These are things you not only accept as 'moral codes' but you don't even question them. It's nearly 'inherent' via your culture and upbringing,
and,
so much that you haven't even questioned them. Of course they are good! right?
You are probably scoffing in disbelief that I'm even talking about these as being questionable!
You have these 'moral presumptions' because of the Bible. You enjoy the benefits they bring but want to disassociate them from the source. Joker face is on you after all.

Is it? Because everything you said there doesn't have anything to do with that...

Well the Bible is a pretty awful place to get your morals from if you go by it wholeheartedly. No doubt you pick and choose the "nice" bits like many others.

Actually, idiotic half-witted 'atheist' websites are a pretty awful place to get your information from.

But let's save time and get to the heart of it:
By what standard do you judge some Jewish Laws as 'awful' and others as 'nice' anyways?
What standard of morality are you using to make those judgments?

How do you know I'm Atheist? Another silly Christian presumption. Morality comes from a more animalistic place. It's deep within. Because let's face it, a book isn't going to tell people what to do. People know the so called morals of the Bible, but how many actually follow them? Apart from the ones who pick and choose

The Celtic people had strong morals before the idiot jesus cult arrived from the middle east.

Yep, Christians seem to think they invented a conscience or something.

You and the other one mistakenly believe that Christians or Jews believe morality came from the Bible.

Having said that, Celts had moral standards that you would find absolutely horrifying today. You would say are 'Immoral'.

And you also have this question to answer first:
What do you mean by 'strong morals' and this is asking you by what standard do you judge them as 'strong'?
By what 'measure' are you judging their morals as 'strong' or not?

Try and answer that.

I don't but your rhetoric is parroted from silly atheist and antichristian propaganda.

No it isn't.

Morality comes from a more animalistic place.

What do you mean by 'animalistic'?

It's deep within.

That is what the Bible documents and claims for. Judeo-Christian thought (others too) but that it is an inherent moral compass.

Because let's face it, a book isn't going to tell people what to do.

It most definitely does guide people. the foundation of your society based on a book.
But it isn't the 'book telling' anyways. Nobody thought the book itself was a 'person'.

To save time let's get to your 'winking' crap. You saw a website (or a comedian who saw a website) listing laws given to Israelites and then what is (or is not) for Jews and Christians entering the New Covenant.

This lame thing where Ricky Gervais or someone says "They follow the part about no gays but wont choose the ban on Shellfish".

Oh no. It turns out you are ignorant.

But what I'd still like to know is by what authority can you make these moral judgements?
How do I know your 'deep animal' judgment of bible morality is right?
Or better?
You can claim to have superior morals but how would we decide that? By what 'ruler'?
