The Morality of Creation It is said, usually by monotheists with pursed lips and dried out minds, that nature is a cruel deity. Indeed, it is so. Rather say, Nature is a deity without morality. So, surprised to say, are the Gods. Because morality is not the providence of religion.
Morality is the providence of humans, deciding for themselves what is right and wrong.
There is no inherent morality, given to us by God. Gods may give us instructions in certain matters, but they do not preach moral duties for every single individual. If ever they did, it was because society could not decide on a moral code of its own accord. More likely, the leaders who were determining the moral code wanted to give it the ring of sanctity. I do not believe that morality is a bad thing, or that we should all be amoral and do whatever we like.
