Are you trying to make the argument that without Christianity morality wouldn't exist?
Nowhere in my comment did I mention Christianity. But congrats on outing yourself as another Christian-hating anti-theist.

You're right... which is why things like crucifixions, poena cullei, bestial executions and the boiling brazen bull were common forms of punishment in those societies:
