Some Pentecostal churches don't believe in the Trinity, that doesn't make them evil as well. Some churches permit jeans and trousers for ladies others don't.

Hahahaaa..You and who?

Religion is a social construct and more importantly, the idea of morality isn't exclusive to religion. Religion can influence morality, however, the same morality is influenced by other factors. Let me ask you, what is morality? Is morality the action or the inherent intention/ thoughts?

A person harbors the thoughts/ intention to kill but has not killed because of his religion, would you say that person has good morals?
Our current morality is shaped by religion. Religion(Christianity) is the biggest factor to our current moral standards. Without religion you have no basics to say something is good or evil.

Your question is using the religious angle and thoughts and intentions are judged as well so no.

I don’t need to explain why stealing is evil
Your reaction will explain it unless you are saying you will be happy afterwards
So reaction is what proves something is evil. So serial killers that kill people and feel no remorse that means they did good? Yahoo boys that are happy after catching out that means it's good? The fact you cannot explain why stealing is bad without using a religious concept proves my point.

Exactly when you need religion to tell you good or evil then there’s problem.
If I steal your property I don’t need any holy book to prove to me I have done you evil
Then explain why stealing is evil?

The embolden is grossly false. If we go by your understanding the world would become chaotic because of the different interpretation of evil. The word "evil" has evolved over centuries even before the advent of religion. Religion, did not define what evil is. Religion may have influenced the definition of morality but not good/ evil. Law and Religion are 2 different concepts, don't confuse yourself.

I have asked you, how about those who do not identify with any religion? How do they decipher between good and evil? Religion is a human invention, how did man survive before the advent of religion? In the Sharia issue between the North and South, who defines what is right or wrong? I mean, we have 2 groups practicing the same religion but different acceptance of what is good/ evil.
You and I know evil is a religious concept. Every society in human history has had their views of good/bad shaped by religion. It is obvious that humans need an higher authority to unite around a shared morals. The laws you are talking about was shaped from religious concepts.

I don't see the Sharia thing between the North and the South a matter of good or evil.

Roland17:
Japan is one that comes to mind. Humans survived before the creation of religion because as humans we adapt. Religion, especially it's abuse, in some ways undermines the cognitive abilities of the human mind. The idea behind religious morality is primarily hinged on the fear of punishment and consequence from a higher being. Essentially, man is held back from committing evil because of that fear, not necessarily because they don't believe in the evil. I used the ongoing Sharia situation between Northern and Southern Muslims as example.
Every morality has it's punishment and fear factor. The reason people obey laws is due to fear and the punishment that comes with it.

Roland17:
I have strong personal values that are guided by ethics and influenced by upbringing and life experiences. There are people/ countries who are irreligious, or have a high percentage of their population that don't identify with any religion, what are they guided by?

Religion is a perfect example of social construct and since it is plural in practice, the definition of evil/ good becomes subjective and that is why we have laws. A perfect example is the ongoing Sharia issue between the North and Southern Muslims..

This is why 6 pastors can read the same verse and end up with 6 different interpretations.
You are misunderstanding my question. Evil is regarded as a religious concept. So without belonging to a certain religion you can't understand the concept of evil.

Saying you don't need religion to know good and bad is like me saying I don't need the law to know good or bad. If a law was passed down today that abortion is legal or killing is legal does that make it good or bad?

What is the concept of evil without a religious context. How do you decide what's evil?

This one is bad too but Madrid are just worse. Madrid have robbed Bayern three ucls by cheating. Cr7 won’t even be mentioned near Messi if not for Madrid’s fraudulent activities. We all can see how useless he is for Portugal in tournament. Ronaldo only had one genuine season that he was really good which was 2007/2008 for Man U, the rest was stat padding in dubious way.
Show me how Madrid robbed Bayern 3 times. The greatest robberies in Champions league history all belongs to Barcelona and Messi hence the name Uefalona. Am not going to be wasting my time replying the other gibberish you included.
