Herb, " if a man does NOT have
religion (of some sort), then his morals are based only on what he
believes to be right or wrong. Good point. But those who believe there
is nothing greater than ourselves and when we die it is "game over" must have
faith that all men have some base set of morals. I have faith that all
men (and women) have morals. I guess this means I should stop carrying my
.357? :^D

Right after I hit send, it occurred to me, I did not directly answer
your question.
No, I am not of the opinion that man would not have morals without
religion. I AM of the opinion though, that if a man does NOT have
religion (of some sort), then his morals are based only on what he
believes to be right or wrong. And, as we know, human nature is a
fickle
entity, and personally guided beliefs are subject to change on a
whim.
