The more important question is "can we be good with God?" Morality and righteousness becomes pretty phony looking when the promise of eternal reward for such behavior is offered, and eternal damantion for diversion from such behavior. Remove that reward/punishment, and people are/do good for it's own sake.Do you seriously believe what you wrote? You must live in a relativist utopia. So--God should remove punishment from people who commit unrepentant murder--he should just let them into heaven and that will make people do good? What are you smoking?
