Originally posted by whodeyGood point. It is unfair to judge people good or bad when they have been given no moral guidance. Punishment from God for being bad when you had no chance of knowing how god wanted you to behave, or indeed that god existed, is simply cruel.Why did he keep himself and his moral guidelines a secret and then punish people who didn't follow his secret rules?
