what are we supposed to say again when christians ask us where we get our morality?
RE: what are we supposed to say again when christians ask us where we get our morality?
My position is that nobody, Christian or not, has access to absolute objective morality.

If I ask a Christian how they know what kind of killing is considered murder, chances are they won't resort to an invisible silent God for the answer. They'll try to rely on their reasoning faculty instead. Well, that's an indicator of subjective morality, not objective.

So whether the Christian likes it or not, we're all in the same general boat with regards to the question of morality.
