I'm convinced of one of two possibilities.
1. There is a God and much of the Bible is correct. In it, God revealed how we should live our lives to produce the best possible results. Maybe there are some translation and interpretations errors, some things might have been lost over the centuries etc.. but it's mostly right.
2. Thousands of years ago the very smartest men observed the world and saw the behaviors, values, attitudes etc.. that worked well and lead to good results for their society and what lead to conflict, disease, poverty, war, violence, mayhem, crime, illegitimacy etc.. Then they made rules to help produce the best possible results and called the rest "sin".
Our society dismisses the rules. Now we are getting the results we should have expected.
