Absolute Morality
A good and concise response by Prof. Richard Dawkins on why morality doesn't need to be hinged upon religion.
Man is capable to determine his values and moralities, through logical, rational and critical thinking that does make sense.

The Indoctrination of Children with Religion
Despite ample scientific evidences and countless sound Theories, many still rejects Science and instead choose the word of God as the easy way to help them in their understanding of the Universe.
One main reason why so many have strong faith in God is due to the indoctrination of children. At that age, the developing mind is easily swayed into believing something that is both omnipotent and almighty. Children are less capable and also less willing in questioning their parents and adults. As a result, their mind is most easily influenced at that tender age.

Science is
Science is:
1. the study of Nature
From daily observations of natural phenomena, we can try to draw possible logical explanations (hypotheses). Questions that start with What, How, When, Where, and Who often circle around our curious mind.
A good hypothesis is one that can be rigorously tested using scientific methods, in order to derive evidence that either supports or rejects our hypothesis. This is also known as the Falsification Method, when scientists always subject their hypotheses to various empirical testing. An accepted hypothesis is one that stands such rigorous scrutiny. Even if there is a shred of evidence/data/observation that goes against our hypothesis, the whole thing falls apart (the hypothesis is rejected).
Hypotheses that are well accepted will eventually become a new Theory or Law (more commonly applied in Physics and Mathematics). However, this is not a permanent situation, as advances in Science open new opportunities to conduct new, more elaborate, and more accurate experiments.
This means that Science is never static nor dogmatic. Theories and Laws are being updated in light of new evidences and understandings (a Paradigm Shift).
2. predictable, reliable, and repeatable.
We can build upon present Theories and Laws, a working model to predict an outcome of related experiments and even other hypotheses. The outcome must be reliable, in the sense that results concur with the model. Else, again the Theories/Laws will be modified.
Last but not least, the outcome must be repeatable. Science is not any mumbo-jumbo that gives a whole lot of excuses in case the outcome is not as predicted.

The Pope Song (Warning - Possibly Offensive)
This youtube was created by Tim Michin, in response to the current and on-going sex scandal in the Catholic world, or for the lack of action taken by the Pontiff. This song very much reminds me of songs from the cartoon South Park.
Beware, the tune can be quite addictive.
The Pope Song
by Tim Minchin
Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucker, he's a fucking motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the fucking fucker
Fuck the motherfucker, he's a total fucking fucker
Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucker, fucking fuck the motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the motherfucking Pope
Fuck the motherfucker, and fuck you, motherfucker
If you think that motherfucker is sacred
If you cover for another motherfucker who's a kiddie fucker
Fuck you, you're no better than the motherfucking rapist
And if you don't like the swearing that this motherfucker forced from me
And reckon it shows moral or intellectual paucity
Then fuck you, motherfucker, this is language one employs
When one is fucking cross about fuckers fucking boys
I don't give a fuck if calling the pope a motherfucker
Means you unthinkingly brand me an unthinking apostate
And this has nowt to do with other fucking godly motherfuckers
I'm not interested right now in fucking scriptural debate
There are other fucking songs and there are other fucking ways
I'll be a religious apologist on other fucking days
And the fact remains, if you protect a single kiddie fucker
Then Pope or prince or plumber, you're a fucking motherfucker
You see, I don't give a fuck what any other motherfucker
Believes about Jesus and his motherfucking mother
I've no problem with the spiritual beliefs of all these fuckers
While those beliefs don't hit back on the happiness of others
But if you build your church on claims of fucking moral authority
And with threats of Hell impose it on others in society
Then you, you motherfuckers, can expect some fucking wrath
When it turns out you've been fucking us in our motherfucking asses
So fuck you motherfucker, and fuck you, motherfucker
If you're still a motherfucking papist
If he covered for a single motherfucker who's a kiddie fucker
Fuck the motherfucker, he's as evil as the rapist
And if you look into your motherfucking heart and tell me true
If this motherfucking stupid fucking song offended you
With its filthy fucking language and its fucking disrespect
If it made you feel angry, go ahead and write a letter
But if you find me more offensive than the fucking possibility
The Pope protected priests while they getting fucking fiddly
Then listen to me, motherfucker, this here is a fact
You are just as morally misguided as that motherfucking
Power-hungry self-aggrandized bigot in the stupid fucking hat
(Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the motherfucker...)
