''Some words are painful to me too, but not because they are words of truth. And not because I am morally superior than anyone else.'' Who decides what is moral?

That is a great question, sir. Having the power to judge morality might be a different thing. The authorities in America, the corrupt churches, schools, the people on the streets who will torment and judge you every day of your life, they decide. Your question was answered, if you ask me, when Jesus was mocked by the so-called leaders who brought an adulteress to be stoned to death. The great Jewish leaders, his peers, were setting him up! What happened? HE was sitting on the ground, and drew in the dirt. The judges were being judged. If people cared about knowing right from wrong, or had any concern about morality, they would not need a creator. There are people smarter than I am who were skeptics. Immanuel Kant was a skeptic. Here is what he said: “Two things fill the mind with ever new and increasing admiration and awe, the more often and steadily we reflect upon them: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me. I do not seek or conjecture either of them as if they were veiled obscurities or extravagances beyond the horizon of my vision; I see them before me and connect them immediately with the consciousness of my existence.
