But where does your moral code come from? You said yourself that you don't believe the Bible is the word of God in our earliest discussion on slavery. We both agree that slavery is bad. My view comes from my personal ethical code; where does yours come from? You seem to be saying that if you're a religious person you don't actually need to think for yourself - that doesn't sound like a benefit of religion to me!
