We had this same discussion about morality the other day. Interesting, I didn't link it to religion, though I can see how you could. Maybe it's because of my church background and many of the moral issues that surface in the bible, I don't take a literal stand on.

So how do you convince people who are so bible blinded that there are much bigger issues? Or would those people argue that we are in these issues because we don't follow the bible more strictly? Interesting food for thought.
