>Religion and State exist to give objective morality to the world.
>Without the freedom to be benevolent on one's own terms, true virtue does not exist.
Thoughts?
Not many of those on this board, friend.

No. My virtues align with that of Religion and State. We're either gone, I would act in an identical matter to how I do now.
The presence of Religion and State ensures that people do not confuse morality with being relative, therefore preventing people from justifying immoral actions (such as what youre trying to do now.)
In other words; people share common morality, so they band together to hold accountable those who think stealing and murdering and is ok.

Justifying what immoral action? My argument is that someone can only be virtuous without the promise of a reward (afterlife, karma) or without a risk of punishment. That isn't to say that one's own beliefs can't align themselves with religious or state law. I'm not justifying any evil, because what I see as an evil is still something I will try to avoid.

Ah.
I was looking at it from an other point of view. I figured you were thinking like pic related to prove a point or something.
