WinstonChurchill: Thanks. I got the 'surveillance camera in the sky' line from a Richard Dawkins quote that I love that retorts the idea that you must have God to be a good person. I have become a big believer in the idea that you control your own destiny. Obviously things happen out of your control, but a lot of things in life you do have control over, and can choose to make the right decisions to better (or worsen) yourself.
Do you really mean to tell me the only reason you try to be good is to gain God's approval and reward, or to avoid his disapproval and punishment? That's not morality, that's just sucking up, applepolishing, looking over your shoulder at the great surveillance camera in the sky, or the still small wiretap inside your head, monitoring your every move, even your every base thought. - Richard Dawkins
There's another quote I love that I cannot find exactly, but basically says "You do good because you fear God, I do good even though I don't believe in God".
