Can Creator create morality from nothing?
#12
RE: Can Creator create morality from nothing?
Two compulsive...I think you misunderstood my argument. I'm not trying to prove if God exists, then morality is objective/absolute. I'm rather stating, if morality is objective, then it's eternal. The argument relies on "If God were to exist, he cannot create objective morality" and "Morality is objective" to prove this. The conclusion seems to follow, from these two premises...that morality is eternal.

You can also substitute "goodness" and "greatness" as neither of these two can be arbitrary as well. And if you assume that there is infinite potential to these, and are eternal, you will reach conclusion of God.

This argument is a long proof of the famous premise: "If there is objective morality, then God exists." or "If God doesn't exist, then there is no objective morality".
