"we could just as easily write another that said the opposite and it would be just as valid."

******************

Especially if God is directing the writing, you really get a lot of validity.

"I don't think the same can be said for Atheists and Agnostics. What is your basis for these?"

OOps it looks like I barged in, in the middle of things...again. Well, I believe in God but am somewhat of an agnostic/skeptic about atheism. And I figure some if not most atheists and agnostics have self evidence of the human condition including an intuitive/instinctive knowing of what are the rights and responsibilities of a human being. They simply don't use scriptural evidence to confirm what they already know. The one's who post on this thread claim a moral foundation that is similar to my own but insist that it is a social invention, developmental, and historical. Most deny self evidence is a real phenomenon...which I must admit is confusing to me.
