For the record, the point was any religion can provide "high moral
grounds" for the people or not. You said several times without religion,
we could not have a social life, since there would be no ethics, since
there wouldn't be a supreme being to punish us afterwards. History
proved countless times, religion can not provide a high moral ground for
the society, and this is not related to any verses of Koran or Bible.
The thing that I talked about people can act badly, and still can claim
they are believers of a religion, even they can say they act since this
was the want from the god they believe. Whether they will be considered
true believer or not, does not make any difference.
