For sake of argument, give two possibilities.
There is a spiritual world, there is an objective living morality light, and a believers can be in contact with a Divine Guide who manifests both outwardly and inwardly the path towards God and various good acts that has been revealed to the heart of the divine Guide.
Now assume for sake of argument, there is no spiritual world, no Guide, etc. Can an Atheist traverse objectively morality in the same way, and does goodness exist in the same way (stages, inward reality, exalted ranks, etc)?
We both seemingly acknowledge "goodness", but our understanding of the reality to me so distinct that it has no comparison or similarity.
We grow up, we take morals of our parents mostly, then society, and some we decide on our own. How does this compare to morality and goodness through vision through a Guide of God that calls toward God and manifests spiritual states and actions, and guides on how to act?
One clearly results in everyone thinking their opinion is right, belittling other opinions, one culture thinking they are superior to another culture and so much people trying to impose their own sense of morals on others.
The true way if God exists to be righteous would be to guard regarding God and seek the means toward God (Guides of God to be obeyed).
Now for the sake of argument, say Deism is true. We have the same problem as in Atheism. Everyone is left to their opinion and follows their desire without guidance from God.
