My religious beliefs might be indirectly related to why I do things, but the REAL reason why I behave myself is because that is the way I was raised. Is that a difficult concept to understand?  |
You mentioned that you have respect for the rules. I merely pointed out to you that it is possible for someone to follow the rules like you without a religion or some force they surrender themselves to that tells them to do so.
No, not at all. Many people proudly tell us that was how they were raised. What we see is some other force guiding them as to what to do without independent thought as to why they are doing it. "I was raised to....." implies to me that you do what you were told without thought.
