I think the reason why I follow by what is right or wrong because if I don't follow what is right or wrong for the religious, I get penalized for it. I get people looking at me differently, speaking harshly behind my back, hell stabbing me in the back. I lose the ability to possibly get a job, and live my life the way that I want it. Even though I'm not religious, doesn't mean that I don't respect someone elses life(one of the religious laws). Hell, I probably respect it more then most religious people because they are afraid of what that person represents or what they know. Why do I believe in Monogomy? I know that polygomy works for some people. For me, I'm a jealous person. I wouldn't be able to stand sharing, or being shared. As scary as it sounds, I'd like to live a normal life, and if I didn't follow your( or other religious peoples believes, then I'd not be able to live my life to what I enjoy.
The morals that you say are inspired by religion work for me. I've tried going against the grain enough in my life. Sure it's fun some times, but I'm growing up and respecting other people and their things.
