Humanism is a Better Morality System than Any Religion

As I stated in my opening , The Bible and Christianity are not synonymous. You cannot argue Christianity to further reinforce your arguments. Christianity has moral values in it but God and the Bible are the ultimate source of morality. God pre-exists everything in the universe, so therefore without God there would be NO nature. God is the focal point that we have to look at for everything good. If God exist then moral values and duties do exists. Since God does exist then the moral values and duties we uphold as the human race are objective. From a theistic point of view God is everything that is good, and as someone who believes in God they will strive to be good in everything they do. Their reference point to base off of is GOD. God represents everything that is good so they will strive to be as close as possible to God. I can secular humanist the modern day new atheists. If you assert that God does not exist then therefore moral values do not. Humanism also claims to be a religion not sure if you knew this. Humanism is legally declared a religion, it was a landmark case of Torcasco v. Watkins in the US Supreme court. Modern humanists will deny because if it is declared a religion it is subject to the 1st amendment. And as a religion in Humanism will worship humanity. This religion had a catechism, sacraments, a sacred calendar, a priesthood, prayers and something imitative of the Trinity. It also had a social system of which Comte was the chief planner. There were people in the Bible who were humanist. Eve was the very first humanist because she ate the forbidden fruit and wanted to be like God. The religion of humanism are based on faith assumptions like every other religion. Humanist cannot prove God does not exist. They cannot prove God does not intervene in human affairs. Humanist assume man has no spiritual nature. They assume that absolute moral values do not exist. They assume there is no sin and no eternal salvation. They assume there is no heaven or hell. They assume there is no life after death. These are all faith assumptions that act like every Judaeo-Christian religion on the planet. If absolute moral values are not existent on the basis of God then what is the value of human beings? What makes us so special? Why do we have moral obligations to do anything? If we have no absolute moral values then we have no moral accountability for anything that we do. Humanism denies what we instinctively know to be true. We know that murder is wrong, theft is wrong, and rape is wrong. This is not simply because of human condition but because of moral law given to us by God. Humanism offers no answer to the human condition. The bible offers answers to the human condition. Mankind"s task is to seek and find God, , our true redeemer who offers us a better than earthly inheritance. As for you closing statement; it tells me a few things. 1.You have not read the Bible. 2. If you did you read is with a bias to destroy it. I am assuming you did because humanist are anti-Bible. 3.If you did read it, you did not understand it. I will ask if you reference the Bible give me the verse. But for the sake of this argument and because of this debate only being three rounds I'll refute everything you said. First and foremost let me say that the Old Covenant laws we are not bound by. The laws were for the nation of Israel and the since the coming of Jesus we are not under the same laws. We are saved by grace. Anyways let me refute what you stated. The rape of women I assume you are referring to Numbers 31. Israelite's were allowed to take female captives and rape them? This passage has nothing to do with raping captive women. The soldiers were commanded to purify themselves and women captives. If it was rape it would have violated the commands in Leviticus. The women who were taken captive were never referred to as sexual objects. They did eventually marry the Israelites but they were never forced into sex. Slavery in Bible is not the same slavery that has existed in past centuries. People were not enslaved based on race, or their nationality. People were enslaved based off of economics at the time. Slavery was a matter of social status. People sold themselves as slaves when they could not pay off of their debt. Doctors, lawyers and even politicians sold themselves into slavery to pay off their debt. The Bible is not a way to reform society but to salvation. The biblical point on issues is to approach from the inside out. A slave can be a brother of the Lord. Slave traders are seen as ungodly and sinful in the Bible. Slaves are actually referred to as "bondservants" and their are laws on their treatment. I could go on about this but I think you get the point. Why did he command the mass genocide of people (including children)? God knows the future of everything. We must understand that God's ways are not our ways. His ways are heavenly while our ways are earthly. God is without fault and we are with fault. He knows all and does all for a reason. If Israel did not carry out God"s orders, the Amalekites would come back to trouble the Israelites in the future. This comes from the book of Samuel. Saul lied and said he killed everyone but the king Agag. There were enough Amalekites to come and take David and his men captive. If Saul had followed orders this would have never occured. In fact a few hundreds years later they tried to exterminate the Jewish population, but again if Saul followed God this would have never happened. God commanded the extermination of the Canaanites, to prevent further evil from happening. Israelites failed and we know what happens next. But why did God command the killing of children? Children are NOT innocent and they would have grown up to be as evil as their elders at the time. They would have grown resentful to the Israelites. God prevented evil from happening. I assume you do not know the story because you regurgitate "violent verses" you read online from the bible. God created both men and women in His own image and made them equal custodians of all His creation. But, because of their disobedience, God punished Adam and Eve and evicted them from the Garden of Eden. Eve's punishment was to suffer pain in childbirth and be ruled over by her husband. Bible promotes feminine freedom, dignity, and honor. Romans 16:1-6; 2 Timothy 1:5 (Philippians 4:3 (Acts 18:26; 21:8-9) Not everything that the Bible designed for God"s people Israel under the judges or under the kings or that God designs for Christians under the apostles in the New Testament is the same. Putting to death adulterers, putting to death homosexuals, putting to death the sons who curse their parents, all these penalties belonged to a particular season in the history of God"s dealings with his covenant people, and those dealings have changed dramatically with the coming of God"s Son Jesus Christ into the world. The New Testament way of dealing with gays is with church discipline. It is important to understand that homosexuality is a sin. The difference is gays have an opportunity to change their sinful ways by understanding Jesus. God offers ample opportunity to change, and it is only after you ignore opportunity to change will you be damned to hell. Anyone who opens the door to Christ, will inherit that better country, which God has prepared for those who love Him and are called according to His purposes. How much more excellent is this than all the proud and lofty goals contained in secular humanist manifestos?
