Point 2 "I believe I am able to decide what is right and wrong for myself"


This can’t be true, because morality can differ from man to man, from society to society and from period to period. What was seen as wrong yesterday, may be seen as good today and the other way around. Without an absolute Lawgiver, moral judgments are just subjective opinions, with which your neighbour may or may not agree. Without the God of the Bible there is no objective and absolute standard for morality. This means that an objective science tells us what is, not what morally ought to be.

If we are nothing more than bags of stardust, there is no way we could judge something morally wrong or right.

Dostoyevski: “If there is no God, everything is permitted”
