Re: Chairty
I must be from another dimension. I couldn't care less whether anyone knows that I have given money to charities. As far as I can see, wanting recognition is nothing more that a human ego trip.

Most choose otherwise because they don't want to be under any authority other than their own. This includes most who claim to be christian.
I disagree. Take it from one who spent years in both subordinate & supervisory positions, that is the US Army. I find no conflict with authority as long as the superior is qualified for the position. I also find no conflict with asking the authority figure to explain an order that is either vague or seemingly illegal such as an order to kill all the people in a village including women, children & the elderly which have no military importance. What I resent is misuse of authority.

Without God laws of morality there is no reason for morality to exist.
So are you saying the Mayans or Chinese or Hindis were immoral since they had no access to your god's laws?

To be a Christian you have to be living a life like Christ did.
That might explain why there is a rise in Atheism, a large amount of so called Christians don't act the Part.
