Hello, I’m new here; this is my first post and I’d like to weigh in on the subject. A lot of the issues being raised on this topic are impossible to answer or comment on without a complete understanding of the nature of God. I don’t think a human being can understand God’s true nature any more than a single cell creature could understand ours.
The problem with the concept of objective morality is that without God, there is no authority for objective morals. No matter how difficult it is to live out, the absence of God (greater authority) results in morality being subjective.
Now the question is, Should I be so arrogant to say that my moral judgments are what’s right for all cultures and people to follow, or acknowledge that anyone else’s moral judgments are just as valid as mine?
