>>>I'm saying that if a person's morality is not based on the Bible, it is a wrong morality and in the end will lead to eternal punishment in Hell. I think all people have some sort of morality - but - again if it's not a Biblical morality it is immoral in the site of God.

>I don't think I completely understand your question (sorry.) Are you asking if I think I hold the answer within myself for these things? If so, I did not make any of this up on my own. It's all in the written word of God (the Bible.) It's what God has to say - not just me...If I misunderstood your question, please ask again...
Repeat: "are you assuming that non-religious people have no morality?", specifically not "in the sight of God" (who won't answer), but in your own view.
>>People know me around here - I'm as staunch disputer when it comes to equality of unbelievers with the rest. I'm specially aroused when someone implies that my lack of religion also means lack of morality. Or a lesser morality.

>Yes, you are human and as such are a sinner (Rom. 3:23) and are subject to pay the penalty for that sin (eternal punishment.)
OK, I have nothing against such a broad definition, which pretty much includes everybody, willy-nilly. As for the exact amount of payment, of course - I don't believe so, and don't mind your believing either. I do mind when you propose rules for everybody, when these rules should pertain to members of one particular faith.
IMO, being a member of any church is a matter of choice; setting societal rules should be a matter of consensus or other democratic process.
