Quzah.
If you paraphrase the 10 commandments as "do unto others etc" and interpret 'others' to include all living creatures you have a tenet everyone can embrace without the need for the creation of a 'god'
By adopting this as the official policy of humankind it voids the "god doesn't exist therefore his rules don't either" defence.
Having said that, i'm not on a soap box disputing the existence of 'GOD' but i'm a seeing is believing kind of guy.
Anybody read "jesus the man" by Dr. Barbara Thierry? Thoughts?
