But since the beginning of the world, those things have been easy for people to understand. They are made clear in what God has made. So people have no excuse for the evil they do.

No excuse huh?

Yeah other than the Bible being poorly written, massively ambiguous, full of horror, violence, rape and contradictions and having no evidence to back up it's claim and just expecting everyone to "trust" it's a magic book.

Oh and other than the fact that what the Bible defines as "evil" and "sin" is often not evil at all...

Oh and other than the fact some people die before ever having even a chance to read the Bible...

...oh and other than the fact many people lived and died before the Bible was even written...

So other than that, yeah, no excuse.
Paul in that statement is not refering to the bible. Because when He wrote this their wasn't a bible for those type of people. Paul is talking about the intrinsic sence of right and wrong god placed in all of us. Paul is saying because 'EVIL People' ignore their initial sense of wrong doing, and they embraced their sin, God turned them over to their sin meaning to them their 'evil' becomes moral and right, and the things of God become evil. that is why they so willing embrace the list of Evil things he goes on to list.
