Christians, what is your VERY BEST arguments for the existence of God?
RE: Christians, what is your VERY BEST arguments for the existence of God?
@flying skeptic- was that to me? What you're referencing is not a moral absolute, it's a societal local moral. I see it as scalable from
0- no moral
1-subjective morality
2-societal morality (local)
3-societal morality (universaly)
4-absolute morality
most people fall under 2,3and 4 in some level, based of the situation. to say a moral absolute doesn't exist is facetious,bcause at the very least it exists as a concept nad that's how I'm using it here. As a concept for honing or personal morals into a grander perspective and a more objective tool. Christians shouldn't get their morals from the Bible, morality is, at it's core, subjective and Christians should use the laws written on their hearts by God as a standard, the same as atheists (they just claim that no one wrotethem there).
I of course fundamentally disagree with the jean-jacques rousseau quote. I've seen time and time again, left to their own devices the majority fails regularly to be self-less while all at some point can not help but take for their own. I think society is a reflection o self and that's why jean-jacques rousseau sensibility movement with high emphasis on subjectivity and introspection was such a goo step to improving society.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
