Biblical Inerrancy - mandatory to be Christian?
RE: Biblical Inerrancy - mandatory to be Christian?
The argument obviously hinges on moral relativism entailing nihilism. There is no way that someone can compare what you wrote, which is joining all males and females and then seperating them to joining moral relativism and nihilism. They are clearly and obviously connected. Look at this:


1. Moral relativism is the state in which there is no absolute moral authority. (MR -> No MA)
2. If there is no absolute moral authority, there is no way to resolve competing moral claims (No MA -> No mc)
3. If there is no way to resolve moral claims, all morals are equally truth from an objective standpoint (No MC -> ET)
4. If all morals are equally true from an objective standpoint, all morals are equally false (ET -> EF)
5. If all morals are equally false, a state of nihilism is reached where people have no obligation to obey any morals. (EF = nihilism)
