I was wondering if you would care to comment on a statement you made on another post.
I think my head is clear enough now to absorb your thoughts on this issue.
Can you please explain what your idea(s) of morality are based on? If we evolved from creatures that operate on instinct, not conscience, how is it that we have developed the ability to use conscience? Where did morality find its beginning? Did one ape finally decide that killing another ape was wrong? Did one decide that it was wrong to steal another ape's supper? You know that my belief is that morality finds it origin in the existence of God. He has given a law, which therein establishes morality. Can you explain where you think morality comes from?
As always, I wish you peace and God's blessings.
P.S. Did your DW get a chance to watch the Pope's visit on TV?
