I mean, don't you have any ethical concepts outside of this fairy tale of yours?

1. It's evolution that is the fairy tale, not the Bible
2.Mankind is inherently sinful because of the fall of Adam and Eve.
3.We have all been given a conscience to tell us the difference between right and wrong, as perverted and marred as it is by sin.
4.I would like to believe that my conscience would not permit me to commit murder.
5.If evolution is the truth then from where does morality come? Why is it even illegal to kill?
6.If evolution is true and morality is decided by the majority, then if I could convince the majority that U have no right to live any longer and should be exterminated so as to comply with the "survival of the fittest", then I suppose that it would be acceptable and permissible to snuff out your life, right??????

No, the Bible says "man has the work of the law written on his heart so that he does by nature the things of the law" which means a knowledge of right and wrong is hardwired into us so even if there was no Bible, my conscience would tell me it is wrong to lie, steal, murder etc.
The reason many people ignore this inner voice and go do as they please is that that think they can get away with it or they believe there is no God to answer to so why not?

Huh? I think there's plenty of history to show that Christians go out and kill people BECAUSE of the bible.
