Without God the concept of good & evil in actions or consequences
all become subjective and agreeable by society. However we all judge by
the straight line – Absolute Moral Law. There is no question that
societies have different interpretations of morality but if you examine
the following sentence you will see the illogic of thinking that
societies determine morality. "The vast majority of the people in our
country participated in that evil deed." If morality was up to society,
that sentence would never make sense, but we know that morality is
beyond societies and such a proposition is possible.
For example
child abuse, rape or genocide – would never be acceptable to anyone on
the planet if perpetrated against them or someone they love! Even if a
whole society agreed on an immoral or evil thing – They could never
justify it as right or good but as collateral or a necessary evil under
the circumstances.
If there was no such thing as absolute morality
then there would be no 'right' or 'wrong,' just things that you or your
society happen not to like. Murder and Rape would not be wrong; they
would just become manmade objections. The question then becomes: 'If man
is the measure of all things which man? -Which society? If someone with
enough power happened to like rape and murder, what right would we have
to impose our morality on him? What would be wrong with the person or
society, with the power, imposing their morality on you?
If objective
moral values cannot exist without God, and objective moral values do
exist, then it follows logically that God exists. Moral objectivity
doesn’t exist outside of humans – it is inherent and therefore
programmed within us (biologists call innate). Where there is
programming there is a programmer. This innate ability is of an advanced
consciousness and has a purpose.
