If so, how can you claim to be moral?

I treat others as I wish to be treated because I believe that everything comes full-circle. If you are nasty, the world will treat you badly. If you are a good person, you'll have a much easier time in life.
Yes, bad things happen to good people, and visa-versa, but the more good you put out, the more good that comes back to you.

Easy. I've never committed a heinous act. I even have a pretty good reputation for empathy, kindness and compassion. My morality comes out of that, not fear.
I gave up the belief in eternal damnation more than a decade ago because it just made me miserably judgemental.

Well I don't believe in "eternal damnation" and I don't commit heinous acts so I guess that blows that theory. Of course I do believe in Karma but also I think I was raised better than to commit those types of acts.

No. I don't commit heinous acts because first, I have no desire to (I really don't - what would committing heinous acts accomplish?) and second, there's a concept called karma that I believe in. Yes, I know, this is somewhat along the line of eternal damnation, but since karma effects me IN THIS LIFETIME it is definitely something worth thinking about, in my book.

Am I moral? Am I any better than the serial killer? I dislike most people. Even though I do not wish to hurt anyone, I still think ill of most people. I let my personal hangups intertwine with their actions I find unfavorable, or just "them being them" and I think ill of them.
My point is, I don't claim to be anything but a devout pupil in the school of life, seeking something higher in myself that I know I am capable of (God)...slaying my own demons along the way. It is the only way.

I do not believe in 'eternal damnation'. What is considered 'heinous'?

No, it isn't.
It is, frankly, the last thing that keeps me from committing heinous acts.

Nope, the fear of feeling like an asshole and having other people look at me that way too.
