First off, if I don't follow the commands of the church, I feel guilty. This is because at one time in my life I had to use some reasoning to discover if these rules were worthy of my respect, useful, efficacious. Eventually, they became more than rules, and a part of what I believe is 'good'.
​
So, morality is learnt!

Morality; the ability to, as Ringo says, 'own ourselves' and to live by following the consience above and beyond the dictates of any code.
​
Where do you think conscience comes from? I contend it is learnt.
