Right on bro.

I wrote that being good because of the fear of hell is insincere goodness. Opinions are what I think. I don't have an opinion that I never did drugs, for example; I simply NEVER did drugs, which is called a fact. I never said I was perfect. I made my original post for this reason: I thought it was ironic that the pastor's kid who was talked about in this video was so troubled, while I, an agnostic's son, have never been in trouble. Try to comprehend what I'm writing, without the knee-jerk reply.

I am sure you think these are facts and not opinions.And, for the record, I don't believe you are perfect. Far from it. I think you are conning yourself into believing in your own self-righteousness.If the standards that Jesus stated and the apostles wrote about in their epistles are applied, you as well as I fall quite short of them.You said goodness based on belief in God is insincere. Few things are as insincere as the human heart no matter how much empathy one claims to have from there.

I find it very funny that you think these things make me sound almost perfect. Most of my friends and family are this way, yet you are the Christian (I'm guessing) and can't believe it. High opinion of myself? I was stating facts about my life, not opinions.
-
When you said you don't lie I thought you meant you were always like that your whole life. So, you did lie at least once.While drinking isn't a crime being drunk can be, depending on circumstances. Drinking alcohol can lead to drunkeness hence my point there.You made yourself sound almost perfect and I've never known a perfect person.Someone who has as high opinion of themselves as you seem to, I have met many such folks.
-
I never tried drugs, never smoked, never drank alcohol, and I never stole anything. I have lied in the past, when I was a kid, but I never said that I didn't. I said I DON'T lie (present tense), which is true. You've never known anyone like me? Really? Where have you been spending your time? (by the way, drinking isn't even a crime)
-
Never committed a crime. Not one, not ever. Hmmmm I find that a little hard to buy into.Never did any drugs, never drunk,never stole, never lied, not one time in your life. Kinda hard to believe.

I never committed a crime. I never cheated on my wife (12 years married). I don't lie. I'm happy. And, by the way, God has never been a part of my life. Go figure. Empathy guides my morals, not ancient texts. You don't need a god, nor the fear of hell, to be good; in fact, such goodness as that is insincere.
