Yes, yes, yes, tpaine. Only those things which ultimately cause harm to you are bad. We get the idea. You have the right to whatever morality you wish. YB

I do realize that, tpaine. That's why I keep saying that people have the right to choose whatever morality they want. As to which moralities are superior, that requires an underlying morality (ideas of good and bad) with which to judge them. My plea to you would be to not reject everything that is religious (and in particular Christian), before fully understanding it.
