Topic | 'The atheist can't follow the evidence where it leads.' ~ William Lane Craig |
TurtleInFreedom 07/05/21 10:38:44 AM #27: | @UnfairRepresent I don't think you've really understood what Craig was saying there. Subjective morality means that morality does not have an underlying foundation. Morality working under pluralistic conditions is bound to have some foundational conflicts, making it inferior than objective morality. It doesn't make it flawed, but it certainly has a weaker foundation than objective morality. Does this make theism more credible? Not really, unless you hold morality to some kind of value. But if you actually take a disposition, whether that be atheism or theism, this would subsequently mean that you either hold morality to a type of standard- or you do not. So in a way you are arguing two things here: that subjective morality is flawed but that this doesn't inform theism in any way, and that morality has some kind of value. But if morality has some kind of value, who or what is informing us of it? There's a reason why there are professional philosophers of religion who debate this stuff. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
