I do believe in a moral code, but I think that is solely of mankind. No animal feels guilt(that we can tell). Though I try to be as good as I can and never wrong anyone, but thats not because I think god will punish me if I dont, but because I believe we should be good to each other. Im a 17 irish/scottish male born and living in the US if that would make any difference. Could anyone give me some names of some religions/beliefs that might suit me? Thanks a ton.
karma (i believe it's tied into buddahism but idon't believe in that.. i just believe in karma.... do to others as you'd have them to do to you.... do good (out of the kindness of your heart) and it will come back, do bad, and it will come back to bite you in the ass, sometimes (and often) 3 fold....

needless to say i live by my conscience.... if it seems wrong to me, i'm not gonna do it... if it seems to be the right thing to do (even if someone else doesn't agree) i will do it....


btw animals do feel guilt.. look at a dog, he shits on the floor, you can call his name in a certain tone and he knows he fucked up.. that's guilt.... if they ddin't show guilt, they wouldn't come wlaking towards you with those eyes... they'd come running up happy and giddy as usual.... they know when they done wrong, and they have the body language to match. you're just never gonna see a dog commit suicide cuz he killed an innocent cat... lol...
