Good and evil exist with or without a god.
What's the big deal?

Why do we make up rules identifying good and evil and think they are serious?

One could easily assume & as i pointed out before, almost all the big stuff contained in all the scriptures has to do with the material plane, God creating the world then our living abundantly in this world, having lots of cattle like Job in the end , seeing the vines & olive trees being fruitful, your wife bearing many sons and it all goes in a merry circle in the land of milk & honey.

The first rule making begins small , all the way back to earliest ancestors naturally but no less unimportant , mostly patriarchal but there's evidence of God as Godess worship going farther back up to Egyptian belief so some matriarchy plays an early role too. And we have the early statues to prove this , long before JOB i might add.

Man thinks, observes & acts in the world of seasonal change & migrating animals , he has to feed himself thru the hunt & gathering, so there are rules for all these things, rules for the hunter , rules for the gatherer, rules for migrating , rules to make fire, rules for where to bed down at night so you wake up alive in the morning.

Waking up alive is important , i'm sure you can get this much...
