Does religion have Monopoly on Morals?
#5
A religion may attempt to establish it's own groundwork for what is or is not immoral, however this does not change the fact that morality itself is a social construct developed by culture, not religion, religion is just an influencing factor in the shaping of moral views.

What religions do have is a monopoly on is Sin.
Sin is a crime against God, and as such can only exist within religious context, and only within religions that believe it is possibly to defy or affront God in some way.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.
