[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 2728621, member: 18914"] Where they actually get it is from the divine spark put in them by the Creator whether they acknowledge it or not. What they credit for it varies from person to person - in days gone by many an atheist admitted openly that they basically adopted Christian morality but without any belief in a deity. Nowadays, since pride is one of the overweening sins/characteristics of us as a people, it varies widely but many arrogantly attribute their system of beliefs to themselves - as if they just invented all of their core beliefs. There are very few people whose belief system is their own creation - most still have some kind of a watered down Judeo-Christian base of beliefs. [/QUOTE]
