re: morality and Christianity
I didn't mean to single out Christianity. If he was a devout Muslim (not the radical kind, but one that believes in a higher power and that you will one day be held accountable) or was a devout Jew or whatever, I would think the same.
I believe that if a person really believes in God (whatever the religion) and that he will be held accountable for his actions, that that person will likely have higher morals.
If you don't believe that there is a God, the tendency is to do things that make you happy even if it comes at the expense of others. After all, when you and your family die, you will just blink out of existence. I think this probably motivated Saddam to take some of the actions he did.
I would hope that someone of real religious belief would never do things like Saddam did.
