Answer:
“Are religion and ethics incompatible?”
In many cases I feel that way, yes.
The problem with religious ethics is that it is static. It doesn’t move with changes (or only moves very very very slowly), because it is based on a book that is written in a certain time, by certain (groups of) people, under certain circumstances. The ethics in that book may have been fitting at the time of writing, but that doesn’t mean that 50 years later it all still holds true, let alone 100 or 1000 or 2000 years later.
That means that with a changing culture, religious people are behind, because they keep hanging on to outdated ethics that once made sense but do no longer in a changed society.
I think actually that this is what I most dislike religion for: the rigid attitude towards their morals, and the conviction that ethics from an old book can ALL still hold today.
