Re: The Bible: Real, Fiction, or somewhere in between?
"You are what you do."
But it's still not a guarantee. Three men commit murder out of a sense of justice: one because he believes he has a right to unrestrained freedom, the second because he believes the victim is possessed by the devil, the third because he believes the victim has dishonored his daughter. The outcomes are identical, and yet we feel a personal belief system grounded on "justice" is still a pretty good start -- it's certainly not wholly invalidated by these actions.
