Rhythm Wrote:I'm wondering what about this whole moral compass and divine command business would be capable of compelling worship. Doesn't work for me, but you're of the opinion that it would work for you. Why?
Because I'm wired that way biologically -- the urge to do "good" -- where "good" seems to be in most cases the thing that helps us survive better. Therefore, if I knew 100% that my moral compass isn't compatible with the commands of God, then I would have to follow the commands while ignoring my moral compass in order to achieve this "good standard" of morality, assuming God knows best and his commands really are the best way.
