What IS good, and how do we determine it?

A big part is also believing that morals do not change. I am not dodging your question. Merely explaining my belief system as a Catholic. Smile

You're simply restating that you believe morality is absolute because you believe it to be so. So what? You still haven't explained why you hold that belief.

I see. And you think that your Catholicism is the result of a rigorous analysis, and not the result of your upbringing?

Forgive my skepticism.

You didn't answer my question: how many religions did you examine in the same depth as you examined Catholicism? And what were the bases for you rejecting them?

Whereabouts in Texas? I'm on vacation right now, but I live in Spicewood, about thirty minutes outside Austin.
