The statement "there is an objective right and wrong" is similar to the statement "there is truth" or "I exist." You cannot prove any of these "logically" however who is ultimately the insane person, the one who claims that child rape IS always and everyhwere wrong, that I exist and that there is truth, or the person in the loony ben who raped a child becasue he claims there is no objective right and wrong, and it was sujectively right to hm, and that truth doesnt exist, and he doesnt even exist. Who is insane?Then I can't have made my point well enough. If a god is the source of morality why is it not possible to prove these things?
