Well, my "research" comes directly from my bible. God teaches many lessons in that book. Like when it is ok to by and sell slaves, or the appropriate punishments for -blam!- (which are very mild I might say), or what about that a woman can't teach anything because Adam came first. I really like what it said about being gay, i mean nothing like being put to death because you are an abomination right? The bible is an extremely immoral compass. I get my my morality by observing how my actions affect others, and using empathy to judge how they will feel. If my actions have will have a positive affect fine, if it's a negative effect like murder, or stoning a homosexual to death. It won't be something I want to do.
