So I've been told that I might have a misconception and I didn't want to put this in philosophy because it's on account of my faith as a Christian.

Here are my thoughts on morality
There is subjective morality- what I feel internally to be right and wrong as according to my experience and beliefs
There is societal morality- what is commonly accepted to be right or wrong for a people within a particular society
There is universal morality (possibly)- things that rational people of any time and any place find right or wrong
There is objective morality- A being I call God exists outside the universe that influences us through the Holy Spirit to inform of objective morality.


Do I fall under the misconceptions you were referencing?

"God" is merely a claim you heard in the past and bought from someone else. There are 7 billion humans and not every one of them buys the same super natural being claim you do. 

Maybe you need to consider all that is is your own fear of being finite, and a reflection of your own human qualities in fictional form.

If you don't  need to plop in Thor as a gap answer to why lightening happens, what makes you think in a 13.8 billion year old universe humans are some sort of apple of a super cognition's eye? 

Our species evolved to socialize and THAT, not old mythology, not old writings, but our evolution, is where we develop our sense of morality.

If this "God" you think is real is so "objective" then why don't we still live under kings? Why don't we still own slaves? Why can women vote now?
