My ethics come from person experience and from the study of 
philosophy, history, and all religions in general.

Jerry Springer is an immoral show that preys on peoples 
failings and those in society who are looked down upon by
people who feel the need for proof that they are better 
then some lesser group. 

Corporations are greedy bastard that practice neither morality
or ethics, and whose priority is self-preservation and greed.

I find it interesting that questioning the bible produces such
knee jerk emotional reactions in some people. 

Just because I question the bible does not make me an immmoral
person, nor does it mean that being "humanist" is somehow
ungodly.

God supposedly made us in his own image, and thus we are 
intelligent and aware because of his actions. So I fail to see
how having the intelligence to question people (read the church)
with a long history of immoral behavior is "unchristian".

If that makes me a Loser, then so be it.
