Do unto others… is a good rule of thumb. I live by that. Forgiveness is probably the greatest virtue there is. But thats exactly what it is—a virtue. Not just a Christian virtue. No one owns being good. Im good. I just dont believe Ill be rewarded for it in heaven. My reward is here and now. Its knowing that I try to do the right thing. That I lived a good life. And thats where spirituality really lost its way. When it became a stick to beat people with. Do this or youll burn in hell. You wont burn in hell. But be nice anyway. — Ricky Gervais is the writer and star of HBOs Ricky Gervais Out of England 2: The Stand-Up Special.
