This is such a brain dead take. All well adjusted humans have a basic set of morals. It allows our species to collaborate and empathize. “Judeo-Christian” is an alt right buzzword to try and jam religion where it doesn’t belong.
You can grow up Hindu and have good morals. You can grow up Muslim and have good morals.
No religion has a fucking monopoly on ethics and morality.
It’s also just plain wrong. The ultimate code of morals and ethics for Judeo-Christians are the 10 commandments. How many of those have the military broken?
But like...imagine if atheists, the godless heathens they are, with a moral compass centered around baseless, fanciful ideologies like humanism ran the country! The place would be a shithole where human life was valued because it was a human life and not because we ~~created god in our image~~ were created in the image of god. Blech!
South Park has a great take on this.
