This is a blog to discuss philosophy, chess, politics,
C. S. Lewis, or whatever it is that I'm in the mood to discuss.

Do religions agree on morality?
Do religions agree on more than they disagree with when it comes to morality? Do any religions, for example, say that murder, adultery or bearing false witness is OK?
The ancient pagan fertility cults that practiced infant sacrifice and encouraged temple prostitution are the exception to the rule, along with the Aztecs with their human sacrifices.
But I can think of no religion today that allows for such things.

CS Lewis in The Abolition of Man thought there was a great deal of commonality.
