Blessedj01 : I understand what you are saying. But don't you question the logic of God sometimes?

With these things in mind, I know God being in control is a good thing.

i think another factor is morality is not a single entity, there is no line over moral and immoral, indeed its evident with muslims and christians, pagans and jews, one may perform a rite that the other considers immoral, one may advocate a life choice condemned by the other.
Morals are ultimately shaped by experiences, a christian gets much of there initial view from the bible, yet those who claim to believe can be very immoral.
The things you see,hear and do shape the person you become, consecentualy your morals are shaped.
I could look at parts of religious text.
Kill disobedient children.
Rape a woman (and her daughters)who wrongs you.
Sacrifice animals to god.
Kill non conformists.
Behead homosexuals.
Enslave only your neighbouring nations people.
I regard these as immoral.
Chances are most people reading it do too, yet iv taken that from the quaran and the bible(old and new)
Communitys existed before these religions. The romans did fine, the nords, the picts, the celts, native americans.
None of there beliefs had rules like the bible, they did fine.

If people needed god for morality, then every atheist would be jerks without a consciousness which is definetly NOT the case. It is just a trait that we human have that sets us apart from the rest. Did anyone here had to be told that it was wrong to murder your mother (i know that it´s a strong example)?
My problem with using the bible as a guide of morality is that you pick and choose a lot of the morality lessons that the bible gives. People ignore things like "stoning rape victims who has been raped inside the city walls" or "kill diobedient children", but when it comes to homosexuality, people point at the bible and says that it´s immoral according to it. If the bible is the word of god, you can´t just pick whatever fits you...unless YOU are in control of your own morality and values.
