Why not?
Because if God can decide what morality is, then it would be arbitrary as acknowledged by philosophers of both atheists and theists. But I argued it's not arbitrary. Are you aware of the Euthyphro dilemma. It's suppose to be a proof that morality is independent of God but really I'm using to show that it linked to God and God is eternal morality or eternal morality exists in him.
Why not?
If God can create evolution, and evolution can create morality, then it follows God can create morality. Therefore it follows from this premise 1 that evolution cannot create morality. That and whatever structure of the brain that evolution can produce, God can surely create...
Based on what?
This is on intuition/faith/properly basic knowledge, objective morality cannot be proven by rational arguments.
