When a religious person does a good deed its with an ulterior motive When an atheist does a good deed it's simply for the sake of it Strongly disagree with this tho. Way too black and white. There are way more motives for doing good deeds than just getting into heaven. Like getting good publicity and because it ultimately comes back to you.

Kami_no_Kami 02/27/20 7:17:44 PM #26:	Those who dont believe we will be rewarded with eternal reward do good or at least not bad because they are rewarded by the way it makes them feel or by gaining some sort of power (political power, partnerships, tax write-offs, looking good to other people, not going to prison, etc).

fire_bolt 02/27/20 9:56:31 PM #32:	skermac posted... laws are bssed on morals which are derived from religion, It doesn't take religion to tell you hurting people is wrong. Just basic human empathy that most people start to feel as children. The pain and loss people feel in life makes them aware of how others feel pain and loss as well. So you treat others with the respect and dignity that you want. EDIT: This is why racism, classism, and any other way of seeing other people as less than you is so dangerous. It is easy to put aside that empathy for something you consider little more than an animal.
