My understanding is that before we are born, there is already an inherent conscience that guides us. The one that makes an innocent child cry in front of his quarreling parents. The discomfort that a child feels when his parents tells him to do a wrong thing. The force that makes a fetus move away from the instrument that intends to abort his birth. The force that makes one rebel against society that violates a natural law. That is the conscience Rev. Phillips is referring to when he says we get our conscience from God. That is the Holy conscience in everybody including the Atheist whether they like it or not. This kind of conscience led migrants to rebel against the social conscience of the old world and founded what is now the government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
Mr. Keats is referring to the social conscience. An external conscience that we adopt or reject based on our best judgment that is already inside.
I am afraid the US will not continue to be as strong as it is if she continues to kick God out of the American society.

woohoo im a nut job! allright!
oh wait..i already knew that.
but that has nothing to do with me believing in God...
so christians have no morals without God?
do you honestly think i was christian my whole life?
Do you honestly think i always beleived in God?
Nope.
Ive tried other religions, Messed with the occult, and even considered satanism at one point in my life.
But oddly enough through all that my morals stayed intact.
My morals today are the same as they were before i decided to give my life to God almost 6 yrs ago.
It is easy to be like everyone else to follow a path that is mostly tread upon...
but it takes a strong person to beleive in God and walk that very narrow path to Him. And while I may stray from that path once in a while...it is enough for me to beleive in my heart that i will be forgiven and that He will always love me.
so go ahead..and call me insane..i do not mind.

All humans get their morals from "theory of mind" or, if you like, empathy and similar emotions that evolve with social animals like us. This is because our survival is tied to a social group (eg. tribe) and not the individual. Some are born without this; they are called sociopaths and can become very dangerous individuals...
It has nothing to do with dogmatic religious beliefs.

Well let's see, I got as far as the title. "Christians are crazy."
Yeah, that sounds like a real scientific, completely objective video, I'll put that on my "to do" list to watch.

I watched it. The video was stupid. What if your parents have no morals? Then what if you develop no conscience? Our prisons are full of people like that.

-barbie thot the narrator is a psociopath[please pardon spelling , thanks]
-wife 'plans' on looking later
Christians get their morals[differentiation of right , or wrong] from GOD or the Bible.
................ verseing.....................................
Atheists getting from parents. Plus matureing plus developeing their conscience.
GOD gives the HOLY SPIRIT = the inner conscousness.
Knowing the difference between right or wrong is raised with people from through their life styles plus the HOLY SPIRIT.

I began to watch it but then shut it down when the speaker started to knock Jehovah God and Christians.
Blasphemy is not something that I will entertain. My loyalty and dedication is not to imperfect man who offers no salvation and no everlasting life, but to whom that can and does offer life; Jehovah God.
Anything that comes up against our Grand Creator must be shunned and rebuked. I hope everyone comes to know this, but sadly about 90% of the world's population will not. This includes those claiming to be Christians but proving false to its power.
Most people that pronounce to be Christians are not. Atheists are definitely not Christians, and the whole of false religions is misleading nearly the entire inhabited earth.
Many who say they are Christians give "TRUE" Christians a bad name because they brag and boast about their so-called Christianity or they make public spectacles of themselves in order to "be noticed":
“Take good care not to practice YOUR righteousness in front of men in order to be observed by them; otherwise YOU will have no reward with YOUR Father who is in the heavens. Hence when you go making gifts of mercy, do not blow a trumpet ahead of you, just as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be glorified by men. Truly I say to YOU, They are having their reward in full. But you, when making gifts of mercy, do not let your left hand know what your right is doing, that your gifts of mercy may be in secret; then your Father who is looking on in secret will repay you.
“Also, when YOU pray, YOU must not be as the hypocrites; because they like to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the broad ways to be visible to men. Truly I say to YOU, They are having their reward in full. You, however, when you pray, go into your private room and, after shutting your door, pray to your Father who is in secret; then your Father who looks on in secret will repay you. But when praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words. So, do not make yourselves like them, for God YOUR Father knows what things YOU are needing before ever YOU ask him. (Matthew Chapter 6)
It is not a good idea, questioner, to be posting that blasphemous video to the public at all. You do Jehovah God no good service while you only inflame and boast the minds of the non-believers who mock God, and those false Christians who become inflamed and hostile.

It is utter garbage; as to compare Christians to having a DSM aka "Mental Illness Bible" diagnosis for all the reasons it states do not reflect any CHRIST following person. But I have seen it for myself, that Christians are being led by deceit into forced evaluations, and because these nut-cases known as psychologists, bow to their DSM and the evil inside their wicked hearts, they slap a "condition" on normal, GOD-loving ppl.....and LORD please forgive me when I say with MUCH INDIGNATION......

TWO YEARS OLD! **** THE ORDER, THE FREEMASONS, THE ILLUMINATI COVERS.....AS THEY KNOW NOT THAT THEY ARE PAWNS OF LUCIFER, AND AN ABOMINATION TO GOD ALMIGHTY; GO STR8 TO HELL ALL YOU WHO SEEK TO HARM THE INNOCENT, TO SET UP YOUR POLICE STATES, TO CORAL THE MASSES INTO THE CAMPS YOU ALREADY ARE BUILDING...**** YOU! TONY, FOR FURTHERING THE EVIL AGENDA....
THE LORD ELOHIM, YHVH; HE IS MY ROCK, MY FORTRESS AND MY DELIVERER...HE IS MY STRENGTH, IN WHOM I TRUST---AND HE WILL NOT HOLD BACK HIS WRATH MUCH LONGER, I THEREFORE PLACE MY UNWAIVERING TRUST IN MY GOD, AND PLACE NOT FEAR IN A MORTAL MAN INDOCTRINATED BY DEVILS, WHO CAN ONLY KILL THE BODY~ FOR I LAY DOWN MY WILL TO THE GOD OF ABRAHAM ISAAC JACOB, KING DAVID, ELIJAH, ELISHA, JOB AND ALL THE FORERUNNERS WHO WERE MADE MARTYRS BY THIS WORLD SYSTEM....**** YOUR MARK, **** YOU AND YOUR SLANDER.........I TRUST IN HIM WHO IS HOLY, AND MERCIFUL AND RIGHTEOUS, AND HAS MY NAME WRITTEN ON HIS HEART, WHO WILL BE A SHIELD TO ALL THOSE WHO FOLLOW CHRIST JESUS IN TRUTH....... I'M SICK TO DEATH OF YOU EVIL BASTARDS GETTING ON HERE AND ******* WITH US, YOU ALREADY HAVE YOUR REWARD, YOU SOUL-LESS FIENDS, ENJOY YOUR ALLEGIANCE TO LUCY, IT WILL BE SO SHORT LIVED.
GOD IN THE HIGHEST, HOLY LORD JEHOVAH BE PRAISED, FOR HE ALONE IS WORTHY AND HE ALONE IS OUR PROTECTION, AMEN.
