Re: Morality is social not subjective
Hi Huntard,

They believe the rules come from God, and so are absolute and unchanging,
Which is exactly what I'm arguing against. The simple fact is peoples morals have always been changing, and will continue to change forever more.
Peoples morals have always been changing because they have no higher authority to answer to than themselves.
I would agree with you that without that higher authority which you deny, morals are competely subjective.
Since man has become as gods morals are determined by what each individual determines them to be, for whatever reason they determine them to be.
That is the reason there can be no agreement as to what is right and what is wrong.
God Bless,

"John 5:39 (KJS) Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."
