CMV: You should not use religous texts to directly support how you feel about a moral topic

To clarify, I am not saying your views can't align with those of religious texts. I am saying that when you justify any action or belief it is very ignorant to simply source the Bible, Koran, Torah, etc. 

I say this because if you truly believe in what your religious text is saying, you should use logic and reason so that everyone can meet on a mental common ground. By simply sourcing the religious text you are only alienating people who may not be in your religion. 

Lastly, I'm not trying to just shit on religion. I think that story telling is much more powerful than simply stating a moral lesson, and that because of this stories of religion helped shape the world we live in today. However, this should not make religion the absolute factor for whether something is right or wrong.

That's only true in an atheistic perspective. 

Your reasoning is only true if there is no God. 

I'd say that if there is a God, then using God's word is pretty damn good reasoning. 

Sure, in your view religion may just be "storytelling" but to a Jew, Christian, Muslim, etc. they believe in them.
