Yes, it appears I diametrically misinterpreted what BC was saying.  Sorry.

I still object to the phrase

Morals and judgement are good things.

I think we can agree on some other phrasing.  Perhaps something like this:
   One should not use formulaic proverbs in place of moral judgement.

Getting back to the nominal subject of this thread:  It is (as the
judge noted) the height of irony when people who profess to take
a literal, formulaic, fundamentalist approach to their morality
find it necessary to bear false witness to support their position.
