Christian nations and contemporary barbaric ethics

Christianity gives ethics , so they say.

But ethics is just another word for habits, public habits expressively. For a habit to be public it does not mean it is philanthropic, charitable or honourable for a human.

Ethics can be acceptable to a specific social group no matter how small or big, are subject to different perceptions in different times and places and people.

There is no real value coming out from ethics, it is just an indication of social norms, traits and acceptable acts of the social group.

Religions tout they are source of ethics for the society, thinking this is an invaluable and irreplaceable activity for the human. This is a real fallacy as humans create ethics and not ethics create humans. A strong example is the split of the christian population in thousands of sects based on acceptance and rejection of norms and ethics between other christian sects. Sectarian violence is also based to the excuses of different ethics and norms.

The extremism in the religious level is present in the christianity and crimes are norms in the christian ethical borders as the inquisition is still active.
