Who shall inherit the earth

Have you ever thought to yourself, what would life be without religion?

What if there was no set of rules, handed down to you by a supreme being that clearly outlined how to live your life.

What if no one believed that their crimes would be punished, or their good deeds rewarded by a higher power?

Would you behave the same way you do now? Would u still forgive people, would u still believe that things will work out, while not doing anything to make sure it does?

Would you step on people to get where you want to be in life, or would you help your fellow men and women to be great.

What would stop you from sleeping with a man's wife...Ohh never mind..
What would stop you from stealing or killing....uhmm..scrap that too..

Where would you get your daily dose of hope and upliftment from?

What would you put your faith in? Yourself? Someone else? Material things?

Would you...be comfortable and safe with living in a world, where no one believed in a god.

What if you were not promised a place of eternal bliss for living a life that pleases a deity? Would you still be a GOOD person? Would you still hold your tongue? Would you still donate, volunteer, help?

If there was no religion...would you still be who you are....?
