Objective Morality?

RE: Objective Morality?
(September 21, 2011 at 5:08 pm)lucent Wrote: People have a choice as to how to react to what their conscience is telling them. How they act is not a measure for the existence of an absolute standard. It is your god given conscience which tells you what that standard is. That people can compromise, or sear their own consciences is a given.
What a meaningless statement.
Again I ask, where is this "Absolute Morality?
Lots of people are quite happy to murder and pillage in the name of your god, who I might add is rather partial to genocide according to your bible.
Morality exists only within people, nowhere else. It is thus utterly, utterly subjective.
And you have yet to show otherwise.
Quote:The change in the OT law was due to the change of priesthood from levitical, which was for Israel, to Melchizedek, an eternal priesthood. When the priesthood changed the cermonial and sacrificial laws were made obsolete because Jesus fulfilled all of those things. This doesn't mean none of the laws from the OT are valid, just the ones that apply specifically to the observance of jewish law as it applies to the levitical priesthood. As far as a law against homosexuality, that is in the NT as well.

As to christians not having to follow the OT.

"Do not think that I [Jesus] have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke or a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. (Matthew 5:17-18)

Or doesn't that count either?

P.s that bit was from a CHRISTIAN website http://www.answering-christianity.com/ot.htm
