Ethics and religion

There is a philosophical page which says "Religion does not always correlate with ethics". It illustrates that people become good and evil regardless whether they are religious or not. I beg to differ.

Most religion teaches you to be good. If you do evil after knowing what is good then you defiled it purposely.  It is not the fault of the religion.

Those who do bad without religion simply does not care what is good or bad thus does not even have ethics.

Ethics (moral philosophy) is not equal to religion. Religion does guide people to have good ethics (but not all religion does so). Ethics is a practice to know what is good and what is evil. It does not tell you what you should do after learning it. Religion does.

Thus religion is a higher order of ethics which teaches you to do good instead of evil. I would say "religion correlates with good ethics". Don't bad mouth it if you choose not to follow the good teachings.
