Notes on Argument for God Based on Morality

Argument for God Based on Morality

  • Premise: The universal human belief in right and wrong suggests an objective standard of morality.

  • Implication of Atheism: If God does not exist, then morality is reduced to mere personal preference.

  • Objective Wrongdoing: Certain actions, such as murder and injustice, are recognized as objectively wrong, not just personally disliked.

  • Source of Moral Standard: The argument proposes that God is the source of this objective moral standard.

  • Question: Can morality exist independently of God?
