Atheism/agnosticism?

[Bathsheba]

I was speaking in broad terms... have often heard the term "human race". I guess it's a misnomer?

I guess what I am trying to say is that there are rules that man knows he must follow that man himself did not devise. I of course mean mankind. We do not follow these rules because they always benefit us, we often follow rules that inconvenience us but which we know are The Right thing To Do. I just want to know where these rules came from. They often to seem to be like the laws of physics. There really seems to be more than one kind of "reality"... our reality and an "ideal reality". Some of us try to ignore anything beyond our own reality... but anyone who has a conscience I think feels that greater reality pressing on them everyday as we make a thousand decisions about what is 'right' and 'wrong' each day.
