Humanity Is My Religion


I was reading an article on "morality"...do you need religion to be a moral person? Basically the discussion centered on the fact that humans seek happiness...and happiness requires one to live in peace with each other...and thus humans by nature are moral. Morality means we seek to live honestly, supporting those around us and seeking support in return.
Religion provides a skeleton for teaching morality but, we all know people who are not religious who are moral and we know religious people who are not moral. Which brings me to the place I currently reside...that of a moral person who believes in God...a God, who believes in humanity and thus I pray to the moral health of humanity.
