I never mentioned that my religious teachings originated from religion, however I received my teaching via religion, with my mom as my teacher. And I believe my mom, like you believe in 'non-believing.' However I am curious how you came to the belief that morals were note disseminated by religion teaching.

Well excuse me for being thoroughly confused by that statement. I mean, it's so spectacularly contradictory and nonsensical.

Explain to me how one believes in non-believing. I don't have the vaguest idea what you mean by this.

My friend belief is colloquially terms for belief in god...you do not believe in god, therefore you beleive in non-belief.
I am not here to question your belief, whatever they are...I think you are more of a skeptic than a non-beleiver. But to each his own.

Again, I am telling you that I never MENTIONED that my religious teaching oiginated from religion...however I received my teaching via religion. Don't get lost in the subtlety and get confused into thinking that this is a contradiction. Slow down...read a bit closely. I know that you are in a hurry to condemn my views...but...try to look smart in so doing.

No, you seem to imply that "believing in non-belief" is itself a religion of some kind since it is premised on a 'belief'. This isn't about questioning my views, though I welcome such queries and questions.
But this illogical fallacy seems to give enormous comfort to religious people who seem to think that everything and every thought requires a 'belief' system and that this somehow legitimizes their faith and/or religion.
My own personal view is that all the evidence I have look at thus far suggests to me that it is more probable than not that religion is man made rather than being revealed by a celestial deity.

You'll have to do better than this.
I'll repeat what you wrote and which is your case to prove:
"Religion is good. From religion we learnt all the sciences we know today. I understand that early pursuit of education was initiated via religon. There is where we were taught our morals and that is where our values were inculcated. We must not, and cannot allow, the demented, the misguided, and the crazies to triumph over our judgment of all religionists."

Okay,
So then where does your religious teaching originate from?

I'll get back to this discussion either tomorrow, or next week, or whenever it is that I have the time. It's been much fun.
