How Does A Liberal Know Right From Wrong?

Since most liberals have no God and believe Christians are bad people, where do they turn for questions of right and wrong? How can the liberal really know right from wrong? What makes something wrong in the liberal mind? What is the liberal "rulebook"?

    Ever hear of the Golden Rule.

    It has been a basic part of every civilization since the dawn of time.

    [The Golden Rule is an ethical code that states one has a right to just treatment, and a responsibility to ensure justice for others. It is also called the ethic of reciprocity. It is arguably the most essential basis for the modern concept of human rights, though it has its critics.[2] A key element of the golden rule is that a person attempting to live by this rule treats all people, not just members of his or her in-group, with consideration. The Golden rule appears to have an evolutionary basis, see Reciprocity (evolution).]

    I'll explain for you

    Since morality and ethics are man made they exist as a contract between individuals in a much larger group.

    In its most basic, morality and ethics are enlightened self interest; if I am not the strongest fastest smartest person in the world with the most loyal friends I stand to lose as much if not more than I gain from stealing as others will be able to steal from me. Thusly I know it is in fact my best interest that I am not permitted steal so long as no one else is either.

    Religion plays no greater role in enhancing morality, in fact I find it hinders it because persons often clear their minds of tough ethical and moral questions leaving it all up to some deity to put right in the world. ie. the folks that cry bloody murder when wronged but don't exactly have to think twice about wronging someone else. God understand them, and that's all that matters.

    In short 'the rules' come to me the same way they come to you. Through agreement via social contract.

    positioned down the flavour help! you have had waaaaay too lots. reality verify: Madoff is a Democrat. Now Democrats desire to offer amnesty to illegals and supply them citizenship in six years. Democrats are criminals. What they say isn't good intentions. What they say is a slick sales pitch to trick you into permitting them to thieve your funds. each and every notice they say IS A LIE, just to objective to ROB YOU. i think of you'll be able to desire to take a relax and picture approximately it. you are the form of individual who could purchase 4 bottles of snake oil earlier you tried it, considering you're afraid the snake oil peddler won't come back for an prolonged time. EDIT: Newsflash: 9 out of 10 of the greater countries that grant national well-being care are EXPORTERS. they have a commerce surpus, at the same time as we've 1000000000000 greenback commerce DEFICIT. we are in a position to not have adequate funds national well-being care until eventually we decrease way down on our imports.

    For your information, yes, I am a liberal, but I am also a Christian. And I get down on my knees and pray everyday —— on my own turf — on my own time. One of the things that I pray for is that people with power will get good sense, and that people with good sense will get power… and that the rest of us .will be blessed with the patience and the strength to survive the people like you in the meantime.

    Wow, talk about a logical fallacy.

    Even children know right from wrong. One does not need a religion to have morals.

    Liberals don't know right from left, up from down, or right from wrong.

    It's due to a narcissistic mental illness that believes that the liberal is the center of the universe.

    Liberals' only standard is their "feelings". Liberalism is not based upon goodness, knowledge, or principles. It is based solely on personal feelings. This is why they justify abortion, theft, corruption, and any wreckless behavior. They think they answer to no one.

    They do not believe in the universal law of consequences.

    Most liberals try to adopt parts of the Christian Worldview without admitting it.

    The hardcore ones don't believe in good or evil. They just believe in...survival I s'pose.
